Broadway Melody of 1936
You have waited seven years for this!
Directed by Roy Del Ruth
Produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
A bright, energetic musical comedy about ambition and romance on Broadway, built on charm, wit, and the warmth of found friendship.
Lovely, gifted Irene Foster hopes that her childhood sweetheart-turned Broadway producer Robert Gordon will recognize her--and her talent. Gordon is too busy sparring with a dirt-dishing gossip columnist to notice, but his wisecracking, heart-of-gold secretary certainly does. She and Irene must use their wits to show him what he's missing!
