　　　　　　　　舞動妳的腳步；
　　　　　　唱一闋『忘憂歌』，
　　　　　　哼一段『今宵樂』…
我們都是愛跳Cha Cha的青春兒女﹗

　　《曼波女郎》是葛蘭為『電懋』拍攝的第二部作品，也是她表演生涯中的大突破。在這之前她雖然已主演過十部電影，但只是一個稱職的新人演員而己；《曼》片卻付予了她一個無憂無慮、自由、充滿青春活力、熱情奔放的「書院女」簇新形象，旋即仿似石破天驚般，風靡了整個東南亞。甚至有論者認為「葛蘭竄紅改變了以後數年（香港）電影的製作方針，同時亦可以說是正式宣告一個新時代的來臨」（鄧小宇語）。影片以一段追尋生母的情節，暗喻香港的成長與獨立（脫離母體、結合西方文化），在接近半世紀後的今天看來，特別有意思。即就電影本身而言，賞心悅目的連場歌舞和那份青春氣息，也教人忍不住一看再看。
　　Blending all the elements of the musical genre and the coming-of-age films, Mambo Girl tells the story of a young woman(Grace Chang/Ge Lan) in search of a lost identity, her long lost mother who abandoned her soon after her birth. Instead of a happy ending of familial reunion, the film rather unusually ends on the girl's acceptance of her foster parents as real parents, with the mother quietly retreating into the darkness of the night. This theme perhaps signifies that identification of the post-war younger generation with Hong Kong as their roots. There are eight musical numbers in the film and each is handled and executed with finesse and style. at the same time fully demonstrating the musical talents of Chang. A huge box-office hit at the time of its release, the film easily stands as one of Hong Kong cinema's all-time favourites.
