Paramount modeled betty boop after Helen Kane but never gave her credit for it. Helen sued in 1932 but unfortunately lost.

I'm so sorry my last responce was so bitchy, its proberly becuse i checked the archive and everyone was complaining haha! nevermind. I was linked to this video by someone, who said check this video out, and then i checked ther archive and everyone was complaining.

I'f i ever get another chance, i will -re-rip the movie. Funny thing is that on Youtube you can watch uploads in HD, shame The Archive, isnt the same. Good luck to you <3

@BooppoopaDoop Too bad Archive is so picky I would like to upload my print - it is pristine - but don't have the equipment to record from film to video. I tried recording the preview trailer from Dead of Night (another rarity) from the screen with one of those "Flip" devices, but the result had such a flicker that I didn't want to put my name on it. Perhaps someday I will upgrade my equipment - I have other things I would like to share - I've collected for several decades.

@Pantages98382

Yes your right, the quality is terrible, want to know the reason why? I ripped the movie but THE ARCHIVE wouldn't accept the original upload, so i converted it to 3GP, which is for mobiles, then re-converted it to another format so that the Website would allow the upload. Neverless the movie was uploaded to share to people who want to see a glimpse of the movie, quite a few downloaded it. If anyone complains i suggest uploading your own copy huh?

[Pantages98382]

Altho there seems to be great interest in this movie, decent pre-print material seems elusive. This is the best quality clip I have seen on line. Archive.org claims to have the entire film, but it is impossible to watch - someone uploaded it in the wrong aspect ratio, so it is all stretched out and there is no focus. Altho I have a nice old 16mm print, I have no way to upload it or I would, but if I have one, there are others...and there is hope.. .

Helen Kane did a great job acting in Dangerous Nan McGrew

does anyone have this movie on DVD??

[Polydactylsaurus]

@LikaLaruku There was a sound bite from an artist named Baby Esther who used and baby-singing style before Helen Kane thus disproving that the "Boop Oop a Doop" was original to Helen Kane.

They're still stealing from artists today. But thanks for the legacy you left us Helen.
