MGM Exec #1: I'm not sure what to do with #EleanorPowell; we don't have any projects that fit her...

MGM Exec #2: I know, let's put her in supporting roles in Red Skelton movies!

All the jobs lost to technology:

Arrangers, sheet music pluggers & pianists.
People who can actually sing!

This is the only movie where Red Skelton does not annoy the hell out of me.

Robert Young
Ann Sothern
Eleanor Powell
Red Skelton
Tom Conway
Lionel Barrymore
Reginald Owen
Rose Hobart
Dan Dailey
And Buttons the dog.

What a cast! And most of them are in just a scene or two.
MGM had an embarrassment of riches.

Happy Birthday to Eleanor “Ellie” Powell. A good friend to my Godfather AND she mentions me in a letter to him I inherited. Best dancer of her era - #EleanorPowell is a legend. #TCMParty #LadyBeGood

In the 1924 gershwin musical #LadyBeGood! #IraGershwin made the ‘gigantic red-haired harlot’-Savoy’s trademark phrase ‘You don’t know the half of it, dearie!’ into a song for #FredAstaire: ‘I’ve got the You-Don’t-Know-the-Half-of-It-Dearie Blues...’

If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumber’d here
While these visions did appear.
