Nancy Goes to Rio (1950)
Delightful, silly musical

Amusing performances from all.
And who cares if they didn't shoot the film on location? In 1950, how many studios went and shot musicals on location? It's not "Mutiny on the Bounty"!
And accusations of racism with the "Latin" comment? Yeah, I lived in Rio, too. And people there know how to enjoy a good Carmen Miranda musical without pulling a conniption fit over the term "Latin."
Laugh out loud story. And Louis Calhern as the casual father and grandfather is outrageous and endearing. The brushing up on his boxing with the butler was great.
