Many of the stars on the Warner Bros. roster make appearances in this lavish musical--including Humphrey Bogart, Bette Davis, and Errol Flynn--shedding their dramatic personas for song, dance, and hilarious comedy. The plot concerns an egomaniacal, mean-spirited movie star who is making life a living hell for the producers of a benefit show. Meanwhile, a nerdy tour guide is finding it impossible to find work as an actor--because of his strong resemblance to that uncouth film actor. That all changes when the producers decide to have the troublesome entertainer kidnapped...and replaced by his look-alike. Will the scheme succeed? This charming musical from Hollywood's Golden Age scored an Academy Award nomination for Best Song with "They're Either Too Young or Too Old." [More]

Reviews for Thank Your Lucky Stars
LIke all the Hollywood studios during the War, Warner mobilized its top talent for this song and dance revue, with Bette Davis and Bogart singing and Olivia De Havilland dancing.
It's all so gloriously unapologetic in its randomness, a cinematic variety show that allows stars to get silly for a good cause.
It's vulgar entertainment, but at least there's a few laughs over the stars ribbing each other and doing some acts.
