August
8, 2007 - Just found this at Amazon.com, from Warner Brothers films
of the 1930's a DVD that includes 21 complete musical numbers that
established forever the genius of Busby Berkeley. The segments are
escapism, pure and simple, except they're never simple. Instead Berkeley
shoots through floors, through roofs and through one kaleidoscopic
array of leggy chorines after another. It's worth purchasing if you
can't afford the collection below. To read
