Description
Filled with great singing and dancing performances, and graced with onscreen appearances by Eddie Cantor, Helen Morgan, Rudy Vallee, Billie Burke, Irving Berlin and even Johnny Weismuller, Glorifying the American Girl is a glowing tribute to show biz itself, unafraid to show the grit as well as the glamour. Mary Eaton, one of the Seven Little Eatons of vaudeville fame, was a star of the 1920 and 1929 Ziegfeld Follies shows. Her stint as Eddie Cantor’s leading lady in the Broadway smash hits, Kid Boots (1923) and Sunny (1927) led to her being cast in both Glorifying the American Girl and the Marx Brothers’ first film, The Cocoanuts, in 1929.
