George White's 1935 Scandals (1935)


Fox Film
Directed by George White
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Fox Movie Channel)

Broadway producer discovers Alice Faye and James Dunn in small Georgia town and transports them to the big city lights to star in his latest production. They are a big hit, but when Dunn falls in love with a showgirl the problems begin. It's almost wall-to-wall music and singing, with some elaborate, overproduced production numbers that range from average to just plain awful. The highlight is a tap dancing routine by Eleanor Powell.
