My Dream Is Yours-1949


Well, this busy page gets your attention but it's a little much for one's eyes to take in. Promoted in the main here is, of course, Doris Day, whose 2nd picture this was, although she'd been big on radio, records and in personal appearances for several years. Her name at upper left slides into her picture and then a series of then-topical "flying discs" that lead down to the picture's title. There another disc points over to comic actor Jack Carson, who had also appeared with Doris her first time out. We're told it's in Technicolor. We see it's directed by the man who brought us CASABLANCA...although I'm not sure that's a selling point as it's hardly the same type of movie. It's a Warner Brothers picture and while that's downplayed until bottom right, it would have been obvious to many filmgoers since Warners had and made good use of one of the best stables of contract supporting players in Hollywood, several of whose names are seen here. 

Bottom line--It's made by people with good reps, its star is pretty and sings well.
I'm there.
