Synopsis
Anchors Aweigh. On the Town. Hit the Deck. Hollywood has always known what to do with sailors on leave: Give 'em some pretty girls and some great songs and watch the fans line up to enlist! Hit the Deck hits all the right notes as three sailors (Tony Martin, Vic Damone, Russ Tamblyn) and three cuties (Jane Powell, Debbie Reynolds and Ann Miller) squabble, run afoul of shore patrol and, of course, fail in love to hit a parade of Vincent Youmans' tunes. Highlights include Miller's polishing the floor as "The Lady from the Bayou," Martin's romantic mastery of "More Than You Know" and the stage-filling rouse "Hallelujah." Music, romance, fun: Don't miss the boat!
