"One of the Best and Last of Show Business Biographies" -- David Shipman, The Stroy of Cinema He penned the lines. Walter Donaldson, George Gershwin and others provided the music. Yet there was a more vital partner in lyricist Gus Kahn's Life: Grace LeBoy Kahn, who put the love into his love songs. Doris Day and Danny Thomas are the Kahns in this affectionate musical, one of 1952's top box-office hits. The Title song, "It Had to be You," "Makin' Whoopie" and "Love Me" lead a 23-song cavalcade (in all he wrote some 800 tunes) that propels this story of Kahn's life from the day he walked into a music publishing house to public triumphs, private failures, career decline and comeback. Directed by Michael Curtiz, this is a winning tribute to the talented guy who put into song what lovers feel in their hearts.
