Short description

Blue Skies is a musical romance set against the backdrop of a changing New York, following a love triangle that unfolds over many years.

Their shifting relationships play out between stage numbers and performances.

The film was directed by Stuart Heisler, released in 1946 as the second of the five titles listed for him, following The Glass Key and preceding Tokyo Joe. Arthur Sheekman wrote the screenplay. Bing Crosby plays Johnny, Fred Astaire plays Jed, and Joan Caulfield plays Mary, with Billy De Wolfe, Olga San Juan and Mikhail Rasumny in supporting roles. Produced by Paramount on a budget of three million dollars, it runs 104 minutes.
