Now add an immaculate film restoration and resolve rights issues that had long kept this work out of circulation and – at last - this widely unseen spectacle can be enjoyed by today’s fans. Christmas in Connecticut’s Dennis Morgan stars (and lends his melodic tenor to several tunes) as the elusive El Khobar, a mysterious man of action whose work as a cabaret piano player hides his identity as the leader of a bullet-frenzied fight against the Nazis’ construction of a vital North African railroad. Irene Manning (Yankee Doodle Dandy) plays the strawberry-blonde songstress who catches the hero’s eye.
