About The Toast of New Orleans
Snooty opera singer meets a rough-and-tumble fisherman in the Louisiana bayous, but this fisherman can sing! Her agent lures him away to New Orleans to teach him to sing opera but comes to regret this rash decision when the singers fall in love.
Directed by Norman Taurog, The Toast of New Orleans leans on a strong ensemble — Kathryn Grayson, Mario Lanza, David Niven — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1950.
