Short description
During the Great Depression, all Broadway shows are closed down. A group of desperate unemployed showgirls find hope when a wealthy songwriter invests in a musical starring them, against the wishes of his high society brother. Thus start Carol, Trixie and Polly's schemes to bilk his money and keep the show going.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The film actually had two directors: Mervyn LeRoy was the primary director, and Busby Berkeley was not only a choreographer and stage director, but also the director of the film's musical sequences.
  • On March 10, 1933, the southern part of California was hit by an earthquake measuring 6.4 on the Richter scale. At that moment, Busby Berkeley (1895-1976) was filming one of the dance numbers at the Warner Brothers studio in Burbank, California. Due to the tremors, short circuits occurred on the set, and the lights went out. Berkeley himself barely managed to hold on to the camera crane. Many of the dancers involved in the number were on platforms over 9 meters above the floor, and Berkeley shouted in the darkness for them to get off their feet, sit on the platforms, and wait for the doors to the soundstage to be opened from the outside and for something to become visible.
