Dangerous When Wet

MGM's splashy Technicolor musical!

The Higgins family, dairy farmers devoted to health, start each day with an invigorating swim. When traveling health-tonic salesman Windy Weebe arrives in town, he proposes they swim the English Channel. With sponsorship from Liquapep and Windy as coach, the family travels to Europe, where daughter Katie is deemed the only one strong enough to enter the contest. As she faces the difficult and risky task ahead, she is pursued by dashing Frenchman André Lanet. This comedic musical is well remembered for the scene in which Katie dreams she is swimming with cartoon characters Tom & Jerry.
