Trivia and QuotesQuotes Janie to Tod as she`s dumping him for Patch: "I love to say `can it` and I love shoes with ribbons on `em and I got a perfect passion for zippers."
Tod: "You can put zippers on your sables if you like."
Janie: "No, I`m afraid `them things` won`t mix with those things."
Janie `Duchess` Barlow: [reading a note from Tod] Don`t say `them things`. Don`t say `can it`. Don`t say `guy`. Don`t buy shoes with ribbons on them. Don`t forget, what`s a striptease on 2nd Avenue is art on Broadway. The $50 is to buy you a dress without a zipper.
Janie `Duchess` Barlow: You didn`t stop to think that I might have to wrestle my way home did you?
Rosette Henrietta LaRue: That`s all right. Let him insult you. Plenty a girl has cashed in on a good hearted insult.
Janie `Duchess` Barlow: I`ll stick to those thousand-to-one shots - sometimes they win.
Janie `Duchess` Barlow: I`m like the guy throwing quarters in the slot machine. I keep on trying.
Janie `Duchess` Barlow: Sorry to tell ya, but I`m the kind of investment that doesn`t pay.
Girl with Tod: The judge will give you 15 years for what you`re thinking.
Tod Newton: It`d be worth it.
Patch Gallagher: Say... what`s this you`re dishing out?
[last lines]
Janie `Duchess` Barlow: Can`t you take it?
[first lines]
Girl with Tod: I don`t like the looks of this place Todd.
Tod Newton: Ah, come on. You`ll get a lot of laughs.
Janie `Duchess` Barlow: I`ve got good legs, Mr. Gallagher.
Patch Gallagher: Yes, so I`ve noticed, but don`t let them run away with you.
Janie `Duchess` Barlow: What kind of a guy is Patch Gallagher, Rosie?
Rosette Henrietta LaRue: Compared to him an elephant`s hide is tissue paper, but he sure knows his stuff.
Janie `Duchess` Barlow: [to the heavy drinking Tod Newton] You sure drink a good dinner.
Judge: What`s your name?
Rosette Henrietta LaRue: Rosette Henrietta LaRue! Occupation: hipswinging!
[the court erupts in laughter]
Judge: Now, Miss LaRue, just what constitutes a striptease?
Rosette Henrietta LaRue: A good constitution and a couple of zippers.
[the court erupts in laughter again]
Judge: Don`t be ambiguous.
Rosette Henrietta LaRue: Oh, I won`t if you won`t.
Trivia
When Franchot Tone reads the program for the play, the cast listed therein includes the real names of all the performers except Joan Crawford, whose character name is listed. Even the chorus girls are listed by their real names.
Ted Healy is actually credited as `Ted Healy and His Stooges,` but because the Stooges are also credited individually later (as Stagehands), he is listed just as `Ted Healy`.
Fred Astaire`s movie debut. Though he was reported to have appeared years earlier in the silent film Fanchon, the Cricket (1915/I), he and his sister Adele only visited the set; they did not appear on camera in that one. | ||
