Leonard & Busby Berkeley breaking-into-show-business New York City Broadway theater stage romantic gambling musical ("Greatest musical extravaganza of all time!"; about three beautiful young women who get jobs working as showgirls for the famous Flo Ziegfeld, and the movie tracks their private lives, which are very different and very complicated) starring James Stewart (Jimmy Stewart), Judy Garland, Hedy Lamarr, Lana Turner, Edward Everett Horton, Tony Martin, Jackie Cooper, Ian Hunter, Charles Winninger, Philip Dorn, Al Shean, Eve Arden, and Leslie Brooks (uncredited in her first movie as one of the Ziegfeld Girls!). Note that MGM was famous for having "more stars than there were in Heaven", and because they were under contract by the week rather than by the movie, they could put them into multiple movies each year. How rare is it for a single Hollywood movie to have three female stars who became superstars (in this case, Judy Garland, Hedy Lamarr, and Lana Turner), and of course, Jimmy Stewart also became a superstar! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: J. Clark Work Important Added Info: Note that this still has an image of artwork that won a prize in a contest MGM held. They asked art students and artists to submit their visualization of the glorified American showgirl who was once a Ziegfeld Girl, and they attracted 1,000 entrants, and they gave $1,000 in prizes, and this drawing by J. Clark Work was awarded $50. We don't know if the image was used in the movie in any way, or if any of the other 999 entries were used. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
