This Wesley Ruggles souffle, in which Bing Crosby, Fred MacMurray and Donald O'Conner are singing brothers who... well, it doesn't much matter, does it? Every character and situation is written right in the middle of the performer's comfort zone (not that Fred MacMurray ever felt much stretched; he claimed that Billy Wilder was the only director who ever called on him to act).

I had a good time and can't remember much of anything. It's just the sort of movie with production values meant to anchor a film program you go to because of Bing Crosby and the next day you tell the guys about the Popular Science short or maybe the latest Popeye. With Ellen Drew as MacMurray's fiancee and Elizabeth Patterson as everyone's mother.
