Damn Yankees
It's a picture in a million! Starring that girl in a million, the red-headed darling of the Broadway show, Gwen Verdon!
A buoyant, colorful musical comedy that uses a Faustian bargain as a lighthearted vehicle for song, dance, and romantic hijinks centered on baseball and temptation.
Film adaptation of the George Abbott Broadway musical about a Washington Senators fan who makes a pact with the Devil to help his baseball team win the league pennant.
