Melody Cruise (DVD)

A couple of millionaire businessmen -- henpecked Pete Wells (Charlie Ruggles) and happily single Alan Chandler (radio star Phil Harris) -- are voyaging home to California after successfully completing their deals overseas. Alan is pleased to discover that Elsa (Greta Nissen), the object of his pursuit across Europe, has the cabin across from theirs, while married Pete is horrified to discover a pair of scantily clad stowaways (June Brewster and Shirley Chambers) inside his suite. While Pete enlists the help of fast-talking ship steward Hickey (Chick Chandler) in passing off the girls as his nieces, Alan's romance takes a right turn when he enters the wrong cabin and encounters young schoolteacher Laurie Marlowe (Helen Mack). Executive producer Merian C. Cooper (King Kong) brings his gift for spectacle to this delightfully frothy musical comedy cowritten and directed by Mark Sandrich (Top Hat) and featuring a score by Max Steiner.
