Boy! What A Girl!

Two silky-smooth producers line up a potential backer (who’ll put up half the cash) for a musical review. The catch is that they must find someone else to put up the other half. Enter cigar-smoking cross-dresser “Bumpsie”, who poses as a wealthy society matron to fool the angel! Features vintage jam sessions with swing drummer Gene Krupa, Big Sid Catlett and his band, The Slam Stewart Trio and The International Jitterbugs.

My take

A breezy 1946 musical comedy that bounces between scheming producers, cross-dressing con artists, and some of the era's smoothest jazz performances. Perfect for when you want laughs, style, and live swing without taking anything too seriously.
