Come On George! (1939) Because George Formby is a pure fool, he is the only one who can get close to a dangerous race horse, so must ride it to victory in the big race and on the way perform a few tunes and get launched through the roof of a circus tent by a troupe of acrobats. Certain misunderstandings cause him to be chased around. At one point a song is brought in by the simple expedient of having a character say, "How about a song while we are waiting?" That covers it, really. Nothing going on in the story so throw in a song. Horse race movies usually turn out pretty much the same way. Pretty flat and literally forgettable - this morning I couldn't remember if I had watched it all. 4/10
