Down Argentine Way
Capsule by Dave Kehr
From the Chicago Reader

Betty Grable as an American heiress, Don Ameche as an Argentine horse breeder, and Carmen Miranda as something from another planet, all shot in delirious 40s Technicolor. The result is a classic example of the 20th Century-Fox approach to musicals: loud, vulgar, ridiculous, and irresistibly entertaining. With Charlotte Greenwood, J. Carrol Naish, and Leonid Kinskey; directed by the implacable Irving Cummings (1940).
