The Movie Theater Mall : Anchors Aweigh(1945)


Anchors Aweigh is probably one of the best musicals ever written.Lots of singing and dancing in this one, especially by Gene Kelly. Two sailors go on liberty to see if they can find love and romance. They meet up with a woman who is trying to break into show business.

Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra make such a funny team. The songs they sing together are pure entertainment. Kathryn Grayson is gorgeous and really sweet.

On top of that,if you are fond of piano, you'll be amazed by José Iturbi.
But I think the sweet thing should be remembered is Frank Sinatra's playing piano and singing "I Fall In Love Too Easily".

Here you are! And good luck every music lover!
Lyrics by Sammy Cahn
Music by Jule Styne
Recorded by Frank Sinatra, 1946; from the movie "Anchors Aweigh," 1945
