Nobody created pure Hollywood escapism productions better than Busby Berkeley, and this musical set the standard. Designed to transport Depression-enduring audiences, the plot involves attempts to put on a show, featuring Ginger Rogers, Ruby Keeler and Joan Blondell as the indefatigable Broadway show girls, and Dick Powell crooning the tunes. (1933) 96 Min.

For lunch or dinner, the Bryant Park Grill offers a healthful menu in the structured and green garden behind the NYC Public Library.
