I'm one of their contributing editors, and Karolyn was very kind in sharing her memories of working with Bing in Paramount's BlueSkies for the benefit of our readers.
BlueSkies was filmed between August and November 1945 (making Karolyn 5 years old at the time).
When BlueSkies premiered at Radio City Music Hall on Oct. 16, 1946, (the same day Bing's new radio series for Philco premiered), all the proceeds from the film premiere were donated to the Sister Kenny Foundation.
BlueSkies, on the other hand, is complex but finally runs away from its own complexity.
As long as her husband is stationed in Hawaii, she's in paradise with plenty of sun, sand, blue water, and bluesky to set off her beauty and plenty of guest NATO officers to admire it.
But when Hank's stubborness gets him transferred to the mainland, Carly has to exchange blueskies for Operation BlueSkies, a nuclear project that keeps her mate shuttling between Alabama and the West Coast while wife and daughter stagnate in the land of George Wallace.
