Just a little montage of some of Lana Turner's early film work - MGM was clearly grooming her to be a musical star - she could dance very well and of course, looked lovely and had a very romantic quality about her. At this point in her career, she was a redhead (her natural hair color) and was often referred to as Clara Bow's successor. She had a flair for comedy as well as for drama. These four films showcased her natural talent; the background music provided by Bunny Berigan and his Orchestra.
Clips from:
"Calling Dr. Kildare" (1939) with Lew Ayres
"These Glamour Girls " (1939) with Lew Ayres
"Dancing Co-Ed" (1939) with Richard Carlson and Anne Rutherford
"Two Girls On Broadway" (1940) with George Murphy, Joan Blondell and Kent Taylor
