When theatrical entrepreneur George White’s 1933 Broadway show Melody had a disappointingly short run, he packed his bags and went west to try his luck in Hollywood. His 1934 screen edition of his famed Broadway revue Scandals (thirteen editions which he mounted during his Broadway career) was enough of a hit for Fox to give him the go ahead to mount a 1935 edition – George White’s 1935 Scandals. Unlike his stage Scandals, the film does have a (feeble) narrative that plays out between various musical numbers and specialties, but the movie’s primary claim to fame these days is that it provided another stepping stone in the ascent of Alice Faye from band singer to top tier Hollywood star.
