The Big Broadcast of 1937 (1936)

A cream-of-the-crop gathering of 1930’s radio stars, who lend themselves to a storyline about a failing radio station which needs to put on a huge ratings winner to have any chance of continued operation. An interesting mixture of the stars whose fame continued to grow, those who became bit players in show business history, and those who have been forgotten entirely, except at the Internet Movie Database of course!

Falling asleep during the Paradise Coffee (“The Coffee that Makes You Sleep”) Program, the band’s third trumpeter dreams he’s Athanael, an angel deputized to blow the Last Trumpet at exactly midnight on Earth. But Osidro and Doremus, two fallen angels enjoying the physical pleasures of an earthly existence, try to steal Athanael’s trumpet, enlisting the aid of suave jewel thief Archie Dexter. Athanael fumbles his first try when he saves Archie’s accomplice, Fran, from suicide. His second chance seems doomed when he’s forced to leave his trumpet as security for a meal he can’t pay for. But he gets it back just in time for a final confrontation with his desperate adversaries, dangling with them from the roof, only seconds from Midnight.

Buck Benny Rides Again (1940) Mark Sandrich, Jack Benny, Ellen Drew, Eddie 'Rochester' Anderson

Radio star Jack Benny, intending to stay in New York for the summer, is forced by the needling of rival Fred Allen to prove his boasts about roughing it on his (fictitious) Nevada ranch. Meanwhile, singer Joan Cameron, whom Jack’s fallen for and offended, is maneuvered by her sisters to the same Nevada town. Jack’s losing battle to prove his manhood to Joan means broad slapstick burlesque of Western cliches.

George Washington Slept Here (1942)

Yorkers Bill and Connie Fuller have to move from their apartment. Without Bill’s knowledge, Connie purchases a delapidated old farmhouse in Pennsylvania, where George Washington was supposed to have actually slept during the American Revolution. Much of the humor comes from the couple’s many problems they encounter while trying to fix up the place.

The Hollywood Revue of 1929 (1929)

Conrad Nagel, representing the Hollywood movie community, and Jack Benny, representing the Broadway stage community, act as the interlocutors of a musical comedy revue. A plethora of chorus boys and girls are featured front and center in some of the song and dance numbers, and provide back-up to some other acts. But the revue primarily is a vehicle to highlight a cavalcade of Hollywood movie and Broadway stage stars. One early running gag has both Nagel and Benny playing straight man to Cliff Edwards, who just wants a nice introduction to his act. Edwards would return later to be featured along with the Brox Sisters in one of the highlights of the second act, a production number around the song “Singin’ in Rain”, complete with rain soaked stage. A reprise of the song with the entire cast acts as the revue’s finale.
