Twenty Million Sweethearts is a 1934 American Pre-Code musical comedy film directed by Ray Enright and starring Pat O'Brien, Dick Powell, Ginger Rogers, and the Mills Brothers. The film was remade in 1949 as My Dream Is Yours.
Agent Russell Edward "Rush" Blake (Pat O'Brien) is able to promote the singing tenor waiter Buddy Clayton (Dick Powell) as a major radio star, while Buddy's wife Peggy Cornell (Ginger Rogers) loses out. In the end, Peggy does not lose Buddy to his "twenty million sweethearts" – his female fans.
The film features the well-known song "I'll String Along with You" by Harry Warren and Al Dubin.
The film was considered a box-office disappointment for Warner Bros.[2] According to studio records, it earned $821,000 domestically and $392,000 overseas.[1]
