FOOTLIGHT PARADE- Orinda Classic Movie Matinee

FOOTLIGHT PARADE (1933) depicts a fabulous era of show business when the big movie palaces would offer forty-five min. musical live shows four times a day between feature movies. James Cagney plays the hard boiled producer of these stage prologues, driven to produce three at the same time, offering great songs, the kaleidoscopic patterns of Busby Berkeley's show-stopping musical numbers and a great cast in support. Joan Blondell, Dick Powell, Ruby Keeler, Frank McHugh and of course, that old smoothie, Guy Kibbee, who would appear in-person eight years later at the opening night of the Orinda Theatre, enrich the picture.
Preceded by and presented with selected short subjects that make you re-live going to the Orinda Theatre when it was new.
