There is a lot that sets this movie apart as an original - the all-female cast in an industry where 70 percent of the roles available are for males and Rosalind Russell’s dazzling debut as a comedic genius to name two. But it is a quirky little part in the middle - barely five minutes long—that really stood out for me. In the middle of this 1939 black and white film, they shot an entire fashion show in technicolor and it breaks out on the screen like a scarlet hibiscus bursting forth out of concrete. Since I was watching the movie on the Turner Classic Movie channel, I thought it was simply another of Ted’s attempts to monkey around with a movie classic, but I later found out that was an original feature of the film. It is exactly the kind of nonsensical whimsy you just gotta love in a George Cukor film.
