  • a monster production!!! love it !

  • Actaully, Dick Powell became a TV producer in the '50s, 'erwache', heading Four Star Television, and was also host/actor of his studio's "FOUR STAR PLAYHOUSE" (1952-'56), "ZANE GREY THEATER" (1956-'61), and "THE DICK POWELL SHOW" (1961-'63)- which ended shortly after his death in 1963.

  • I've always loved the films from Hollywood's "Golden Era", ever since I was a child. I didn't see this film until I was an adult and the first time I saw it it totally wowed me. It's got everything. Drama, sex, emotion and the chest thumping rhythm and percussion of all those dancers tapping in unified perfection. I STILL get goose bumpy when I see it. Thanks so much for posting it.

  • all the F/X, digital enhancement, and modern production method simply cannot touch the pure ART of this masterpiece. This is not to knock today's cinema, and there are definitely things I like. But this was art for the sake of art.

  • The sets were designed by Anton Grot; George Barnes was director of photography; George Amy was film editor. The music was arranged by Ray Heindorf, and performed by "The Vitaphone Orchestra", under the direction of Leo Forbstein.

  • sounds like... reminds me, in parts, of stravinsky's 'rite of spring.'

  • This won an academy award for best song of 1935. The amazing thing about this and all other Busby Berkely numbers is that the editing was done in the camera instead of the editing room. The musical numbers were meant to be seen on the big screens of the theatres of the day, they were truly larger than life.

  • Wow. Just wow.

  • WOW... got to be one of the best scenes commited to film.

  • The Busby Berkeley musicals were a perfect respite from the rigors of the Great Depression. His brilliant choreography is even evident today in movies,TV and commercials e.g., ''By a Waterfall, etc.'' Sadly, Dick Powell, who sang many numbers penned by Warren and Dubin in Busby's musicals, hung up his singing career and went on to produce and star in Zane Grey westerns in the 50's.
