What happened to Winifred Shaw´s career after these films from the mid-thirties? I think she was a very good singer.

Judy Canova, one of America's forgotten treasures. She was a big star in the forties and fifties but seems to have been forgotten. "Sis Hopkins" was wonderful. So sad. I love Judy Canova

Wini Shaw I saw at a revival of "Lullaby in Broadway" number in Manhattan in 1972 and she looked good and answered questions. But she died in 1973. She was not young in the 30s and was relegated to parts usually opposite the older Warren William. Wini had been a singer in the 20s on Broadway and like so many other Warners stars disappeared. Obviously, Wini returned to New York at least to live/

Just bought the "In Caliente" DVD. Charming movie. Love Deloris Del Rio. Beautiful woman. Edward Everett Horton at his best.

The Judy Canova piece was a real hoot. Never heard of The DeMarcos but their dance routine was excellent.

In case you're wondering, In Caliente just came out on one of those on-demand Warner Archive DVDs.

I used to wonder what the title of this film meant: "In Caliente". It was referring to a very upscale resort in Mexico, which people in Southern California could easily drive to. Agua Caliente's appeal was that liquor was available (during Prohibition in the USA) and gambling was legal (which was still illegal everywhere in the USA at the time).

Then a new political regime took over in Mexico and shut the place down, just before this film was released.

I remember Desi singing this on I Love Lucy!

I love this song and clip!

I'm glad Judy Canova's bit wasn't cut as someone suggested. In real life Judy was sophistcated, she knew what she was doing & her comedy made a lot of people laugh, Don't put her down as a dumb hillbilly. I've not seen the Demarco team showcased in such an extended eye-pleasing number. Thanks for posting! I've downloaded this whole clip as a classic keeper.

IN LOVE WITH THIS!! WHAT STYLE!!

[hebneh]

Oh brother, those daring gowns on the chorus gals - cut right down as low as possible in back, and with see-through lace that shows the cleavage in front...even on Judy Canova!

P.S. Judy - don't waste your time on Edward Everett Horton. He's not interested in girls.
