A Naughty, Gaudy, Bawdy Movie Musical Landmark.
Meet a dewy-eyed ingenue, a gee-whiz tenor, stuck-up stars, hard-up producers, brassy blondes and "shady ladies from the 80s." They're all denizens of 42nd Street, belting out ageless Harry Warren/AI Dubin songs and tapping out Busby Berkeley's sensationaI Depression-Iifting production numbers.
The put-on-a-show plot spins merriIy, fulI of snappy banter and new faces Ruby KeeIer , Dick PowelI and Ginger Rogers. The show-stopping numbers stilI dazzle. Looking and sounding its best in years via this new digitaI transfer from the restored originaI camera negative and opticaI audio tracks, 42nd Street shows that good times never go out of style. |
