Haha, I grew up in New Rochelle where the new bride was from. There was a 4 story Tenement Apartment building on Huguenot St @ Center Ave right by the Railroad tracks that was low rent and had a lot of young couples starting out that lived there back in the old days of the 1930's when it was built. We all called it the Honeymoon Hotel.

wonderful movies with Busby Berkeley terpsychorean choreografies...lovely American musicals we love in Spain..movies today are mostly for psycopats

I remember watching this entire movie when I was 10 years old, and I loved every minute of it. Dick Powell and Ruby Keeler were Hollywood sweethearts to America .... box office hits.

Brilliant, witty and just wonderful!!

The newspaper ad in the very first shot says The Honeymoon Hotel has "400 Rooms / 400 Baths" - yet at the end of this clip, all the married men come trooping out of the shared mens' bathroom. If every room had a bath, this wouldn't be a bathroom like that.

"I hear this I wouldn't dare to tell" oh dear, please tell us all of your deep dark secret XD lol

Footlight Parade ( 1933 ) is a neat James Cagney film from which this small clip is from. Cagney plays a producer of Live Stage Prologue Productions which would play on stage at major movie houses before the Feature Film. It is a great film and worth watching if you can find it. I am not just saying that because I grew up in New Rochelle. Hehe.

@joezeff7513

Cagney had to fight for the role as he wanted to get away from the gangster stereotype. The Shanghai Lil number at the very end is the first time he danced on screen.

Warner did a cartoon version of this number for its animation division. The same (with minor adjustments) song only with animal characters. Cute.

Jersey City doesn't look like that anymore.

Jersey City, on the West Bank of the Hudson River, looks a lot like a miniature New York City with a tiny Manhattan rife with skyscrapers (9 of the 10 tallest buildings in New Jersey are in Jersey City), including a Trump Tower, and a huge Skyscraper owned by Jared Kushner. Jersey City has a relatively large amount of Brownstones similar to Brooklyn neighborhoods, a dilapidated neighborhood similar to the Bronx that used to be rife with burned-out buildings that have mostly been rehabilitated with a busy Firehouse called Fort Apache. There is also a district housing the poor and lower-middle-class called Greenville with an atmospheric look and feel of Queens all wrapped up in miniature. It also has the densest population for cities with at least 250k people and is probably the most diverse melting pot per capita in the country. Of course, there are more places not to park, than available parking spaces giving way to an abundance of expensive parking lots, Then there are numerous connections to Manhattan starting with the Holland Tunnell, and another tunnel restricted to commercial trains, along with several PATH subway stops going under the Hudson River and Journal Square areas connecting Jersey City to New York and Newark. There is also a Light Rail commuter passenger trains and the commuter boats sailing between Jersey City, Manhattan, and Brooklyn. Jersey City's nickname is actually the Sixth Borough going back to the 1800s as per Wikipedia.

And Al Jolson was a performer who started performing at least two decades before Ruby Keeler starred in her first film. I'm pretty sure Al is much better known than Ruby by modern audiences, because Al Jolson starred in 1927's The Jazz Singer, the first feature-length movie to have speech in it, which was a movie that was basically about a Jew who wanted to become black. He was a minstrel performer, but i've heard he performed like that to show white people black culture or something.

Well, after a few years with Jolson, poor Ruby was probably ready for an actual normal married life. Her second hubby was a doll, I hear.

When she separated from Al Jolson, Ruby Keeler had a brief affair with Dick Powell (which they did their best to keep secret). As Powell was married at the time (to Joan Blondell), they knew they could not be together openly or on a long-term basis. As noted, Keeler had a very happy second marriage to businessman John Lowe. Powell always spoke highly of her. Jolson had always been jealous of Powell and hated seeing Keeler in romantic scenes with him in movies.
