Sunny

To be near the fella she loves, an English bareback rider dons dungarees and cap to pass as a boy, stows away to America, gets caught, marries someone else...and finally ends up in the warm embrace of her beloved. Such fluffy foolishness is the plot of "Sunny," the Broadway smash brought to screen life by the irresistible Marilyn Miller, recreating her stage success in the title role. The sparkling Jerome Kern/Oscar Hammerstein lotto hardback score includes "Who?" and the title tune. And the lovely Miller socks'em over with her winning voice, exhilarating dancing skills, and infectious good cheer. If this is your first encounter with Marilyn Miller, prepare to be a fan.
