Given free rein in choreographing Anchors Aweigh, Gene Kelly was eager to do the unexpected. But what' How about doing a dance with a cartoon' collaborator and friend Stanley Donen asked. How about it indeed. Kelly's live-action fancy footwork with animated Jerry (of Tom and Jerry'') remains a milestone of movie fantasy. Frank Sinatra and Kathryn Grayson also head line this wartime tale of two sailors on leave in Hollywood. Sinatra's I Fall in Love Too Easily, the exuberant Kelly/Sinatra We Hate to Leave and other highlights helped Anchors Aweigh weigh in with an Academy Award'*' for Best Scoring of a Musical Picture, plus four more Oscar'*' nominations*, including Best Picture and Actor (Kelly).
