Rambling 'Round Radio Row #2

There's not much to talk about here. 'Rambling 'round radio row #2' is a short with no meaningful story or characters to speak of, and the scene writing and dialogue is merely an excuse for the stars to sing, dance, and or play instruments in these short few minutes. For what it's worth, I think everyone involved demonstrates fine skills, and I also appreciate the care given to the sets and costume design. On the other hand, even at only 9 minutes long, this is arguably a little long in the tooth, with the saxophonists' segment being particularly ham-handed. Excepting the very end of the last bit, the only entertainment to be had here is in appreciation of the music - counterbalanced by the feeling that it's all a little too forced and contrived.

This isn't a short to go out of your way to find, but it's passably enjoyable if you come across it. More than anything else, 'Rambling 'round radio row #2' may be most notable simply as a snapshot of cinema in the early 1930s. Take that as you will.
