HOOPLA (1933)

Starring Clara Bow, Preston Foster, Richard Cromwell, Herbert Mundin, James Gleason
Directed by Frank Lloyd

Print: black/white
Runtime: 85 min.
Genre: drama
Print quality: B

Clara Bow, the saucy 'It' girl of the silent screen, made her film farewell in the ragged
musical drama Hoopla. Based on the stage play The Barker (previously filmed in 1927), the
story takes place during the Chicago World's Fair of 1933. Bow plays Lou, a
hootchy-kootchy dancer who is catapulted into stardom by fast-talking barker Nifty (Preston
S. Foster). Hoping to escape her tawdry existence, Lou makes a play for handsome young
naif Chris (Richard Cromwell), but by film's end she has bowed to the inevitable and returns
to the sort of work she knows best. Despite excellent production values and a big-time
promotional campaign, Hoopla was a bomb, convincing the ever-insecure Clara Bow to
retire to private life as the wife of cowboy star and future Nevada politician Rex Bell.

 

DIAMOND HORSESHOE (1945)

Starring Betty Grable, Dick Haymes, Phil Silvers, William Gaxton, Beatrice Kay
Directed by George Seaton

Print: color
Runtime: 94 min.
Genre: musical
Print quality: A

Medical student Joe Davis, Jr., tells his father that he wants to quit school and get into show
business. Joe Sr. disapproves, but gives his son a job as a stage manager at his nightclub,
the Diamond Horseshoe. Joe Jr. soon becomes smitten with headliner Bonnie Collins, but
she has no interest in him. Meanwhile, Claire, who's in love with Joe Sr., promises Bonnie a
mink coat if she'll go out with Joe Jr. so that Joe Sr. will pay more attention to Claire than
his son. Things get more complicated when Bonnie falls in love with Joe Jr. and they get
married, much to his Dad's disapproval.
