3 things about Busby Berkeley’s THE GANG’S ALL HERE [1943]
1. “I know what I’d do if girl take my man away from me.”
“What do you mean?”
“I break her into little hunks. And then I break him into little hunks. And then I take all the little hunks and—Well, good-bye. I must do some rehearsalings.”
2. Banana wave.
3. She teaches him how to dunk a donut.#3things #movies #musicals #busbyberkeley #cinema #carmenmiranda

42nd Street (1933), arguably the greatest musical of them all. Hardboiled, sexy, sassy, snappy plus those Busby Berkeley production numbers. It's like a delicious cocktail but with enough hard liquor in it to give it a real kick. Movie magic.
My review: https://dfordoom-movieramblings.blogspot.com/2024/04/42nd-street-1933.html

Wow, the final number in Busby Berkeley's 1943 "The Gang's All Here" is more psychedelic than 2001: A Space Odyssey. And the earlier infamous "Giant Banana" number featuring Carmen Miranda is like some sort of South America meets Dali fever dream. Plus, Benny Goodman! My eyes were riveted to the screen from beginning to end.

Legs legs #legs and then some! While Miss Bi… Miss Rich (#ClaireDodd) chats with Nan's boss Chester Kent (#JamesCagney), Nan (#JoanBlondell) absent-mindedly puts on two #stockings on one (lovely) leg, removes it, then slips it onto the other: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=6HCXA4wrZgo

My partner always mentions that Busby Berkeley’s choreography sequences remind them of cocktail shrimp arrangements 😩

Busby Berkeley and his chorus members during production of “Footlight Parade” (1933). Berkeley is seated just below the piano in the lower right.
