Maybe the romantic elements are pretty corny and very predictable but... I think the the the actors have enough personality to pull it off.

Even among dyed-in-the-wool fans of R&H, this one's largely remembered, if remembered at all, as a dud.

Rodgers and hammerstein's songs are great, but this musical version of the 1933 Will Rogers' vehicle is poorly directed by Walter Wang and poorly acted by Jeanne Crain, whose voice is dubbed by Louanne Hogan.
