The film is a behind-the-scenes musical film that stands out in the MGM musical tradition with its expensive movie set and cinematography. The revue film is similar to the musical, the operetta and the dance film. The term refers to German and Austrian dance and music films. Features of the revue film are the light entertainment and the recurring dance and musical numbers, mostly contemporary hits. In some cases, the revue film is a filmed music theater.
