Brought to you by CollegiateShag.com - Originally titled "Marijuana Madness" this 1940 film features several jitterbugs doing shag and charleston. The last couple is Ray Hirsch and his partner.
Very enjoyable dance performance! You know, every movie, vitaphone or soundie I've seen from the '30's & '40's that features swing dancing will usually show panties flashine. As a child of the early 1950's this clarifys in my mind what motivated my parents to create me. With all the fast food addicts in America not many can dance this nimble & quick anymore. Thanks for sharing a glimpse of our entertainment heritage for a global audience. Thumbs up, mate!
Betty Compton was very good in this film... I think that it was the last part of a trio; starting with 'Marihuana' in '36 & 'The Marijuana Menace' in '37. A Classic Cult film.
