The famous "sending the girl up the camera on a wire, throwing the ball down & getting into kaleidoscope patterns" part was all filmed in reverse. They were in shapes, then got up, ran to the centre & the ball was hoisted up & the girl dropped down ! Hardly any editing needed - Buzz had the music in his head & edited in the camera.

That picture at the end with all of the “dames” striking a pose... just think of all the lives behind those pretty smiling faces and how exhilarating it must have been for them. All of the mothers and grandmothers they became and how proud their children must have been of them. It was a world which is lost to us now, one where grace and elegance were standard.

@honey_bee65 4 года назад

@@errolfan - YES! The Vitaphone orchestra is so great! The way they play certain popular songs are usually my favorite versions of those songs. Ex. The way they play "St. Louis Blues" during the opening credits of BABY FACE (1933), and as she's "climbing" her way to the top. I've heard so many versions of that song and that one is my favorite. I wish I had records of JUST the soundtracks to these movies.

@honey_bee65 4 года назад

@@anthonycrnkovich5241 - Oh, definitely! You can't go wrong with sassy ass Ginger Rogers and Una Merkel. What I think is another big reason the early WB musicals were so great (besides of course the Busby Berkeley choreography and the cast) is the songs by Harry Warren and Al Dubin. I'll just randomly start singing _"by a waterfall, I'm calling yoooOOOoooOOOu"_ while doing the dishes and shit 😆

@davidhileman8567 Год назад

Harry Warren and Al Dubin can write a catchy song, I will definitely say. Between this and their work on the "Gold Diggers" movies, they sure can make a song that can compliment anything, whether it be Busby Berkeley's amazing choreography, or an animated theatrical short worked on by future greats Bob Clampett, Friz Freleng, Chuck Jones, and Bob McKimson.

@davidhileman8567 Год назад

This song was the basis for one of those animated shorts, the Merrie Melodies short, the Freleng-directed "Those Beautiful Dames", released the same year as this movie, which was the first Merrie Melodies short filmed in 2-hue Technicolor (two Merrie Melodies shorts, also released the same year, 1934, the first of which was also based on a Warren-Dubin song, "Honeymoon Hotel", were also made in color, though in Cinecolor, which was also 2-hue), and marked the Merrie Melodies' permanent change to color, while the brother series, "Looney Tunes" , remained in black-and-white for another 8 years. The 2 hues were red and green hues; Disney still had exclusivity rights to the 3-strip Technicolor process, which also utilized blue hues instead of just reds and greens, until those rights wore off in late 1935.

At 19 seconds you can see the harness just barely. I'm not trying to point out anything obvious but just slow this down (turn off the sound lol) and just look at far UP in the air she is!!!!!! Busby had a little coupla built on top of the soundstage so he could see those patterns. In those days if someone told you were putting you in a wiring harness and lifting you up to the very top of the soundstage VERY FAST and oh it's never been done before! You smiled and said where is my costume and the harness (and probably several drinks before shooting!)

It was the depression- not fun times and people were looking for anything that would divert their attention from that. Imagine a situation similar to today, when millions of people are out of work due to the pandemic. Now imagine that going on for years.
