Doll Face is one of two attempts by 20th Century Fox to make a movie star out of crooner Perry Como (the other was If I'm Lucky). Actually, Como is but a cog in the wheel of the main plot, which involves Doll Face (Vivian Blaine), a stripteaser with artistic pretensions.

Doll Face is one of two attempts by 20th Century Fox to make a movie star out of crooner Perry Como (the other was If I'm Lucky). Actually, Como is but a cog in the wheel of the main plot, which involves Doll Face (Vivian Blaine), a stripteaser with artistic pretensions. On the advice of her manager/boyfriend, Mike Hannegan (Dennis O'Keefe), Doll Face undergoes a "refinement" process. The next step for the girl is to write an intellectual autobiography, for which ghostwriter Gerard (Michael Dunne) is engaged. Forget the plot, and concentrate on the production numbers performed with gusto by Blaine, Como, and Carmen Miranda. Doll Face is based on The Naked Genius, a play by Louise Hovick -- better known as striptease artist Gypsy Rose Lee. Hal Erickson, Rovi

This movie was so much fun, and so WONDERFUL! I wish I had known about it sooner. It was written by Louise Hovick, one of my heroes, who was also known to the world as Miss Gypsy Rose Lee. The movie is about Honey Bee Carroll, a burlesque star who wants to be taken seriously and "go legitimate," meaning go on Broadway. It's very clearly based on Gypsy Rose Lee's own experiences. Furthermore, there's a secondary character in the movie played by Carmen Miranda, who is just hilarious. I not only highly recommend this little gem, but I'd like to buy copies of it to give away as presents, that's how much I like it.
