A musical extravaganza embodying all the spectacular showmanship which symbolised the name of Ziegfeld: sumptuous sets and costumes, beautiful girls, and a series of star turns.
MGM followed their successful film biography, The Great Ziegfeld, with this spectacular revue which opens with the great show-man in Heaven, recalling his past successes and planning just one more, even greater show, including Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly in a Gershwin number; bathing-star Esther Williams in a fantastic under-water ballet; and Judy Garland in a burlesque of a Hollywood star.
