Sweet Rosie O'Grady is a 1943 Technicolor musical film about an American singer who attempts to better herself by marrying an English duke, but is harassed by a reporter. Directed by Irving Cummings, it stars Betty Grable and Robert Young.
Betty Grable was the number one box-office attraction at the time of this film's release. Her other film that year was Coney Island, and both were among the top 10 highest-grossing films of 1943 and two of 20th Century Fox's big money makers that year.
