"42nd Street" (1933)

I recognize one of the actors (Dick Powell as "Billy Lawler") which possibly means I've seen it before.  If so, it's been long enough ago that I didn't remember much else from the show.  And it would've been far enough back that it was before I started this film watching quest.  MacDonald says this is the show that started the backstage story of a stage performance show storyline--and I've already seen a number of those.  If I have seen it before, it was still nice to see it again.  And "42nd Street" (the song) is still as infectious as ever.
