How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A buoyant 1940s musical about teenage ambition and collective effort, where the charm lies in watching young performers enthusiastically stage elaborate musical numbers while scheming to fund their way to a big contest.
