The Phil Silvers Show 4.X

The Phil Silver Pontiac Special: Keep In Step (1959)

21 minutes

This TV special starred the cast of The Phil Silver Show. It plays a bit like an episode of the show but it is incomplete. Bilko gets Lanny Langford, a singer, who has just been drafter into the army transferred to Camp Fremont. Bilko's plan is to have Langford be the star of a stage musical that he will produce. The 21 minute clip of the special ends after Langford has been transferred to Camp Fremont but before he arrives.

The quality of the picture is not up to the standards of the rest of the episodes of the show. According to IMDb this episode also starred Diana Dors but she did not appear in the clip that was on the DVD. From the looks of it there are three separate listings for this special on IMDb. My guess is that's an error.

Anna Lucasta (Eartha Kitt) returns home from San Diego and tries to put the pieces of her life back together after getting by as a prostitute. Randolph Slocum (Henry Scott) takes an interest in her as almost everyone in her family hoped he would but Joe (Anna's overbearing, alcoholic father) can't stand to let things be. On her wedding day he sabotages her life. Unable to deal with her father's behavior she runs off with Danny a cabbie she first met while she was living in San Diego.

Thoughts

There's more to this movie than my description entails. It is unclear how much time has passed since Joe ejected Anna from the Lucasta family home.
