The whole of Melody is deft, and some of the specialties, such as Dr. Wildhack's snoring numbers, are tops.

The producers of Broadway Melody of 1936 had lots of money to spend on their revue, and they spent it wisely in securing expert talent rather than famous Hollywood names.

By this time, it is no news to anyone that Eleanor Powell is one of the biggest new names in pictures... She sings pleasantly, she acts with naturalness and charm, there is no woman dancer in the world who can equal her, and she has such a nice face.

The original story is credited to Moss Hart... but it was all about the production numbers and the spotlight dances by Powell.

Despite Robert Taylor's stiff, non-singing tunr, this is the second and best of the four Broadway Melody MGM made, largely due to Arthur Freed and Nacio Herb Brown's songs and Eleanor Powell's dazzling dancing.

Strictly for those who love showbiz nostalgia.

Audience Reviews for Broadway Melody of 1936

Oct 21, 2010This film has a good, but utterly predictable, story. Fortunately this movie was funny, mostly because of Jack Benny, otherwise it would be another boring romantic comedy with musical numbers. Overall, pretty good.Aj V Super Reviewer

Oct 28, 2007Ah yes. The Broadway Melody of 1936...the sequel to the Broadway Melody (which I am reviewing next) and the prequel to the Broadway Melody of 1940. A good chance to catch the old vaudeville crowd but there isn't much to the story here.John B Super Reviewer
