Harry Warren is the most underrated of Songbook tunesmiths IMO. I would put him at the very top of the second division, just below the Big Four (Gershwin, Berlin, Porter, Kern) but up with Nacio Herb Brown, Rodgers, Arlen and Youmans. Glad to see Harry now has a fan club pushing him.

Definitely imitating Sinatra in his spot with the band. Frank was cresting his first wave of popularity, screamed over by bobbysoxers and even hoofing with Gene Kelly. Soon Johnnie Ray would outdo everyone in the sob stakes. Haymes fell somewhere between Sinatra's swing and Ray's soppiness.

Years ago I read Harry James biography. His band in the late 30s was first to hire Frank Sinatra, but after only a year or so, he agreed to let Sinatra out of the contract to go to Tommy Dorsey band. Harry James was married to Betty Grable for several years, but his gambling and drinking ruined the marriage. Dick Haynes was the lead singer after Sinatra was released. He and Betty had affairs for awhile too.

He was always more laid-back before Bilko, though with plenty of smart ploys and wisecracks. Like Lucy and Raymond Burr, he seemed to fit the small screen better.

And a nicely satirical staging to undercut the lyrics' romantic lushness, with Betty chewing away. Her character in this film is like a riposte to the reviewers who kept writing her down as a bit of fluff for homesick GIs, an over-promoted chorine with the looks and manners of an amiable hash slinger. You don't stay at the top in a triple-threat business for ten years if that is all you have to offer. Betty was the most underrated of the stars who broke through in the war years.

From 1:19:02 there is an unbroken two-minute shot of Phil Silvers expounding his theory about how to win a dame. Dick Haymes is filmed from behind with his head down, barely moving. This hints at an inability to handle reactions within a two-shot, one of the stiffest tests of a film actor, and it tells us why he never blossomed into an actor-singer like Crosby or Sinatra. Haymes delivered dialogue adequately but bodily he was a cigar store Indian. Many found his appearance off-putting; esp. as his face fleshed out and his toothy boyishness began to look incongruous, like Mickey Rooney after WW2. (Haymes was also a rather bad man, though few moviegoers knew that in 1945.)

@T Z Power, yes, but he was upcoming then, not fully established. Mature ditto. She dated both. Zanuck did cast men who were no threat to her star status, Payne being a prime example. Dan Dailey came closest to a regular partner on screen (five times) and that was not planned. Haymes is pretty subdued here, as if afraid to upstage the queen of the lot.

After "When my baby smiles at me" [1948],. Diamond Horseshoe is my 2nd best Betty Grable movie. A intelligent narrative that teaches you why education is so very important in life. A young man practicing medicine decides to abandon his career as a doctor for one in show business as a singer. But, it takes a strong woman to guide him and realize his true calling. Dick Haymes plays the aspiring doctor and Betty Grable the intelligent dancer. Packed with lovely songs and dances by the most successful blonde star, 20th Century Fox ever had, Betty Grable is a dream in Technicolor entertaining the audience with Welcome to the Diamond Horseshoe, Acapulco [my top fave], I wish I knew, You'll never know. Dick Haymes too chips in with her golden voice giving us a treat to those hit numbers: The more I see you and I wish I knew. I must stick my neck by writing that though Marilyn Monroe got top billing in How to marry a millionaire, it was the Fox Queen, Betty Grable who pleased critics and walked away with all the acting plaudits.
