Wholesale Strike Up the Band

Teens Jimmy Connors (Mickey Rooney) and Mary Holden (Judy Garland) lift their school’s spirits when they update it’s stodgy orchestra into a swing band, but can they raise enough cash for the kids to hit the road and compete in front of Paul Whiteman (as himself)? Second scintillating Garland-Rooney musical co-stars June Preisser, William Tracy, Larry Nunn; Busby Berkeley directs. Score includes “Our Love Affair,” “Nobody,” “Nell of New Rochelle,” and the title tune. 120 min. Standard; Soundtracks: English DTS HD mono Master Audio, Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English (SDH).
