Palmy Days (1931)
5/10
Eddie Cantor, Busby Berkeley ...and the Goldwyn Girls !
30 April 2022
Light musical comedy set in a bakery business, with a couple of Busby Berkeley coreographies and lots of Eddie Cantor gags and numbers, helped by Charlotte Greenwood as a physical trainer, whose tall stature makes a comic contrast with Eddie. He stars as a false medium's assistant who is mistankenly taken by an expert and hired by the bakery owner, sucessfully transforms the business into a sort of show-cafè and then tries to prevent it to be robbed by the medium's gang (which includes a young George Raft), while falling in love with the boss' daughter (Joan Clark).
