Anchors Aweigh

Colourful musical about two sailors who find love while on shore leave in Hollywood. One falls for a young actress who dreams of stardom, the other meets a girl from his home town, New York.

Gene Kelly is paired with Jerry the mouse in a charming scene combining animation and live action.
