Movie Reviews of Footlight Parade

Movie Review: A Gem !
Summary: 5 Stars

I completely agree with one friend that told me this was one of Cagney's most underated films although it is fantastic. The musical numbers designed by Busby Berkeley are outstanding and the final number "Shangai Lil" is a pleasure for moviegoers and especially if they are Cagney's fans like myself.... After seeing this movie you can understand why Jimmy Cagney would won an Oscar for Yankee Doodle Dandy nine years later, his role as Chester Kent is an anticipation of his George Cohan role...The performances by the rest of the cast are excelent especially Joan Blondell who shines as Jimmy's Assistant...

I really spend and excelent time watching "Footlight Parade" being this 1933 gem "a must see" for the legion of Cagney's fans....

Summary of Footlight Parade

James Cagney channels Busby Berkeley (who choreographs the stunning, kaleidoscopic dance routines) as a Broadway director who comes up with a scheme to break into movies through, well, stunning, kaleidoscopic dance routines. (Cagney even does some hoofing of his own.) Joan Blondell, Ruby Keeler and Dick Powell co-star in this musical extravaganza that includes such vintage songs as "Honeymoon Hotel," "Shanghai Lil" and "By a Waterfall."
