Film Flashback July 17, 1939

Today's film flashback is a very brief one. You had one choice on July 17, 1939 and that was Broadway Serenade which starred Jeanette MacDonald. It was showing at the Princess Theatre. 22,000,000 million people can't be wrong!

That's it for this regular weekly film flashback, but I'm back tomorrow for another bonus installment as I go back to 1976 so I can wax rhapsodic about Walter Matthau and Tatum O'Neal.
