The
heyday of the Warner Bros./Busby Berkeley musicals was on
the wane by 1936. Hollywood musicals by the mid-30s were starting
to shift to "book numbers," with characters singing and dancing
when they should have been talking or walking. "Gold Diggers
of 1937" is an attempt by Berkeley to follow this trend, but
still hang onto what had worked in the past for him.
The films best musical number is "All's Fair In Love and
War".
The
Cast included:
- Dick
