“Me and My Girl”
...an old-fashioned musical delight...
...A razzle-dazzle musical filled with energetic dancing lilting songs...
...It's colorful, silly, upbeat, with catchy songs and dances (including the '30s answer to the macarena, "The Lambeth Walk") and plenty of signature British wit...
The story of a 1930's cockney lad who inherits a fortune and must prove himself to be "An English Gentlemen" before he can get his hands on the money.
To complicate matters the new aunt Duchess in his life feels his fiancé is unsuitable for his new title as well.
