Featured review
Final bow of three great Music Hall singing stars
Another Julius Hagen musical but here the rather pallid story of a flower seller is completely eclipsed by the opportunity to see three great music hall stars perform the songs that had made them famous. It occurs in the last 20 minutes:
Charles Coborn sings: "The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo".
Marie Kendall sings: "Did Your First Wife Ever Do That?"
Florrie Forde sings a medley including: She's a Lassie from Lancashire", "Down at the Old Bull and Bush" "Has Anybody Here Seen Kelly?" "Hold Your Hand Out Naughty Boy" "Oh Oh Antonio" "Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old Kit-Bag" "It's A Long Way To Tipperary"
The three were still in great form performing songs that had done much to keep up the spirits of troops in WW1. Florrie Forde indeed died in 1940 on tour entertaining WW2 troops
Thank you to Talking Pictures TV for screening it
