Be warned: this is the kind of movie in which a single magazine cover turns an unknown dancer into the toast of her own Broadway show, virtually overnight. The corn runs high, but so do the spirits; plus, Eve Arden is around to toss in her trademark one-liners. Gene Kelly, as Hayworth's sulky choreographer and part-time boyfriend, stops the movie cold with his brilliant dance alongside his own reflection. The Jerome Kern-Ira Gershwin songs are middling, except for the lovely 'Long Ago and Far Away.' One number presents a parade of magazine cover girls come to life (great snapshot of an era). And check out the movie's hats: a parade of insane creations, perched uncertainly on many beautiful women's heads. --Robert Horton Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Classic Musical Cover Girl is a classic musical with Rita Hayworth and Gene Kelly. Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly were co-choreographers, marking the beginning of their partnership. Beautifully photographed in glorious Technicolor, Cover Girl is a pure joy. Rating: - A Great Film Often Forgot Among By Younger Generations Cover Girl is a fun and light-hearted film featuring Gene Kelly, Rita Hayworth, and the music of Jerome Kern. Jerome Kern teamed up with Ira Gershwin to produce great songs like the famous "Long Ago and Far Away." 1944 Academy Award for Best Musical Scoring. Excellent and entertaining dancing and music with a classic-era storyline. A must-have DVD for anyone's personal classic collection. Rating: - Cover Girl Probably one of Rita Hayworth's most memorable movies. This movie has it all, and was made to showcase Hayworth's multitude of talent. There is humor, amazing well-choreographed dance sequences, and the singing, ohhh the singing! It is hard to choose what is better. Gene Kelley gave a wonder performance as always, but Rita Hayworth shines. I never realized what a phenomenal dancer she was. It is a shame that she never received the recognition she deserved. Rating: - Simple plot but amazing execution Easily the best of Rita Hayworth's musicals, Cover Girl seems to have become a forgotten film, but its one of the best non-MGM wartime musicals, with gorgeous Technicolor, some good songs courtesy of George and Ira Gershwin and at least one standout number, the Shadow Dance, which still amazes with its technique as Gene Kelly dances with his own reflection. It's all the more impressive when you consider that the camera is in almost constant motion at a time when motion control camera systems didn't ...

This love story is a comedy drama about a chorus girl named Rusty "Chicken" Parker (Rita Hayworth) working at McGuire's club owned by her boyfriend Danny McGuire (Gene Kelly). Columbia Studios made this a showcase for Rita Hayworth, but gave Gene Kelly control over the film, especially about dance routines, singing and choreography. The film has lavish costumes, great dance routines, and excellent music. ...
