I'm looking for any documentaries that reference either of these two films, interviews with the stars, if any, or really ANYTHING relevant to either of these two films. IF you know of something, posting a link or letting me know would really help me out! Thanks so much!!

Not sure if it’s what you’re really looking for, but some of the musical numbers of Broadway Melody are highlighted in the That’s Entertainment films (I don’t remember if there was any real in-depth information on the film in the narration when it was covered).

I can tell you Frank Sinatra misstates at the beginning of That's Entertainment! that the Hollywood Revue was the first all talking-all singing-all dancing movie. Completely wrong but the narration allows him to label "Singin' in the Rain" as the studio's theme song down through the years.

Broadway Melody is referenced in the 5 DVD Box set "Hollywood Singing Dancing". On disc 1 there is a 2 minute long section which include a 1997 interview with Anita Page. Hope this helps.

I purchased my copy online here in Australia from EzyDVD.com.au. It's still listed on their website.The episodes are apparently available separately. Be careful - there are a number of similar box sets available online with almost identical titles. My box set is on the Ovation label hosted by Shirley Jones (Region free, PAL).
