U.S. title: Forbidden Music
A country is immersed in debt due to the fact that its population spends its time playing music rather than working. The ruling monarch decrees a ban of all musical activities. A famous tenor who was born there but lives abroad is visiting the country. He teams up with an American journalist in a plot to hold a secret musical performance.
Musical comedy. The plot is silly and not supposed to make much sense. The comic star is funny. The musical bits are not particularly memorable, but the tenor star is an excellent singer. The film is visually agreeable and provides some lightweight forgettable entertainment. The copy I watched appears to be a shortened (1h03') version, if the IMDB reports the correct length.
Rating: 41
