Doris Day and Danny Thomas star in “I’ll See You in My Dreams,” the biography of lyricist Gus Kahn, composer of such songs as “Making Whoopee” and “I’ll See You in My Dreams.” Director Michael Curtiz (“Noah’s Ark” 1928) put together a winsome musical comedy from a decent script by Jack Rose and Melville Shavelson.
The supporting cast includes Frank Lovejoy, Patrice Wymore, James Gleason, Mary Wickes, Jim Backus, and William Forrest as Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. The watchable “I’ll See You in My Dreams” was the second highest grossing film of 1951 for Warner Bros. Pictures. Michael Curtiz and Danny Thomas teamed up the next year for “The Jazz Singer.”
