Wonderful to see Betty, and of course the completely underrated Toby Wing? Why was she overlooked? Does anyone know? What a beautiful, sweet face!!
-
@bluedoris88 : Indeed. That's teenaged Betty!
-
the first girl looks like betty Grable?
-
Very interesting to see Busby experiment with some ideas in this early piece.
He would later use the "getting out of bed" idea in Dames, the "walking round & then up stairs" in Only Have Eyes For You, & the "water patterns" in By a Waterfall. (He didn't quite get a proper overhead shot in this clip.
-
Spoofed by Mel Brooks in "History of the World, Part I".

At 1:00....Toby Wing! Yum!

Isn't this what Muslim heaven is supposed to look like?

It's not Lucille Ball. However, she did appear in Busby Berkeley's "Keep Young and Beautiful" and "Build a Little Home" numbers in the 1933 movie "Roman Scandals".
-
@BusbyRocks1 I also spotted Lucille Ball (1:25-1:31) and Paulette Goddard (1:51)!
