Review of 42nd Street (1933) by David L — 02 Aug 2014
42nd Street has a rather weak plot plus the pacing and structure are problematic as the entire first half is almost devoid of music, but the last twenty minutes or so are spectacular as they showcase some impressive sets, they are epic in execution and featuring great songs with Shuffle Off to Buffalo being a lot of fun and the titular number being the catchy, classic standout.
The movie also features absolutely amazing cinematography with some very seductive and instantly memorable takes.
