All the movies are 'Musicals' . . . but are you looking for an answer with more depth than that? (I've seen 4 of the 5 movies you listen; only 'STAR!" have I not seen).

The First Film That Comes to Mind...
Mr. Gorman replied to Metropolisforever's topic in Games and Trivia
THE BAND WAGON (1953) Remember the scene where Fred Astaire goes to the "after party" . . . and he's the only one there -BUT- there is a veritable FEAST of food to be eaten! I hope the cast and crew had a good meal after Minnelli yelled "Cut!" Next: A movie where a normally/dependably good actor "phones it in". -

β£ A THOUGHT β£ Perhaps TCM should consider a different type of 'content warning' -- the 'ANNOYING MOVIE WARNING'! If ever I see these movies on the schedule they are an automatic 'channel flip': OBLIGING YOUNG LADY (1942), THE SHOW-OFF (1946) and CAT'S PAW (1934). I feel that unsuspecting viewers need to be warned about these irritating movies. π IT'S A GIFT (1934) is also very irritating; no one I know would sit through "It's A Gift". I've seen it thrice and kind of enjoy it, but it IS a very annoying movie as W.C. seemingly lets everyone walk all over him and does nothing about it. I can't think of anyone I know who'd watch IT'S A GIFT all the way through - and it's not a long movie at 68 minutes. DANGER WILL ROBINSON! IT'S THE 'ANNOYING MOVIE WARNING'! VIEW AT OWN RISK! β’οΈ

@Dargo; Maybe some suave Louis Jourdan, too. Why not? π

I must say I've never heard of 'Amber E. George' or 'Charles M. Blow' -- but I wonder if I could join the New York Times staff and get $paid$ handily if I promise to find a *new* and *exciting* way to trash Speedy Gonzalez? π β If The Times will pay someone to write about Pepe Le Pew then maybe I can pretend to be a 'Highly-Educated Intellectual Type' and write twaddle about Slowpoke Rodriguez! π°π° BRING ON THE DAMN MONEY! (EDIT: I've always thought Pepe Le Pew was an exaggerated parody of Charles Boyer instead of Maurice Chevalier. Heck, Pepe is probably a combination of both Frenchmen).

Speaking of BURL IVES . . . Balladeer Burl recorded -- PROBABLY IN ONE TAKE WHILE DRUNK -- a hilariously awful version of the Bob Dylan song I'LL BE YOUR BABY TONIGHT on a 1966 LP. I heard this version from Burl because I ran across the 45' rpm single release from Columbia some 20 years ago and took it home to play it. All I can say is WOW! ( The "B"-side is equally rancid, btw. Some nothing song called "Maria, If I Could" that you'll never hear again anywhere, btw). β But Burl's version of I'LL BE YOUR BABY TONIGHT is so remarkably terrible and off-key it's AMAZING! π Anyone reading this do yourself a 'favor' and head for YouTube and have a listen. It's only 2mins 11secs. π΅

Interesting points to note. The central plot of the movie is built on impulse; Joey says she and John Prentice met 11 days ago in Hawaii so that's a rather speedy courtship. Anyway, I think ONE POTATO, TWO POTATO is quite a better movie in regards to interracial marriage.

I've not actually seen that episode of THE TWILIGHT ZONE, Dargo. I've only seen the re-created segment in the 1982 movie; but not the original as of yet.
