Warren Jackson sings the old-fashioned title song while looking cross-eyed at the show girls. Meanwhile, 16-year-old Gwen Verdon does some ballet steps while dressed in a black tutu in this soundie.
Soundies were short films, about three minutes in length. The were meant to be played on a machine called a Mills Panoram, a video jukebox that was typically to be found in bars, lounges, and similar venues. You put a dime in and got a performance from the ten on the machine. The movies would be changed weekly, and from 1940 through 1946, Mills and other companies produced more than two thousand soundies.
It's directed by Roy Mack, who spent the 1930s directing shorts for Vitagraph.
