I Love Melvin (1953)
Songs! Dances! Joy! as a boy promises to get his girl's picture on a LOOK magazine cover!
Melvin Hoover, a budding photographer for Look magazine, accidentally bumps into a young actress named Judy LeRoy in the park. They start to talk, and Melvin soon offers to do a photo spread of her. His boss, however, has no intention of using the photos. Melvin wants to marry Judy, but her father would rather she marry dull and dependable Harry Black.
