Another of Betty Grable’s puttin’ on a show musicals, Richard Sale’s Meet Me After the Show finds the star still peppy and ready to sing and dance despite the paper-thin plots she was continually pushed into. While this one didn’t bring forth any song standards, most of the numbers are enjoyable and offer some clever variations on Grable’s usual song and dance repertoire. A new leading man in Macdonald Carey was also a good idea even if the role he’s saddled with makes the film’s entire plot fall completely apart. But movie musicals of this era didn’t go in for complex narratives, so the song and dance has to do the heavy lifting here, and it offers a reasonably good time.
