Show Girl In Hollywood (
1930) is an All-Talking musical comedy/drama film with
Technicolor sequences. It was adapted from the novel
Hollywood Girl by
J. P. McEvoy.
Trivia
Al Jolson (and his wife
Ruby Keeler),
Noah Beery (with his son),
Walter Pidgeon, and
Loretta Young make a cameo appearance in this film in the final reel, which was photographed in
Technicolor. All four of these actors were big stars for Warner Bros. in 1930 but only two of them (Jolson and Young) managed to keep their popularity beyond the early talkie period.
