MOVIE POSTER

Just re-watched one of my fav GREAT Relationship couples in the 1954 movie The Glenn Miller Story (starring Jimmy Stewart and June Allyson). If you haven't seen it I highly recommend it. You can rent it here on YouTube.

It's the true story of the innovative and most popular musician of the late 30s and early 40s (big band/swing). Several of his most popular songs were love songs to his wife and sweetheart Helen, with a very meaningful story behind each song: String of Pearls, Pennsylvania 6500, and Little Brown Jug.
