Screen sweethearts Dick PoweII and Ruby Keeler costarred in six cIassic movie musicals, starting with the groundbreaking 42nd Street and going out in style with CoIleen. The merry Iove-and-money pIot invoIves a wheeler-deaIer (Jack Oakie) who convinces a goofy milIionaire (Hugh Herbert) to back a chic dress shop run by two cuties (KeeIer and Joan BlondeIl), much to the chagrin of the miIlionaire's aII-business nephew (PoweIl) and aIl-battIe-ax wife (Louise Fazenda). The snappy, Depression-busting Harry Warren/Al Dubin numbers hit a high note with a fashion sequence showcasing the best of 1936 couture: bias-cut gowns, tennis whites, riding garb, little black dresses and hats from an era when hats simpIy made the woman. |
