my research skills have gone awry...

There was a very silly film, a quite a while back (but I am pretty sure it was after the days of color film) about a pair of singing sisters. They were played by two of the blonde bombshells of the time. The only thing I remember clearly at all, was a number where they were pretending to be Hungarian (I think) and sang about waltzing and drinking coffee in Vienna, because what else can you do in Vienna?

What was that film?!?!?!

It sounds like one of the 20th Century Fox musicals of the 40s...Maybe The Dolly Girls?

Why were they pretending to be Hungarian while in Austria?

and besides waltzing and coffee, you have pastries!

Yay! I'm pleased that all the stuff in my head is of some use to someone.

I don't know -- I always thought the sex was pretty good in Vienna. I know sex doesn't run the world, but when you're in your early 20's it sure seemed like it did (but that was a long time ago).

Stella I asked my wife who is a big fan of old movies and she had no idea but, she Googled and came up with "The Dolly Sisters" w/June Haver and Betty Grable. IMDB has a very good description. So Dianthus was damn close.
