This Time for Keeps is a 1947 American romantic musical film directed by Richard Thorpe and starring Esther Williams, Jimmy Durante, Johnnie Johnston and opera singer Lauritz Melchior. Produced by MGM, it is about a soldier, returning home from war, who does not wish to work for his father's opera company or to continue his relationship with his pre-war lover.
The film was shot in color and partly on location at the Grand Hotel, on Mackinac Island in Michigan.[2]
This Time for Keeps became the second film in which Williams's name was first billed above the title, after Fiesta.[2]
