My Blue Heaven is a 1950 Technicolor musical drama film directed by Henry Koster, and starring Betty Grable and Dan Dailey.

Plot

Kitty Moran, a radio star, finds out she is pregnant. After she miscarries, Kitty and her husband Jack move their show to television, and become determined to adopt a baby.

Cast

My Blue Heaven was the third film that Grable and Dailey made together, the first two being Mother Wore Tights in 1947 and When My Baby Smiles at Me in 1948. They later co-starred in a fourth, Call Me Mister.
