[Starring] Judy Garland with John Hodiak, Ray Bolger, Angela Lansbury

This rip-roaring period musical, set in New Mexico in the 1890s, is the story of a group of well-bred East Coast waitresses who cause confusion in a rough and ready border town where they have been sent to staff a new restaurant. Amongst the songs is Judy's famous number, 'On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe.'

Dramatised by Gerald Savory
with Daphne Slater as Margery Bishop, Graham Crowden as Bill Marsh, Arthur Pentelow as Charlie Bishop, Ann Castle as Janet Lascelles, Mark Edwards as Gerry Morton

Margery Bishop, a married woman, falls in love with Gerry Morton, a man much younger than herself. She feels she must confess this to her husband - but Virtue is not always its own reward - or is it?

"This is the master at his most sardonic. Impeccably acted as ever, especially by Daphne Slater, who made the difficult main role entirely convincing." (Daily Telegraph)

Duchin, who launched such hits as 'Stormy weather,' had the sort of tragic private life that has dogged many great entertainers but this imaginative film, with its authentic atmosphere of the time, brings a fresh touch to a familiar theme
