Review of 42nd Street (1933) by Paul J — 25 Mar 2010
This is a pioneering musical with the help of genius choreographer Busby Berkely. It is a timeless story with truly archetypal characters. Considering that sound was still relatively new in cinema, this must have been a mind-blowing experience at the time.
We get a dramatic, intense and candid insight into these Broadway artist's lives. The grittiness and cut-throat approach keeps the film relevant and the Director is an unforgettable character. The dialogue, dance sequences and constant conflict make this classic a favorite of mine.
