	The Guide to Musical Theatre - Pal Joey
		Joey then calls Vera and insults her for costing him his job; this is done in a state of some panic, but it evidently works.
		Joey hears this from the tearful girl, but admits 'What do I care for a dame?' The act ends with a ballet, which is Joey's fantasy of what the night-club of his own that Vera has promised him will be like.
		Her love for Joey is less for his future as a night-club star than for his present as a lover and as such is skin-deep only: she drops him once her affair looks like being made public.

	Pal Joey
		Ethel Barrymore Theatre on December 25, 1940, with Gene Kelly as "Joey", Vivienne Segal as "Vera" and Leila Ernst as "Linda".
		But when Pal Joey was revived on Broadway in 1952 it found both critics and audiences more ready to accept an unorthodox musical that avoided the hackneyed and was willing to treat its audiences as adults.
		Pal Joey then achieved the longest run of any revival of a musical in the history of the Broadway theatre at that time.

	THE CINEMA LASER DVD REVIEW-- PAL JOEY
		PAL JOEY ($28) is typical of a 1950's Hollywood musical adapted from the Broadway stage.
		PAL JOEY is an amusing little musical that features songs by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart, including the standards Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered, The Lady is a Tramp, My Funny Valentine and There's A Small Hotel (all beautifully arranged by Nelson Riddle).
		PAL JOEY was originally released in glorious Technicolor, however the element used for the transfer sometimes appears too muted to be an IB print.

		Joey has quite an eye for the ladies, and in no time he is working his way through the club’s chorus girls.
		She is attracted to Joey despite his low-class behaviour and despite the fact that she is married.
		But she is older than Joey, wiser in some ways, and she does not trust his roving eye and his free-and-easy ways.

	Pal Joey (1957) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Granted, as is typical in these kinds of films, it's never terribly apparent why Joey favors Linda instead of all the other women who fawn over him - though I suspect the fact she doesn't fawn may play a part - but Novak seems so appealing that we don't question this decision.
		Pal Joey isn't a classic film and doesn't offer much that can't be found in the plots of about a jillion other films.
		Pal Joey appears both in its original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1 and in a fullscreen version on this double-sided, single-layered DVD; the letterboxed edition has been enhanced for 16X9 televisions.

	TechnoFILE Reviews "Pal Joey" on DVD (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Columbia Classics' "Pal Joey" is a relatively minor musical in the Hollywood galaxy, but it's an entertaining film with good performances from some heavyweight stars and some nice music from Richard Rogers and Lorenz Hart.
		Joey's other major conquest in "Pal Joey" is the wealthy socialite widow ex-stripper (Rita Hayworth), who he convinces to bankroll his dream of opening his own night club.
		While "Pal Joey" isn't up to the "BIG" standard of such classic Hollywood musicals as Oklahoma!, The Music Man, Oliver, or My Fair Lady, it's still a pleasant movie experience fans of this genre and these stars will undoubtely enjoy.

	VH1.com : Movies : Movie : Pal Joey : Plot
		The relationship between Joey and his older benefactress Vera Simpson (Rita Hayworth, who was actually a few years younger than Sinatra) is one of implication rather than overt statement.
		And Joey's true love, chorine Linda English (Kim Novak), is as pure as the driven snow, who vehemently expresses distaste at having to perform a striptease.
		Pal Joey is nice to look at and consummately performed, but don't expect the bite of the original play, or the John O'Hara short stories which preceded them.

		Together with George Abbott, Pal Joey's original producer and director, O'Hara reworked his short stories and came up with a plot that not only touches, but rather immerses itself in flmail, greed, power and sex.
		The cast was exemplary and included then-newcomer Gene Kelly as Joey and stage veteran Vivienne Segal as Vera, supported by a cast that included Van Johnson and June Havoc.
		He wrote: "In 1940 Pal Joey was regarded by its satellites as the musical that broke the old formula and brought the musical stage to maturity.

		The central story revolved around Joey and his affair with a worldly-wise society dame, Vera Simpson; Vivienne Segal was cast as Vera (the character, created for the musical, shared Segal's initials) and the title role went to a talented young actor named Gene Kelly.
		PAL JOEY had a Broadway run of less than a year, followed by a three-month, five-city tour.
		The PAL JOEY album proved so popular that a Broadway revival was inevitable, produced by none other than composer Jule Styne, who brought PAL JOEY back to Broadway on January 3, 1952.

		Pal Joey is presented in both widescreen (1.85:1) and full-screen versions on this DVD release.
		The trailer for Pal Joey is amusing, featuring Sinatra on the movie set, describing the film and defining some of the various "hip" terms used in the musical.
		Pal Joey is the kind of gleeful, larger-than-life movie where the woman slaps the man before he kisses her, then wakes up the next morning with her cheeks all rosy, singing while she rolls around on her bed.

		PAL JOEY's original source was John O'Hara's series of fictional "letters," published in the New Yorker, from a mythical dancer who signed all the missives, "Your Pal Joey." O'Hara was approached by producer George Abbott, who talked him into adapting the stories into a book for a musical.
		When Joey and the band (led by real-life bandleader Bobby Sherwood) are booked for a private soiree at the posh home of wealthy widow Vera (Rita Hayworth), Joey recognizes her as a former stripper.
		Noting, however, that there is more between Joey and Linda than a professional relationship, she holds back the money and tells Joey he cannot open the club if Linda remains with the establishment.

	Christine Andreas in Pal Joey
		Pal Joey is a bold creation that rests on a dual paradox.
		Dawson deftly suggests that Joey is one of those guys whose seductions are for the thrill of the chase rather than the enjoyment of the prize.
		At the end of Pal Joey, Andreas reprises "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered" to indicate her emergence from Joey's dubious influence.

		Joey Evans is a heel: sleazy and manipulative, he’s also a pathological liar and (except for a savvy sense of self-interest) dumb as a post.
		Pal Joey, based on stories written by John O'Hara for The New Yorker, tells the tale of a shlemiel with an unrealistic dream (to be a famous nightclub performer) that he pursues largely through the seduction of needy women.
		He's not the flashy dancer we expect in the role (the first Joey was Gene Kelly), but he's resourceful and sings well.

		'Pal Joey' is 1 to 1:85, while the theatrical release was 1 to 2:35, which is noticable in some scenes, for instance a board with 'International settlements' on is shown as 'nternational settlement' (sic).

	DVD : Pal Joey
		First born in the pages of The New Yorker, then translated into a hit Rodgers and Hart Broadway musical, the title character of Pal Joey had undergone quite a transformation by the time he hit the movies in 1957.
		He was a singer, rather than a dancer, but more importantly he'd had his rough edges sweetly softened; the callous heel dreamed up by novelist John O'Hara was more of a naughty scamp in the film version.
		However, Pal Joey remains delightfully watchable for two very good reasons: a terrific song score and a surplus of glittering star power.
