1. I saw that one in your picture! Well, about ten minutes of it.
It was really fascinating - the whole time I'm watching, I kept thinking about how bored those women must have been while rehearsing, and running through shot after shot in those scenes. That was amazing!

Kinda like the June Taylor dancers on the old Jackie Gleason show, if you're old enough to remember that.

3. I had insomnia, and watched "Golddiggers of 1935" at 3 a.m.
or at least part of it. Couldn't stay awake.

Dick Powell was so young!
