THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS [1943 / 2015] [Warner Archive Collection] [Blu-ray] [USA Release] Humphrey Bogart Clowns, Bette Davis Sings, Errol Flynn Dances, and Everyone Has A Wonderful Time!
The stars come out to play in the joyous World War ll-era ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS.’ A breezy, behind-the-Hollywood-scenes story about young talents hoping for a big break glitters with specialty numbers featuring Golden Era greats. Highlights include Humphrey Bogart being out-tough-guyed by S.Z. “Cuddles” Sakall and singers ranging from the gifted [Dinah Shore and Dennis Morgan] to the good sports [Errol Flynn and John Garfield]. And Bette Davis’ witty, wry, jitterbugging rendition of “They’re Either Too Young or Too Old” by Arthur Schwartz and Frank Loesser is “the cherry on the top” (Clive Hirschhorn, The Hollywood Musical). Dig in!
FILM FACT: The song ""They're Either Too Young or Too Old" by Arthur Schwartz (music) and Frank Loesser (lyrics) was nominated for an Academy Award® for Best Music, Original Song, but lost to "You'll Never Know" by Harry Warren and Mack Gordon from the film, ‘Hello Frisco, Hello.’ Despite not winning the award, Kitty Kallen and the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra had a hit with the song. Many of Warner Bros. stars performed in musical numbers, including several who were not known as singers and feature the only screen musical numbers ever done by Bette Davis, Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland, and Ida Lupino. Producer Mark Hellinger and director David Butler both made cameo appearances in the film. The film utilised sets which had been built for the Warner Bros. films ‘The Green Pastures’ and ‘Wonder Bar.’

Andrew’s Blu-ray Review: With film ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS’ [1943] Farnsworth [Edward Everett Horton] and Dr. Schlenna [S.Z. Sakall], two producers who are planning a benefit extravaganza, want Dinah Shore, a singer on the Eddie Cantor's radio show, to appear in their benefit, but they must first make a deal with Eddie Cantor, who holds her contract. Farnsworth fears that Eddie Cantor will want to interfere in the production in exchange for Dinah Shore's participation.
Meanwhile, outside the Hollywood studio, aspiring actor Joe Simpson gathers a group of tourists for a tour of stars' homes. Although a talented dramatic actor, Joe Simpson is unable to find work because he so closely resembles Eddie Cantor that people start to laugh as soon as they see him. While Joe waits for one last customer, songwriter Pat Dixon [Joan Leslie] demands her money back from Barney Jackson, a talent agent who had promised to sell her song. When Jackson makes his escape in a taxi, Pat Dixon jumps on Joe Simpson's bus, mistaking it for another taxi, and realises the truth too late to get off. After Joe Simpson learns of Pat Dixon's problems, he offers her a place to stay in the Gower Gulch studio area where his friends, all aspiring entertainers, have built houses out of old movie sets.
Among the group are Spike Jones and his City Slickers, a goofy, energetic band, and Tommy Randolph, a singer. Tommy Randolph, an unknowing victim of Jackson's trickery, believes that he has a contract to sing with Eddie Cantor. The following day, Tommy Randolph arrives at Eddie Cantor's home, where Farnsworth and Dr. Schlenna are doggedly trying to obtain Dinah Shore's services. After some confusion, Eddie Cantor has Tommy Randolph thrown out of his house, and the producers agree to make Eddie Cantor chairman of the benefit committee in return for Dinah Shore's appearance in the show. Despite his promise not to interfere, Cantor makes changes in all the production numbers until Farnsworth, pretending to be a reporter, calls Eddie Cantor on the telephone and encourages him to tell his life's story.
When Pat Dixon learns about the benefit, she suggests that Tommy Randolph crash the performance and sing in front of a professional audience. With Pat Dixon's help, Tommy Randolph sneaks backstage, but is once again kicked out by Eddie Cantor. Pat Dixon is not defeated, however, and proposes that Joe impersonate Eddie Cantor. A few members of the Gower Gulch gang kidnap Eddie Cantor, to the delight of Farnsworth and Dr. Schlenna. They are nonplussed when Joe Simpson appears, but as his only demand is that Tommy Randolph be allowed to sing, they continue with rehearsals before the man they think is Eddie Cantor changes his mind. After all the stars who have assembled for the show perform, Tommy sings and is such a hit that movie mogul Jack Warner offers to sign him to a contract. Before the end of the show, Eddie Cantor escapes from his captors and returns to the theatre, but Joe Simpson continues his masquerade and joins the company for the grand finale.
Warner Bros. all-star extravaganza ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS’ not only served as a morale booster for the troops, it also succeeded as a charity effort, with stars donating their $50,000 salaries to the Hollywood Canteen. The musical numbers in the film hang on a flimsy plot about an unknown songwriter and an unknown singer (played by Joan Leslie and Dennis Morgan) who end up appearing in a wartime benefit show. Eddie Cantor plays a dual role, both as an over-the-top, egomaniacal version of himself, and as a sweet-natured tour bus driver who can't get a job as an actor because he looks too much like Eddie Cantor. The entertainer's self-parodying performance, along with those of beloved character actors S.Z. "Cuddles" Sakall and Edward Everett Horton, are very engaging. But the real fun of ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS’ is seeing Warner Bros. top stars kick up their heels in song-and-dance numbers.
Dramatic divas Ida Lupino and Olivia de Havilland chewed gum through a jazzy vaudeville number. Olivia De Havilland claimed the gum was her idea to disguise the fact that she was lip-synching her vocals, which were dubbed by Lynn Martin. Errol Flynn plays a boastful cockney sailor, lampooning his war hero image in the jaunty musical number, "That's What You Jolly Well Get." Hattie McDaniel and Willie Best have fun with a novelty number, Ann Sheridan sings a torch song, and Alexis Smith shows off the dancing skills that would win her acclaim decades later in Stephen Sondheim's Broadway musical, “Follies” [1971].
Appropriately, two of the biggest hits in ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS’ were performed by the founders of the Hollywood Canteen, John Garfield and Bette Davis. John Garfield made fun of his screen image, singing a tough-guy version of "Blues in the Night." Bette Davis wrapped her distinctive voice around a new song by Frank Loesser and Arthur Schwartz, "They're Either Too Young or Too Old." In the song, Bette Davis complains that her man is off to war, and that the only available men who aren't drafted are geezers or pups. The elegantly dressed Bette Davis enters a club looking for a dance partner, and ends up with young Conrad Wiedell (actually a real dance contest winner), who proceeds to fling her around in a wild jitterbug. Davis recalled in her memoirs that Conrad Wiedell was terrified that he'd hurt her. Bette Davis told him, "forget about who I am...let your instincts come to the fore, and just do it!" Conrad Wiedell did just that, and the number was a sensation. The song was Frank Loesser's first big hit (he would go on to write the songs for ‘Guys and Dolls’) and was nominated for an Academy Award®, losing to "You'll Never Know" by Harry Warren and Mack Gordon (from the film, Hello Frisco, Hello). Kitty Kallen and the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra had a hit with "They're Either Too Young or Too Old," and the song made it to number one on the radio programme, The Lucky Strike Hit Parade. Bette Davis would sing it many times over the years.
The real musicians featured in ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS’ didn't fare so badly either. This was Dinah Shore's film debut, and the reviews took note of her talents. The Variety critic called her “a standout” in her three musical numbers, and added, “she photographs well, can wear clothes that are keyed strictly to eye-appeal….from here on, this songstress is a natural for films.” Although Dinah Shore never had a big film career, she was very successful in radio and television. Critics also liked the antics of comic musician Spike Jones, and the singing of Dennis Morgan and Joan Leslie.

Blu-ray Image Quality – The 1080p black-and-white image for ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS’ is properly framed with an 1.37:1 aspect ratio and the results is simply magnificent as well as awesome 1080p image presentation, and the elements have been nicely cleaned up and fully restored. Contrast levels are superbly balanced. Blacks are deep and solid. Whites are bright, though never blooming. The image is razor sharp with good solid grain and virtually NO age-related artefacts to distract. Yet another image stellar Blu-ray performance from the Warner Archive Collection.
Blu-ray Audio Quality – The 2.0 DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack is of course limited by its source material, but I doubt that it sounded this good in cinemas in 1943. Every word of dialogue and all of the lyrics are very clear and understandable and the various orchestras sound good enough to make the musical numbers a pleasant listening experience. There is no hiss, crackling, distortion, or other age-related anomalies. Simply put, the audio is probably as good as it possibly could be, especially within the limits of the era's technology. All in all Warner Archive Collection have done their best to bring the sound experience as good as it can get.

Blu-ray Special Features and Extras:
Special Feature: Warner Bros. Classic Cartoon: Falling Hare [1943] [1080p] [1.37:1] [8:27] Cartoon directed by Robert Clampett, and starring Bugs Bunny in the Merrie Melodies series. Relaxing with a carrot at an army air field, Bugs Bunny is reading "Victory Through Hare Power," and scoffs at the notion of "gremlins," little creatures who is trying to wreak havoc on planes with their "dia-bo-lickal sabo-tay-gee." Bugs Bunny’s reading is interrupted by a clanging sound, and it turns out to be a little wing-headed being pounding on a bockbuster bomb with a mallet. Beneath those categories, the sign reads "What men think of top sergeant" which is shown with a large white-on-black "CENSORED!!" as the language implied it would not pass scrutiny by the Hays Office.
Special Feature: Warner Bros. Classic Cartoon: Little Red Riding Rabbit [1943] [1080p] [1.37:1] [7:07] Cartoon directed by Friz Freleng, and starring Bugs Bunny in the Merrie Melodies series. It’s a sendup of the popular fairy tale "Little Red Riding Hood" and is the first time in which Mel Blanc receives a voice credit. Little Red Riding Hood is depicted as a typical 1940s teen-aged girl, a "bobby soxer" with an extremely loud and grating voice (inspired by screen and radio comedienne Cass Daley, provided by Bea Benaderet). After she sings the first verse of “Five o'Clock Whistle” in the opening to establish this fact, Bugs Bunny pops out of her basket to ask where she’s going. She replies that she’s going to "bring a little bunny rabbit to my grandma’s.” Eventually, Bugs Bunny points out to the wolf places where he might be hiding. And he's actually in one of them. Bugs hides under the wolf's nightgown and treats his bottom to some hot coals. The wolf goes up in the air, landing with his legs on a chair and table across a gap with hot coals below. Bugs keeps piling tons of stuff in the wolf's arms and forcing him down onto the coals when Red comes back hollering, and Bugs Bunny switches out Red and the wolf.
Special Feature: Warner Bros. Patriotic Short: Food and Magic [1943] [480i] [1.37:1] [9:22] A sideshow carnival barker [Jack Carson] delivers a patriotic instructional message to civilians watching the show and uses magic and visual aids to alert the public that proper food management is both a resource and a weapon that could be to America's advantage if conserved properly in winning the then current World War II. Through concrete examples, analogies, and sleight of hand he demonstrates the importance of rationing and conservation of food resources for the War effort.
Special Feature: Warner Bros. Musical Short: Three Cheers For The Girls [1943] [480i] [1.37:1] [16:24] This Musical short film showcases six production numbers from various Warner Bros. musicals. This musical short film salutes the chorus girl, who is seen in the background of many musical numbers, adored by those who see her but is rarely given any recognition. A bevy of singing chorus girls introduce six musical numbers from Warner Bros. feature length motion pictures which highlight the all-female chorus. They are “All’s Fair in Love and War” from Gold Diggers of 1937, “I’ll Sing You a Thousand Love Songs” from Cain and Mabel, “The Words Are in My Heart” from Gold Diggers of 1935, “Spin a Little Web of Dreams” from Fashions of 1934, “Aloha Oe” from Flirtation Walk, and “The Song of the Marines” from The Singing Marine.
Special Feature: Warner Bros. Musical Short: The United States Army Band [1942] [480i] [1.37:1] [8:40] The United States Air Force Band and Chorus perform on the National Mall in Washington. The United States Army Air Force Band, Navy, Marines, perform patriotic songs in front of iconic landmark buildings like the Capitol and the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials. As the songs are performed, the audience sees shots of planes in flight; landmarks in Washington, DC; paratroopers descending to earth; and other scenes. Burgess Meredith was edited from 'The Rear Gunner' (archive footage) (uncredited).
Special Feature: Warner Bros. Vintage Newsreel: Hollywood Canteen First Birthday [Silent] [1943] [480i] [1.37:1] [2:59] This vintage newsreel is sadly shown without any sound and I presume that it originally had some form of narration, which must of been lost.
Theatrical Trailer [1943] [480i] [1.37:1] [2:12] This is the Original Theatrical Trailer for the film ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS.’
Special Feature: Audio-only Bonus: The Lady Esther Screen Guild Radio Broadcast [27/09/1943] [1080p] [1.78:1] [29:32] This is a short preview of the film ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS,’ that features musical highlight numbers with the stars from the film, that includes Eddie Cantor, Dinah Shore and Dennis Morgan who appear in the film. The radio broadcast can be heard in its entirety.
Bonus Song Selection: Here you can access all the songs from the film and you can also select individual song titles, but if you click on any of the song titles, the film will just carry on until the very end of the film.
Finally, ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS’ is a very entertaining film and a total delight, and it is also a fascinating time capsule of how Hollywood films helped to boost morale during World War II and if you are expecting a film with a firm plot and a moral, this may not be for you. But if you want to laugh and smile, ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS’ will do the trick. Every single musical performance will bring a smile to your face, especially those performed by Errol Flynn, Bette Davis, Ann Sheridan and John Garfield. The Warner Archive Collection has turned out a remarkable string of high-quality Blu-ray releases, and ‘THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS’ is a worthy edition to your Blu-ray catalogue. The film boasts a remarkable cast of stars, elaborate musical numbers, and some tongue-in-cheek humour, which will keep the audience smiling until the final scene. Highly Recommended!
