Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSally panics, after dropping on the sidewalk and breaking the mirror of her make-up compact, believing this will bring her bad luck. She spots a hunchbacked newspaper vendor, and touches his hump to bring her "good luck," to the man's annoyance. The superstition dates from ancient Greece, but still in the early 20th century some baseball teams hired "hunchbacks" to bring good luck. This cruel superstition is forgotten in the 21st Century, but 1925 audiences would have howled with laughter at the "gag."

Break Some More Lights On Broadway
Constance Bennett is the big star of the revue; Joan Crawford a established dancer and Sally O'Neal s Joan's friend, new to the show, and dazzled by it all: the lights, the costumes, the parties, Miss Bennett's 'friend' Henry Kolker, who begins a play for her.
I expected this to be one of those three-girls-on-the-town comedies, but it turned out to be a serious drama about what happens to the three young women. Unfortunately, given this is MGM with its new-found gloss thanks to the designers, cameraman John Arnold (who would retire from the set to run Metro's camera department) it takes itself far too solemnly for me to take it seriously. The three ladies are fresh-faced and lovely. But this version is too title-heavy from Eddie Dowling's play for the early direction by Edmund Goulding to work its magic.
