    Storyline

    Edit
    This musical short film salutes the chorus girl, who is seen in the background of many musical numbers, adored by those who see her but is rarely given any recognition. A bevy of singing chorus girls introduce six musical numbers from Warner Bros. feature length motion pictures which highlight the all-female chorus. They are "All's Fair in Love and War" from Gold Diggers of 1937 (1936), "I'll Sing You a Thousand Love Songs" from Cain and Mabel (1936), "The Words Are in My Heart" from Gold Diggers of 1935 (1935), "Spin a Little Web of Dreams" from Fashions of 1934 (1934), "Aloha Oe" from Flirtation Walk (1934), and "The Song of the Marines" from The Singing Marine (1937). —Huggo

    If you liked it the first time..........................
    Busby Berkeley was gone, Dick Powell departed angrily from Warner Brothers because they wouldn't give him drramatic parts. But their work appears here in this compilation short subject of their work.

    Most of the film is dedicated to the shapely women who appeared in those Berkeley numbers reprised here. As befitting the wartime moments when Three Cheers For The Girls Came Out, the last number is Dick Powell's Song Of The Marines with real World War 2 combat coverage attached.

    Berkeley and Powell were gone, but Warner Brothers still made some money off them.
