The Connecticut (or Hartford or Wicked) Wits were a group of late-18th-century poets who first attempted to write a distinctly American literature. THEY FAILED.

What should all this add up to?
A (mostly) Cole Porter score
Lucille Ball
Gene Kelly
Red Skelton
Zero Mostel
The Tommy Dorsey Orchestra
and
a young Ava Gardner in a walk-on, uncredited role
Well, whatever it adds up to should be a helluva lot better movie than 1943's Du Barry Was a Lady.
