Movie Song of the Month: “We're in the Money”
I'm probably tempting fate by posting this song so close to April 15, but then again I really, really like this song. It's “We're in the Money” from Gold Diggers of 1933.
If nothing else, it got me to appreciate Ginger Rogers in a way I never did before. Granted, it's a young Ginger Rogers but still...
And, hey, I'd promise you all that I'd post something cheerier.

I love that song. Love me some Ginger.
although, of course, I could quibble and point out the ironic intent, since they get cut off by the bailiffs at the end ...
but I won't. Aren't the chorus girls GORGEOUS? every time I watch an old Berkely movie I start wondering about what happened to the chorines.
Yes, those chorus girls are gorgeous. I sometimes wonder whatever happened to them as well.
And yes, I get the song's ironic intent and have commented on it in an earlier post. But the song is executed so well that one is tempted to ignore that point.
