"Out of the Blue" some fun '40s fluff, with diverse stars on the rise and demise!

"Out of the Blue" is a silly but fun bit of post-war '40s fluff with an interesting mix of stars: George Brent, Virginia Mayo, Turhan Bey, Ann Dvorak,& Carole Landis. A film farce set mostly in an apartment building in Greenwich Village, w/ everyone yapping about a murderer on the loose. Even worse is when married man George Brent picks up comically deranged designing woman Ann Dvorak! Focus on the stars in this slapstick comedy, my look here:

Designer Don Loper's look for Ann Dvorak is very Carmen Miranda!

...and his intro outfit for Virginia Mayo is very on the nose. Guess what she does for a living in "Out of the Blue?"
