𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗲: Charles Vidor (Gilda) directs this enthralling MGM musical-drama chronicling nightclub singer Ruth Etting’s rise to fame in 1920s Chicago. Cagney is predictably great as Etting’s crude gangster-turned-manager Martin “the Gimp” Snyder and Doris Day gets the rare opportunity to show off her superb dramatic acting skills as Etting. Robert Osborne once called this film Doris Day’s “piece de resistance“ and remarked that it is possibly the best film she ever made. Featuring more than 10 musical numbers including “You Made Me Love You,” “Ten Cents a Dance” and “Love Me or Leave Me”.
