Send us a textToday's episode is my conversation about the 1929 film Sally. I'm joined by Dan Pal from the PalCinema, Television, & Music newsletter and we talk about the use and re-use of popular songs in movies even in the 1930s and 40s, the innovative use of early Technicolor in the film, and how the film might have been much different if made a few years later once the production code was in place. You can watch Sally on Tubi and be sure to check out Dan's newsletter.Other films mentioned in this episode include:The Sound of Music directed by Robert WiseKnives Out directed by Rian JohnsonWith Byrd at the South Pole directed by Julian JohnsonComing to America directed by John LandisSome Like it Hot directed by Billy WilderThe Noose directed by John Francis Dillon (only print located at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City)Song of the Flame directed by Alan Crosland (only partial audio survives)King of Jazz directed by John Murray AndersonThe Broadway Melody directed by Harry BeaumontWeary River directed by Frank LloydOther referenced topics:2016 recording of Sally the musical on SpotifyShowboat (musical)The Honeymooners (series)Comet Over Hollywood review by J.
