Good News
With boundless enthusiasm and enough jive to meld â20s flapper giddiness with â40s swing, 1947âs Good News â the feature directing debut of Charles Walters (Easter Parade, The Unsinkable Molly Brown) and screenwriting debut of Betty Comden and Adolph Green (Singinâ in the Rain, The Band Wagon) â is âone of the best of the lighthearted rah-rah collegiate musicalsâ (Pauline Kael, The New Yorker). Peter Lawford (as a campus football hero) and June Allyson (sheâs the brainiac who tutors him) lead a high-spirited cast that includes Mel Tormé and Broadwayâs Joan McCracken. And The Varsity Drag and Best Song Oscar® nominee Pass That Peace Pipe stand out among the numbers that are all zip and joy. And the beeâs knees.
