He points out that Kelly&#8217;s character &#8220;is extremely likable&#8221; (note how sweet he is to his &#8220;ugly blind date&#8221; [Alice Pearce]), and notes how nice it is &#8220;to see how well the three female characters get along&#8221;, despite having just met each other hours earlier. Of the female leads, Garrett is especially memorable &#8212; and &#8220;really appealing&#8221; &#8212; in a hilariously aggressive turn as a &#8220;spunky cabbie&#8221; who immediately knows what she wants from Sinatra&#8217;s &#8220;initially shy&#8221; character. As for Vera-Allen, while Peary argues that she &#8220;makes a good dancing partner for Kelly because she also has an athletic style&#8221;, he complains that she lacks the &#8220;&#8216;star power&#8217; of some of his other partners&#8221;; I agree that she&#8217;s well-cast but not all that charismatic in the role. <\/p>\n<p>Peary complains that the wonderful &#8220;Bernstein-Edens score could use a couple of more standards to go with &#8216;New York, New York'&#8221;, but I heartily disagree; there are enough clever, memorable songs strewn throughout this one (&#8220;Come Up To My Place&#8221;, &#8220;You&#8217;re Awful&#8221;, and &#8220;Count On Me&#8221;, to name just a few) to satisfy most musical lovers, and the accompanying choreography is consistently enjoyable. Meanwhile, the film&#8217;s fabled location shooting &#8212; particularly during the opening sequence &#8212; is deservedly noteworthy; one wishes for even more. Although the storyline is incredibly simple and straightforward &#8212; the biggest conflict revolves around Miss Turnstiles&#8217; hidden identity, which we know won&#8217;t be a problem for amiable Kelly &#8212; this allows us to simply sit back and enjoy the show, which remains enormously entertaining up until the tiresome final chase sequence (but who&#8217;s quibbling).  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fine location shooting in the charming opening musical sequence, &#8220;New York, New York&#8221;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-New-York-New-York.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-New-York-New-York.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"288\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30228\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-New-York-New-York.png 384w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-New-York-New-York-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-New-York-New-York-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Many enjoyable musical numbers and dance sequences<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Youre-Awful.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Youre-Awful.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"288\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Youre-Awful.png 384w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Youre-Awful-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Youre-Awful-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Prehistoric-Man.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Prehistoric-Man.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"288\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Prehistoric-Man.png 384w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Prehistoric-Man-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Prehistoric-Man-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Miss-Turnstiles.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Miss-Turnstiles.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"288\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Miss-Turnstiles.png 384w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Miss-Turnstiles-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Miss-Turnstiles-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Betty Garrett as Hilde<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Garrett.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Garrett.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"288\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Garrett.png 384w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Garrett-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Garrett-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Alice Pearce as Lucy Schmeeler<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Pearce.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Pearce.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"288\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30229\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Pearce.png 384w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Pearce-128x96.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/On-the-Town-Pearce-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>A memorable score by Leonard Bernstein and Roger Edens (with fun lyrics by screenwriters Adolph Green and Betty Comden)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See?
