| User ReviewSteve SOne of Esther Williams better and most fun musical MGM spectacles. This time he heads to the snow capped mountain of Sun Valley. The lack of overdone swimming scenes actually benefits the film. |
| User ReviewAshley HDuchess of Idaho is an okay film. It is about Ellen Hallet is in love with her playboy boss, Douglas Morrison. Esther Williams and Van Johnson give decent performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. Robert Z. Leonard did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the music and romance. |
