Doris Day and Stephen Boyd fall out over a performing elephant in this warm, vibrant and nostalgic MGM musical about a failing circus fighting to survive a hostile takeover from venal competition. With gorgeous Rodgers and Hart numbers spectacularly staged by Busby Berkeley, virtuoso clowning from Jimmy Durante and Martha Raye, and Day in full voice, it's as sweet and comforting as candyfloss.
