Being a big fan I guess I'm the only one who knows this. Betty Grable made her first screen appearance in this movie. She's one of the dancers. Her mother lied about her age. She was 14 but said she was 16. Eventually she was let go but when she was old enough she played many bit parts through the '30s. By 1939 she left a Broadway play to go to 20th century fox to replace Alice Faye in Down Argentine Way 1940. The rest is history. She became the top female box office draw from the early '40s to the early '50s. MM came in and took over as the Fox blond. Grable made a few more movies and left to pursue television and Vegas. My favorite movie blond.

Anne Pennington, a great Ziegfeld star I never thought I'd see dance. Thanks to KZbin, no problem! She ended up dying, not exactly well off, as her film career never took off, and her dance roles diminished as she aged. It was said she "became a familiar but unfortunate presence in the lobby of the Times Square Hotel and at the Horn & Hardart automat, often seen sitting alone with a cup of coffee." When she died at 77 the Actors Fund and Benevolent Guild paid for her funeral and plot. Sigh!

There are silent and early sound films that are considered "lost" because of this. They're still finding copies of films thought to be lost, stored in theaters and private homes all over the world.

Sort of like the pre-game ralleys in High School? Where some of the HS babes would have a routine? Or NYC, or Hollywood? A show, show like with Judy Garlen? In the 1930s?
