This film footage is more flaming than "The Towering Inferno"!

A clip of this is included in the opening-credits montage for "The Sunshine Boys" (1975). It's nice to be able to finally see where it comes from!

Answers the age-old question: Is a hot-dog a sandwich?

[@gennettor8915]

No. A "Frankfurter Sandwich" is a Hot Dog. I'm sorry if it's confusing.

I never knew Judy Garland did Drag King acts...

[@Marysthirddaughter]

Wait, I'm not sure I understand this ? Its so confusing

[@doctorshawzy6477]

cannot help you..sorry

[@alvexok5523]

It's a 1930s song about hotdogs, but they were callled frankfurter sandwiches back then. Terminology was different back then, another example was women being called dames

@@ElliotNesterman I was kiddin, dude. If someone saw a really plain boring white guy they'd say, "I've never seen anything straighter in my entire life," and everyone would laugh.

-@@stevenboxleitner4612 Curiously, while Harry Rose may have been Broadway's favorite MC he must not have played well in Peoria because the next year he was replace by Jack Pepper. A little titbit: Pepper was briefly married to Ginger Rogers, 1929-31.
