Movie Info

A struggling dancer (Joan Crawford) is working in a burlesque house until a wealthy man (Franchot Tone) catches her act. He convinces the makers of the picture he is bankrolling to let her have a shot, despite the protests of its director (Clark Gable). She works hard, though, and soon finds herself a star. Fred Astaire and the Three Stooges make cameo appearances.

Audience Reviews for Dancing Lady

What an absolute delight. This little gem from 1933 has not gotten anywhere near the acclaim it deserves. If you're a fan of 1930s American cinema (and who isn't?), you have to put "Dancing Lady" on your list. I enjoyed every second of it. I'd even go so far as to say it's my new favorite early-30s movie.

A good cast, but an average story of dance and romance between show people and rich people. It wasn't all that interesting, but it's an okay movie.
