"Enjoy her old films. Especially Gold Diggers of 1933."

*******************************************************

She's my favorite. America's Sweetheart. 42nd Street, Gold Diggers of 1933, and Footlight Parade were especially great.

Her Shanghai Lil in Footlight Parade was a brilliant reference to Marlene Dietrich's Shanghai Lily in Shanghai Express, which came out just one year earlier.

Agree. Dick Powell is great with her too.
