 Hello, Frisco, Hello November 26, 2008
This is one of my favorite movies. I love the songs and Alice Faye was always one of my favorite stars. There is nothing about this movie I didn't like.
Just as I remember it - In all it's glory!! October 12, 2008
I remember seeing this movie in the 40's when musicals were the top draws. How I wish they still made movies like this. Alice Faye and John Payne were wonderful stars & their singing of "Hello, Frisco, Hello" & "You'll Never Know" brought back wonderful memories. All the other musical acts & songs were great & the actors of that era, Jack Oakie, June Havoc, Lynn Bari & the others made for a most pleasant 99 minutes of movie viewing. I'm so glad it finally has been put on DVD.
 Enjoy it for the Vaudville it Offers September 2, 2007

After the first 30-40 minutes of "Hello Frisco, Hello" I was very impressed with the quality of the singing, dancing, and on-stage humor. This was going to be another one of those diamonds in the rough, I thought. It developed into another costumed love story and lost its' magic until it regained it belatedly at the end. Yet the first third or forth of the movie really ought to be seen by those who loved the old Vaudville song and dance acts of the past. Alice Faye is her usual melodious self this is probably one of her best movies. However, for me, Jack Oakie steals the show. His humor was something I expected but I never knew he was so light on his feet. He is quite a dancer and the dancing was the equal of the singing.
I watched "Hello Frisco, Hello" because it won and Oscar (for Best Song) and I noticed it was also nominated for Best Color. The Best Song Oscar is probably the worst reason to watch a movie (I can't see myself watching "8 Miles", for example) but I like the excuse that it gives me to see a number of old musicals I would have otherwies missed. I'm glad I had the opportunity to watch the beginning of "Hello Frisco, Hello", it made it worth sitting through to the end.

I purchased Hello Frisco Hello for my mother. She is just learning about the internet so I showed her how easy it is to purchase items on Amazon.
