the glenn miller story

February 18 movie: The Glenn Miller Story. This was a charming, though not terribly historical, biography of the famous big bandleader Glenn Miller. Lots of great music, and good performances by Jimmy Stewart and the always delightful Harry Morgan. And I have to admit that June Allyson is also good, even though she irritates me. The movie also includes non-speaking musical parts for Miller contemporaries like Louis Armstrong and Gene Krupa.
