The Broadway Hoofer (1929)





The national hoofer epidemic passes lightly over Columbia, leaving a stimulating backstage comedy. Marie Saxon's dancing and singing, combined with her personal charm and a story tailored to measure, make this New York musical comedy star's first talking picture a success. She's cast as a Broadway musical comedy queen vacationing incog, who falls for the hoofer-manager of a fourth-rate burlesque. All Talkie.
