"Look For The Silver Lining" (1949) is a highly fictionalized (and sanitized) biopic of 1920s Broadway star Marilyn Miller (portrayed by June Haver). It was the first of two films in which Ms. Haver was loaned to Warner Brothers from Fox, and she considered this her best film and her best role. It's an enjoyable and entertaining musical, although perhaps not as well-remembered as others. Co-starring Ray Bolger, Gordon MacRae, Charles Ruggles, Rosemary DeCamp, and S.Z. Zakall. The version of the title tune is here performed by Fran Warren, recorded in 1947.
