Pot 'O' Gold: While 'Born To Dance' is the movie musical most associated with James Stewart, the largely forgotten Pot o' Gold is the one in which he is most involved with music. The plot has Stewart as Jimmy Haskell, a music-loving, harmonica-playing man who comes across a poor but excellent band (led by Horace Heidt) that rehearses on a boarding-house roof.
Jimmy becomes interested in the people who own the boarding-house, Ma McCorkle (Mary Gordon) and her lovely daughter, Molly (Paulette Goddard). Jimmy and Molly combine forces to promote the career of Horace and the lads, but that task is made difficult by Jimmy's wealthy Uncle Charley.
This is a rare opportunity to hear Stewart sing with surprisingly pleasant results. Songs from a group of writers include: Do You Believe In Fairy tales? (Mack David, Vee Lawnhurst), When Johnny Toots His Horn (Hy Heath, Fred Rose), Slap happy Band, Hi Cy, What's Cookin'? Pete The Piper, Broadway Cabellero (Henry Sullivan, Lou Forbes). The movie was produced by James Roosevelt, son of FDR.
