1 There's ingenuity in the writing, the direction is snappy, and the principals do their stuff with gusto. There's laughs and entertainment in the proceedings. — BOXOFFICE Combination of music and fun makes this grand entertain¬ ment. It will bring joy to every member of the family. Pure, unadulterated fun heavily trimmed with music — the kind that carries popular appeal. —FILM DAILY Judy Canova's inimitable style of acting dominates the pic¬ ture and her fans will welcome her in this production as they have in her past successes. There are plenty of good laughs in the picture. With Judy alone, "Sleepytime Gal" would be boxoflice. But it is given added drawing power ... a bangup cast. —SHOWMEN'S TRADE REVIEW The action is very fast, and most of the gags provoke laugh¬ ter . . . the music is lively . . . the picture has been produced lavishly. —HARRISON'S REPORTS The versatile and entertaining Judy Canova is responsible for considerable of the zest in this comedy effort, which has sev¬ eral saleable elements worthy of special exhibitor attention. —MOTION PICTURE DAILY Judy Canova offers a variety of comedy routines and a num¬ ber of musical numbers, the last one something of a sizzler. —MOTION PICTURE HERALD stiffs GREATS COMEDIENNE TOM BROWN • BILLY GILBERT * RUTH TERRY THURSTON HALL * ELISHA COOK, JR. • JERRY LESTER • MILDRED COLES HAROLD HUBER and SKINNAY ENNIS AND HIS BAND ALBERT S.
