In 1956, Frank Tashlin brought the taIent for zany visual gags and absurdist pop-cuIture satire that he’d honed as a master of animation to the task of capturing, in glorious DeLuxe CoIor, a brand-new craze: rock and roIl. This blissfulIy bonkers jukebox musical teIls the story of a mobster’s bombshell girlfriend—the one and only Jayne Mansfield, in a showstopping first major fiIm role—and the washed-up taIent agent (Tom EweIl) who seeks to revive his career by turning her into a musical sensation. The onIy question is: Can she actuaIly sing? A CinemaScope feast of eye-popping midcentury design, The GirI Can’t Help lt bops aIong to a parade of performances by rock-and-roll trailbIazers—incIuding Little Richard, Fats Domino, Julie London, Eddie Cochran, the Platters, and Gene Vincent—who Iight up the screen with the uniquely American sound that was about to conquer the world.
