THE BIG BROADCAST OF 1937 (1936), directed by Mitchell
Leisen, is the third installment of the "Big Broadcast" musicals, and
possibly the best and funniest of the series. The film series follows the pattern
of the first two titles: negligible plot with plenty of memorable music
and guest stars. Jack Carson (Jack
Benny) owns the radio station this time out; he doesn't get along
with the sponsors, and many are threatening to pull their advertising
off the air.
|
Pierre is a Venetian tour guide, who falls in love with wealthy American tourist Barbara. Her male relatives think that Pierre is merely a fortune-hunter, but Barbara's mom persuades her husband to give Pierre a job in his chewing-gum factory.
The men folk finally approve of Barbara's choice when Pierre comes up with the brilliant, money-making idea of coating the gum with liquor!
|
Joel
McCrea stars as a handsome South Seas soldier of fortune who falls
in love with Dolores Del Rio, the daughter of a
Polynesian native chieftain. Alas, their idyllic romance is destined to
come to a sudden and violent end: tribal custom decrees that Del Rio
is to be sacrificed to the local volcano.
After initial resistance, the
heroine nobly resigns herself to her fate, realizing that there is no
place for her in her white lover's civilization.
|
Broadway Bad: Broadway Bad
stars Joan Blondell as a wisecracking but goodhearted chorus girl whose
husband (Ricardo Cortez) is an abusive lout. Blondell's plight makes
the headlines, which results in an upswing in her career.
Hello, Sister: Love turns into an unhealthy obsession in this offbeat drama. Millie (Zasu Pitts) and Peggy (Boots Mallory)
are two friends who leave behind the small town where they were raised
to try their luck in New York City.

Charles Boyer played his first major Hollywood role (and gets to sing in the bargain!) in the oddball musical romance Caravan. Loretta Young stars as young Countess Wilms, who is forced to wed by midnight or lose her inheritance. She impulsively chooses gypsy vagabond Latzi (Boyer), offering him a huge sum of money if he'll consent.
|
Directed by Wesley Ruggles, the musical sendup of College Humor centers around the blooming love between a college professor (Bing Crosby) and one of his students (Mary Carlisle).
|
Jack Oakie plays Finnegan, a conceited gridiron hero whose prowess on the football field is exceeded only by his appreciation of the ladies. But his strutting manner and accompanying overbearing ego have alienated his one-time best friend Larry Stacey (Lanny Ross), a serious, more scholarly type who deeply resents the adulation heaped on Finnegan.
|
Former child actor Johnny Downs acts his first adult lead in this nonsensical but charming little musical which benefits greatly from the appearance of Eddy Duchin and his band.
To keep troublesome socialite Johnny Marvin (Downs) out of mischief, Coronado Hotel manager Carlton (Jameson Thomas) persuades Duchin to hire the lad as a band member.

Dancing Feet: Dancing Feet stars Joan Marsh as Judy, a society deb who lands a job as a dime-a-dance girl to spite her wealthy grandfather (Purnell Pratt). While her fiancé Peyton (Ben Lyon) stews, Judy strikes up a friendship with Jimmy (Eddie Nugent),
a bellhop who aspires to become a vaudeville dancer.
Turn Off The Moon: Department store owner Elliot Dinwiddy (Charlie Ruggles) never makes a decision without first consulting his astrologer Dr. Wakefield (Andrew Tombes).
Problem is, Dinwiddy's dependence upon the stars to dictate his fate
has a negative trickle-down effect on his impending marriage to his
secretary Myrtle Tweep (Marjorie Gateson) -- and on the romance between store employees Terry Keith (Johnny Downs) and Caroline Wilson (Eleanor Whitley).
|
Several of Hollywood's brightest stars make cameo appearances in this comedy set in "Duffy's Tavern," a favorite watering hole from old time radio shows.
|
Grant's dreams of connubial bliss are shattered when he's forced to trail along while Landi tours the world with a huge entourage; he's also not happy with his wife's frequent temperamental outbursts.
|
The Ben W. Levy play Evergreen proved to be an excellent film vehicle from British music-comedy star Jessie Matthews. Our heroine plays a popular music hall thrush of the early 1900s, whose impending marriage into nobility is destroyed by the arrival of her long-thought-dead lover.

Every Night At Eight: Alice
Faye, Frances Langford, and Patsy Kelly play three humble factory
workers (with a Hollywoodized wardrobe beyond the budget of any genuine
factory girl) who occasionally sing together for the fun of it. They
harbor dreams of becoming famous, but the prospect isn't likely until
bandleader George Raft hears the girls harmonizing.
Melody In Spring:
Radio tenor Lanny Ross made a game bid for film stardom in Melody in
Spring. Though Ross, cast as one John Craddock, is given top billing,
the picture belongs to the delightful screen team of Charlie Ruggles
and Mary Boland as Warren and Mary Blodgett, sponsors of a popular
network radio
program. The
inimitable Hermann Bing and the three Gale sisters --Joan, Jane and June -- dominate the supporting cast.
|
A nightclub entertainer (Chevalier), is hired to pose as his look-alike (also Chevalier), a prominent aviation tycoon. The masquerade causes consternation for the entertainer's girlfriend, who of course has no idea what's going on, and for the tycoon's wife, who can't understand why her cold-fish husband has suddenly become so warm and demonstrative.
|
Broadway producer George White, who was the title character of 1934's George White's Scandals, heads for Florida following his latest hit.
He makes it to Georgia where he sees an advertisement for a show called White's Scandals.
Suspicious, he attends and learns that it is a hodge-podge variety show
put on by another fellow named White.
|
Heads Up: In this action-musical, a Coast Guard ensign must investigate a yacht
suspected of smuggling alcohol. While aboard, he falls for a lovely
young woman. The woman disobeys her mother and begins seeing the ensign
who soon discovers that the brains behind the operation is the man the
woman's mother wanted her to marry.
Pointed Heels:
William
Powell was still in his tux-and-top-hat period when he starred in
Pointed Heels. The scene is Broadway, where millionaire Robert
Courtland (Powell) promises to back a new musical production on the
proviso that bit player Lora Nixon (Fay Wray)
be given a major role.

It Can't last Forever: Theatrical agents Russ Matthews (Ralph Bellamy) and Al Tinker (Robert Armstrong) try to make a quick buck by promoting bibuolous vaudeville fortune-teller Dr. Fothergill (Raymond Walburn)
as a genuine prophet.
Navy Wife: A Kathleen Norris
novel was the source for this romantic drama, which begins when widowed
navy doctor Quentin Harden (Ralph Bellamy) falls in love with nurse Vicki Blake (Claire Trevor).
Despite her awareness that most naval marriages end in divorce, Vicki
says "yes" when Harden proposes.
|
The Lottery Bride: Based on
"Bride 66", a tone poem by composer Herbert Stothart, The Lottery Bride
takes place in a distinctly Hollywoodized Norway. Ever on the lookout
for extra cash, heroine Jenny Swanson (Jeanette MacDonald) coerces her
sweetheart Chris Svenson (John Garrick) to participate with her in a
three-day marathon race.
One Heavenly Night: Evelyn Laye plays Lilli, a demure flower girl at a Budapest theater who
worships
the show's star, the temperamental and highly flirtatious Fritzi Yajos
(Lilyan Tashman), despite the admonitions of her friend Otto (Leon
Errol). Fritzi, however, commits one indiscretion too many and the local prefect of police (Henry Kolker)
orders her to take a six months "vacation" in the country, but the
highly combustible chanteuse is loath to leave her many lovers and
convinces Lilli to go in her stead.
|
Before sitting down to watch Love and Hisses, it's important to know that columnist Walter Winchell and bandleader Ben Bernie were engaged in a phony but highly publicized feud in the late 1930s. For the purposes of this film, the source of the Winchell-Bernie contretemps is pretty nightclub singer Simone Simon.
|
Midnight Club: Everybody in
The Midnight Club is seeing double, and it's all the handiwork of slick
London criminal mastermind Colin Grant (Clive Brook). Anyone who wants
to commit a crime and get away with it had better get in touch with
Grant, who obligingly provides exact doubles of the criminals so as to
establish an alibi.
Yours For The Asking: In this crime comedy, a street-savvy gangster involves himself with a
Miami socialite. Together, they conspire to turn her familial mansion
into a secret gambling casino. The hood is convinced her beauty will
draw customers and with the ensuing profits, the two will be able to
pay their debts.

Moonlight and Pretzels 1933 - 80 min.
In this musical, a promoter of songs finds himself marooned in a
deadly dull little town during the Depression. While there, a lovely
girl helps him put on a Broadway show supported by a successful
gambler. Lyrics by Yip Harburg.
Wake up and Dream 1934 - 75 min.
Wake Up and Dream was part of a concerted and successful effort
to turn radio crooner Russ Columbo into a major movie star. The story
is the old saw about a trio of vaudevillians, Paul (Columbo), Charley
(Roger Pryor) and Toby (June Knight), who have a falling out when both
Paul and Charley fall in love with Toby.
|
A remake of the silent film Her Sister From Paris, Moulin Rouge stars Constance Bennett in a dual role as twin French entertainers.
|
The Earl Carroll Vanities, a popular Broadway revue of the 1930s and '40s, is the setting for this murder mystery.
|
My Marriage: In this crime
drama, a girl whose father was murdered by gangsters wants to marry
into a rich family. Her fiance's mother hates the idea, but consents to
the marriage so that she can break it up later. However, she changes
her mind about the whole thing when it is revealed that her other son
was involved with the murder.
Wild Gold: This off-beat romantic melodrama contains elements of comedy not
usually found in the genre as it tells the story of the love between a
show girl fleeing from her husband, a grifter. She heads to a mining
company and ends up involved with a dam engineer. When a dam
accidentally breaks, the engineer's wife is conveniently swept away.
Happiness ensues. The flood footage was lifted from The Johnstown Flood (1926).

|
After several false starts, opera star Grace Moore became a motion picture success in the sublimely assembled One Night of Love.
Moore
opens the film by losing a radio talent contest in New York. She
disconsolately heads to Europe, where the best job she can come up with
is singing in a restaurant. Here she is discovered by brilliant
voice-teacher Tulio Carminatti, who carefully nurtures Moore
until she becomes the toast of the European opera world.

Gladys Swarthout, formerly of
the Met, stars as Ilona Boros, a peasant girl with a magnificent voice
who becomes a pawn in the rivalry between opera tenor Tony Kovach (John Boles) and his business manager Zoltan Jason (John Barrymore).
Both men are infatuated with
the beautiful, but cold, Countess Foldessy (Claire Dodd), and Tony plans to make Ilona a star so
that Jason will be attracted to her instead. The scheme backfires, of
course, and soon both men are fighting over Ilona, the outraged countess
left to instead pursue Jason's butler, Von Hemisch (Curt Bois).

|

Charles Starrett plays a movie star who
wearies of Hollywood and decides to get a college education. He enrolls
incognito in a small university, much to the discomfort of his managers Walter Connolly and Jimmy Durante.
Durante heads for college himself, hoping to
sabotage Starrett's plans and bring him back before the cameras. The film gives full
head to such guest stars as bandleader Louis
Prima, vaudevillian Chaz
Chase (who had a cigar-eating act), radio's Professor Quiz (Dr. Craig E. Earle), and
short-subject headliners The Three Stooges (with Curly!)

|
