My Blue Heaven is a 1950 American drama musical film directed by Henry Koster and starring Betty Grable and Dan Dailey. New songs by Harold Arlen and Ralph Blane.

Plot

Movie Theatre showing the film.

Kitty Moran (Betty Grable), a radio star, finds out she is pregnant. After she miscarries, Kitty and her husband Jack (Dan Dailey) move their show to television, and become determined to adopt a baby.

Miss Gilbert, an adoption agency official, is sympathetic but warns them the process can be complicated and some officials may consider their show business background unfavorably. Their dog, Mr. Milton, hides under the sofa whenever mention of having to share his affections comes up. When the couple finally get a baby through unofficial means, Kitty fires the overly strict nurse Mrs. Bates and stays home. This lasts five weeks, until Kitty learns her understudy Gloria Adams is getting a little too big for her britches where Kitty's husband is concerned. She quickly returns to work. It all ends in happy confusion, as the couple ends up with two adopted babies and the news that Kitty is pregnant again.

Cast

Background

My Blue Heaven was the third film that Grable and Dailey made together, the first two being Mother Wore Tights in 1947 and When My Baby Smiles at Me in 1948. They later co-starred in a fourth, Call Me Mister (1951).

My Blue Heaven marked the film debut of musical star Mitzi Gaynor.

Grable was reluctant to make the film. She only agreed to do it if Lamar Trotti rewrote the script and Henry Koster replaced Claude Binyon as director.[4]

Radio adaptation

My Blue Heaven was presented on Lux Radio Theatre on 25 February 1952. The one-hour adaptation featured Grable and Dailey in their roles from the film.[5]

Notes

Jane Wyatt and Elinor Donahue later starred in the TV show Father Knows Best (1954–1960).
