It was a follow-up of sorts to the successful The Broadway Melody, which had been released in 1929, although, there is no story connection with the earlier film beyond the title and some music. The film was written by Harry W. Conn, Moss Hart, Jack McGowan and Sid Silvers. It was directed by Roy Del Ruth and starred Jack Benny, Eleanor Powell, Robert Taylor, June Knight, Frances Langford, Sid Silvers, Buddy Ebsen and Vilma Ebsen (in their first film debut). It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture. PlotIrene Foster (Eleanor Powell) tries to convince her high school sweetheart, Broadway producer Robert Gordon (Robert Taylor), to give her a chance to star in his new musical, but he is too busy with the rich widow (June Knight) backing his show. Irene tries to show Gordon that she has the talent to succeed, but he will not hire her. Things become complicated when she begins impersonating a French dancer, who was actually the invention of a gossip columnist (Jack Benny). Cast{{col-begin}}{{col-break}}
This was Powell's first leading role, and her first film for MGM. She would appear in the next two entries in the Broadway Melody series: Broadway Melody of 1938 and Broadway Melody of 1940. (These films were not related to each other in terms of storyline.) This also marked Ebsen's film debut. Though she was dubbed in this film by Marjorie Lane, Eleanor recorded "You Are My Lucky Star" with Tommy Dorsey and His Orchestra (Victor 25158). Soundtrack
AccoladesThe film was nominated for three Oscars at the 8th Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Writing (Original Story), and Best Dance Direction, winning the latter. [5] As this film is the second in a film series (though not a direct continuation), it could be viewed as the first "sequel" to ever be nominated for Best Picture. The film is recognized by American Film Institute in these lists:
Box officeAccording to MGM records the film earned $1,655,000 in the US and Canada and $1,216,000 elsewhere resulting in a profit of $691,000.[2] References1. ^{{cite book |title=Movie Time: A Chronology of Hollywood and the Movie Industry from Its Beginnings to the Present |last=Brown |first=Gene |year=1995 |publisher=Macmillan |location=New York |isbn=0-02-860429-6 |page=125}} In New York, the film opened at the Capitol Theatre, the site of many prestigious MGM premieres. 2. ^1 2 {{Citation | title = The Eddie Mannix Ledger | publisher = Margaret Herrick Library, Center for Motion Picture Study | place = Los Angeles}}. 3. ^{{cite book |title=Movie Time: A Chronology of Hollywood and the Movie Industry from Its Beginnings to the Present |last=Brown |first=Gene |year=1995 |publisher=Macmillan |location=New York |isbn=0-02-860429-6 |page=125}} In New York, the film opened at the Capitol Theatre, the site of many prestigious MGM premieres. 4. ^[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0026144/soundtrack Broadway Melody of 1936 (1935) - Soundtracks] 5. ^{{Citation|title=Broadway Melody of 1936|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0026144/awards|accessdate=2018-05-30}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.afi.com/Docs/100Years/songs400.pdf |title=AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs Nominees |format=PDF |date= |accessdate=2016-07-30}} External links
