light fun
20 September 2020
On an Arkansas farm, Katie Higgins (Esther Williams) and her family are swimming enthusiasts. Traveling tonic salesman Windy Weebe is taken with the beautiful farmer's daughter. He recruits her to swim the English Channel in a special promotion. The whole family comes across the Atlantic. Katie is pursued by Frenchman André Lanet.

This is bright. It's light. It's light-weight wholesome fun. Esther Williams is swimming around in the old style bathing suit. She even rejects the new bikini from Lanet. It has some light comedy which is actually a bit funny. It has Tom & Jerry. I'm a sucker for Tom & Jerry. It's not a classic by any means but it's still worthwhile.
