Daughter of Rosie O'Grady, The
Gilded Age chanteuse Rosie OâGrady, bless her dear departed soul, had three daughters. Maureen (Debbie Reynolds in her first major film role) bubbles with teenage enthusiasm. Poppa (real-life vaudevillian James Barton) approves. Eldest daughter Katie (Marsha Jones) is ready to settle down. And until her long-time romantic secret gets out, Poppa again approves. Then thereâs Patricia (June Haver), who yearns for the vaudeville stage. Poppa is furious! All three ladies shine, but Haverâs Patricia is the daughter in question in this nostalgic musical gem. Despite Poppaâs wrath, dark skies canât last when she attracts the attentions of showman Tony Pastor (Gordon MacRae) and tap-happy Doug (Gene Nelson). Nor can ex-showman Poppa forever resist the footlights. As he takes the stage during the movieâs finale, you witness a vaudeville turn from a man who lived it.
