Need a vacation? Then head south of the border for a Holiday in Mexico and say ?hola! to love, comedy, brilliant color and glorious music. This tale of an ambassador's teenage daughter smitten with a world-renowned and much older musician features couples young (Jane Powell and Roddy McDowall) and not so young (Walter Pidgeon and Ilona Massey), music hot (Xavier Cugat and his orchestra) and haute (Jose Iturbi) and a cascade of romantic complications as everyone is confused by exactly who loves whom. A box-office hit, Holiday in Mexico is an exuberant vehicle for 16-year-old Powell's sparkling soprano and marks another musical success for director George Sidney (Anchors Aweigh, Show Boat).
