	42nd Street (musical) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		42nd Street is a hugely successful Broadway stage musical, loosely based on the movie of the same name.
		42nd Street was revived in 2001, at the Ford Center for the Performing Arts (which, in a slight marketing gimmick, is actually on 42nd Street in New York City, unlike the Winter Garden on Broadway at 50th).
		Set in 1933, 42nd Street opens at the chorus audition for a new Broadway show, "Pretty Lady." This is the show that director Julian Marsh hopes will put him back on top after the devastation of the Great Depression.

	42nd Street (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		42nd Street is a 1933 musical movie, set on the famous Manhattan street of that name, which was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture.
		The film was directed by Lloyd Bacon with choreography by Busby Berkeley.
		The film is a fast-paced, backstage movie musical, one that changed the film musical forever and was so financially successful that it saved Warner Bros. studios from bankruptcy.

	THE CINEMA LASER DVD REVIEW-- 42ND STREET (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The plot of 42ND STREET centers on a new production to be directed by Julian Marsh (Warner Baxter), one of Broadway's most celebrated musical directors, whose lifestyle and workload has already driven him to one nervous collapse.
		Although the film is rapidly approaching its 70th anniversary, the fl and white film elements used for the transfer are in very good shape.
		Film grain is noticeable, but this is due to the limitations of the film stocks available when 42ND STREET was made and not the fine fl and white transfer.

	DVD Talk Review: 42nd Street
		Berkeley's films were a form of buoyant escapism that the nation desperately needed while in the depths of the Great Depression.
		Films like Gold Diggers of 1933, Stars Over Broadway and Footlight Parade allowed beleaguered Americans to forget their cares for a couple of hours and be transported to a fantastic world where dancers spun and swung in exotic and beautiful patterns.
		Of all the Berkeley films perhaps the best known is 1933s 42nd Street whose formulaic plot follows the events surrounding a washed up producer's attempt to mount one final Broadway hit.

	42nd Street (1933)
		42nd Street was the first of three landmark musical films released in 1933 by Warner Bros. to revitalize the musical film genre (the other two films were Gold Diggers of 1933 (1933) and Footlight Parade (1933)).
		The urban milieu of the film is filled with crisp, slangy, bitter dialogue and wisecracks, street-wise characters, topical references, desperately-striving chorines, dancers, and crew, and down-and-out references to the Depression.
		As well as being one of the most commercially-successful films of its time, it was also the first major work of Busby Berkeley, a tremendously talented choreographer, whose direction of voyeuristic, surrealistic production numbers is illustrated in extravagant, musical numbers, giant kaleidoscopes of imagery, dancing girls forming abstract designs and patterns, and innovative camera images.

	42nd Street
		The budget for "42nd Street was set at four hundred thousand dollars, a large one for that time, particularly in view of Warners' lagging financial condition.
		42nd Street is the backstage, putting-on-a-show musical par excellence, and part of its success lies in the fact that Harry Warren and Al Dubin knew the territory very, very well.
		His big solo in 42nd Street is "Young and Healthy," one of those optimistic ditties designed to boost the spirits of depressed Americans.

	Jeanette MacDonald - Music Downloads - Online
		In her films, radio and television appearances, concerts, and recordings, she sang opera, operetta, art songs, and show tunes, often with an eye toward popularizing classical music for the masses.
		While critics of later generations dismissed her most popular films as ?high camp," legions of loyal fans worldwide continued to admire her for the same qualities that sympathetic viewers and listeners had identified in her prime.
		It was the first of five films in which she appeared during the year, followed by the anthology Paramount on Parade (though her scenes were cut from domestic prints; April), Monte Carlo (August 27), Let's Go Native (August 29), The Lottery Bride (United Artists; October), and Oh, for a Man! (Fox; November).

	Images - The Machine Art of Dziga Vertov and Busby Berkeley
		At the beginning of 42nd Street, New York socialites learn that the musical’s producer, Julian Marsh, is "putting on a show." The movie depicts jeweled women and tuxedoed men as typical of a musical audience, and the wealth of the Broadway crowd is pitted against the working-class throngs who fill the rows of cinema seats.
		The audiences who saw 42nd Street were witness to the thrills of life on the stage, in its wings and on the streets of New York City.
		42nd Street was not a call to arms, but it did raise a cheer for the most important city of the time.

	At-A-Glance Film Reviews: 42nd Street (1933)
		42nd Street is one such film, but it's a bit unfair to label it that way.
		Instead of focusing on the director, producers, and star of the stage play everybody's trying to put together, the main character is a hopeful starlet played by Ruby Keeler who is initially cast as a nameless chorus girl.
		She wins us over, and we are therefore involved in the film as she struggles to "make it" in the glorious world of show business.

	Mindjack Film - The Busby Berkeley Collection
		Berkeley's Warner Brothers films in particular reflected the naughty, baudy, gaudy, sporty spirit of Depression-era America's consciousness like nothing else done in any media during that time.
		Watching all of these films together allows one to notice a glaring fact: as Berkeley's numbers became more lavish and daring over time, the films they supported became that much more formulaic.
		Except for 42nd Street (which is a direct copy of an earlier DVD release), every disc contains newly produced featurettes, vintage shorts and cartoons, and original movie trailers.

		This is in some contrast to the backstage antics that form a large part of 42nd Street.
		Of course any discussion of 42nd Street could hardly be complete without considering the song and dance numbers, bread and butter to the show.
		Yet when you depart the cinema, it's Berkeley's routines and Warren's songs that stick in the short-term memory; the former's grasp of patterns and spatial dynamics is incredible, while the latter shapes lyrics of rare beauty.

	Jerry Orbach - Music Downloads - Online
		Orbach had had roles in a couple of more films (Mad Dog Coll [1961], John Goldfarb, Please Come Home [1965]), but it was not until 1971 that he got a starring role on film in the crime comedy The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight.
		His film career was not yet ready to take off, however, and he returned to the Broadway stage in the comic play 6 Rms, Riv Vu in 1972.
		Orbach had continued to take the occasional film role (A Fans Notes [1972], Foreplay [1974], The Sentinel [1977], Underground Aces [1980]), but it was his appearance in Prince of the City (1981) that was a turning point in his career.

		"42nd Street" is one of those formula rival substitutes for the overbearing star formula chorus line movies that you see over and over.

	42nd Street, a CurtainUp review
		The new 42nd Street, like the 1980 original, is indeed a lullaby of Broadway -- a Broadway of bouncy, buoyant musicals with dancing that didn't look like pumped-up aerobics class routines and songs you couldn't stop singing long after the curtain went down.
		A wonderfully apt location right on 42nd Street in the four-year-old Ford Center which, in an architectural May-December marriage, incorporated the facades of the long closed Lyric and Apollo theaters.
		42nd Street, on the other hand, is all about great dancing and songs, with book and cleverness taking a back seat.

		The film is set in a crumbling Times Square theater, where the actors perform with no costumes and very few props.
		I have found this film to be very useful in literature and medicine classes when we read short stories and plays by Chekhov.
		By having the actors perform in street clothes, the play's contemporary impact is emphasized; the play/film demonstrates so beautifully that few life situations are new.

	Vanya on 42nd Street (1994): Wallace Shawn, Julianne Moore, Brooke Smith - PopMatters Film Review
		Its premise is not a little gimmicky: a filming of a stripped-down production of a Chekhov play, unembellished by costumes, period sets, or other trappings of cinematic verisimilitude.
		Vanya on 42nd Street may not be his greatest film, as Taylor trumpets, but it's more than a worthy capper to Malle's brilliant career.
		Shot in the then-dilapidated confines of the New Amsterdam Theater on 42nd Street, in a pre-Giuliani, pre-Disney Times Square, the movie can evoke something akin to nostalgia in its opening street passages.

	Vanya On 42nd Street : filmcritic.com Movie Review
		The film's premise is that "Uncle Vanya" is being performed by a small theatrical group, and the film simply captures the last rehearsal of the play before the costumes arrive.
		The film is absolutely faithful to the play, the stories of young Yelena (played by the stunning Julianne Moore) and her elderly husband Aleksandr, his daughter Sonya and her love for the local doctor, the doctor's pursual of Yelena, and good-hearted Uncle Vanya (Wallace Shawn), who weaves all the stories together.
		The film belongs to Shawn, who acts with such believable, raw emotion that I left the theater speechless.

		It was the first thought when I was leaving the theater, and this isn't the first Spielberg film that I left the movies wondering why he ruined a film with a sacchrine ending.

	42nd Street Movie Review at Hollywood Video
		Released in Washington, D.C. the same day Franklin Roosevelt was inaugurated, 42nd Street frankly acknowledged the realities of the Depression: its backbiting chorines and careworn crew are all too aware of the need to make money, to get and keep a job.
		The marriage of grit and glamour obviously worked for viewers in 1933: the film did boffo box office, and was nominated for an Oscar for Best Picture.
		Most relevant to 42nd Street are a fleeting glimpse of Busby Berkeley and company at work, and a demonstration of the Vitaphone process, showing how many complications came along with film sound.
