  • "Why that's Jesse Owens, the racin' man!" - a reference to the American winner at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin - who was black, to the distress of the Nazi regime.

  • @hebneh Why thanks for that piece of trivia, didn't know that fact at all, how amusing. Knowing certain facts like that about these days and then seeing it pop up in a movie in direct reference is really delightfull. 

  • This has the wrong aspect ratio, making the girls look squat and heavy. Whatever conversion product this was a "trial version" of, I hope you didn't buy it, because it's broken. :)

  • No I didnt buy, I just needed something quick to take a little clip out of this movie. Do you know of any free programs to remove small segments from films?

  • I met Ruby in 1992 , she called me to repair a handrail in her house I don't remember much, accept that she seemed lonely & willing to share some stories about who she was 2 me & she knew James Cagney, I knew whom he was, & told me she was a dancer I stopped over a couple more times she told me more stories & she must have been down that day she said that she had stomach cancer & was dying & that day she asked me to return her house phone to SNET in Danbury & I told her I would but didn't.

  • her taps makes me feel very hard

  • @orcarus I agree. Believe it or not, there was life before widescreen and such films look best when viewed as they were intended to be viewed, NOT as fake widescreen, NOT filling the screen (as can be accomplished with big-screen TVs). In fact, this tampering looks even worse than panned-and-scanned widescreen films (which, let's face it, look pretty bad).

  • mmm this clip is a great peckerpuller

  • moonlightorchi99: this movie was released on DVD about a month ago from Warner Archive.

  • There are available two Busby Berkeley DVD box sets, which contain some wonderful Ruby musicals of the '30s.
