Week-End in Havana (1941)

A woman is on a cruise to the Caribbean and her ship gets stuck in a coral reef in Florida. The travel company wants her to sign a waiver saying she will not sue them. She refuses. The company offers her a trip by air to Havana in exchange for her signature. She says she will sign only if she enjoys the trip. A company agent follows her with the mission of seeing that she has a good time. In Havana she gets involved with a Latin lover.

Banal comedy with somewhat extravagant musical numbers. On account of the decent production values, and the fast succession of events, the film is relatively painless to watch. But there is very little to see here, except for two or three brief moments of mild hilarity.

Rating: 31
