When this was made my mother was a baby, and after 89 years she has just seen her father Ivor Mairants on the left with the moustache singing in the Fox Cubs. What a lovely surprise!
Great Depression horrific, but yeah keep those movies coming. Here's to the end of wars, religion and folks thinking we're not all in this together, dear ones.
L_O_V_E this!!!😚 I cannot get enough of 1:04 to 1:11 {I imitate them}😁 the choreography is excellent! Do I even have to mention that very HOT music?! The ladies' exit at 2:25 °YES°!😉
I'm surprised to see outfits this revealing in the first half of the 1930s. It seems that theater has always followed different rules than the rest of society.
Contrary to popular belief, cabaret came out of Europe in the 20’s there’s a reason why it was called roaring. Not until the mid 40’s we start seeing more conservative sentiments in shows like this.
1934 is when the Hays code started biting in Hollywood. Watch movies made 1930-33, some of them touch on subjects that Hollywood wouldn't touch again for 30 years. The Hays code specifically cracked down on movies the public wanted to see.
Found this hot performance while skimming through København, Kalundborg og - ?, a film that features part of Louis Armstrong's outstanding 1933 concert in Copenhagen, Denmark. Roy Fox and the band appear 52 minutes into the film and play Some of These Days, Wheezy Anna, and It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing). The film was uploaded to UA-cam only a month ago, and except for the part with Louis Armstrong, I'm not sure many in the English-speaking world have seen it.

This is a terrific production number! I hope you also saved the other numbers that the Fox band played and will upload them also? As the film link you gave has been sadly taken down. I enjoyed this high caliber chorus routine alot!
@@Matt78collector The Wizard of Oz was released in 1939 and it is mostly in color. The scenes in Oz are in color and the scenes in Kansas are in black & white. Color was widely used in films by the early 1950s.
@@Matt78collector Color was used as far back as 1929 to highlight musical sequences in movies.

@@wordsofcheresie936 Yes, but those were rare. I said "color took off in the late 1950s" Color was used very rarely in films during the late 1930s and beyond but it was not widely used until the 1950s as you stated

Love it.
I find this very entertaining, thanks for posting
Sass and class thirties style. Feeling down? Just watch this.
I wish this were in color.
Yes, but in the 1930s, color was rarely used. Color took off in the 1950s
