The picture is a dance festival, with three top film hoofers enthusiastically matching their best steps to intriguing Cole Porter tunes. Powell, Astaire and Murphy dance singly, in duet, and finally all together in lavish, extensive and beautiful M-G-M settings. With Frank Morgan bumbling through the film with an er- mine coat and various blondes on his arm. with the players ingratiating in their roles, with a couple of specialty acts—an amazing jugzler and a comic singer—worked in pleasantly if obviously, the new “Broadway Melody” more than fills its niche as superior light entertainment. . 4 Old-timers, incidentally, will note the similarity of this story to the original “Melody"—in which Bessie Love and Antia Page also were a hoofing team parted by the “big time.” WHAT'S INSIDE? up wh s a house without burning > of it.
