This song is "Lady Luck", another one in the Show of Shows. I think Winnie Lightner did "Singin' in the Bathtub" in this same film.

A lot was hidden in those days. People still had the same vices and unpleasant actions. Shame was a bigger control in those days but it didn’t stop the behaviours, it just kept them out of sight.

I wish they would lightly colorize these videos so you can get some definition and see how beautiful those costumes really were. Many years ago I was at a costume supply house and they actually had a couple of costumes from Ziegfeld Follies they supplied a lot of the bead things for the shows. And they were astonishing to look at and even back in the seventies they were very fragile who knows where they are today they may have just been disintegrated. A lot beading on chiffon doesn't make for a long-lasting garment I wish I had a camera taking a picture of them but c'est la vie

There's a certain "kitchen sink" quality to the way they keep sending out the specialty acts, though they're all great fun. Funny how the opening song is a sort of prototype of "Luck Be a Lady" (with a bit of "Lady Be Good" mixed in).

I would love to be able to direct this. I know the idea back then was to get as many girls in them, people on stage as possible, but I certainly would have had those showgirls doing a proper promenade by themselves, not all crowded in I can't really see them and they're so beautiful. Maybe in my next life

THE SHOW OF SHOWS -- While not the best of the musical extravaganzas Hollywood made during 1929/30, it's still a pretty good time capsule of pop culture from the era. Not bogged down with plot, just one novelty act after another.

More of a reflection of the changes between a 1920s approach and a 1930s approach. The 20s are all about novelty, 30s are about sophistication. I prefer the 20s myself, but can see why others may prefer the 30s.

This is a musical variety show -- all the studios made them at this time. They centered on big production numbers, singing, dancing, all introduced by a master of ceremonies. As such, they're in a class of their own, not to be compared with the "narrative" musicals that followed.
