Broadway Gondolier (Warner Bros.) (1935)

EXPLOITATION Say It With Song Titles We’ve been told the time’s ripe for a new-type dialogue contest. This looks to us like it might do the trick. Contestants fill in blank balloons with song titles, cleverest answers inserted nabbing the ducats. List of song titles are suggested each day to help ’em, but they can use their own if they see fit. Contest runs five days, but can be used for less by omitting an installment or two. Illustrations available in one mat—order mat No. 601—60c.

This time instead of saying it with music, you tell it with song titles. The popular film stars Dick Powell, Joan Blondell and Adolphe Menjou posed especially for the photographs used by the ................ (newspaper) in this contest, which is open to everyone who appreciates an evening of fun. Here are the few simple rules: Today, and for the next four SVS: athe: =. sn cs (newspaper ) will print a series of ‘‘talking strips’? showing Dick Powell and Joan Blondell, who were the popular stars of ‘‘Gold Diggers of 1933,’’ in conversation. Or it may be that Joan is talking with Adolphe Menjou. However, only one side of the conversation will be given. You will note in today’s strip that everything Dick Powell says to Joan takes the form of the title of a popular song. Now Joan, who with Dick Powell heads the large star cast in Warner Bros.’ highly praised comedy ‘“Broadway Gondolier,’’ would naturally reply in the same language—a song title. What she says is for you Song and Movie Fans to determine. Of course, you must find a song title that will make a real answer. For instance, you will see that in the first picture Dick Powell Says: ‘““Give me a little kiss, will ya, huh??? It may well be that Joan replies: ‘“No, no, a thousand t‘mes no.’’ To Dick’s inquiry, ‘‘ ‘V’hat’s the reason I’m not pleasin’ you?’’, Joan might well say, ‘‘You’re blase.’’ But when Dick says ‘‘J got five dollars,’’ can’t you imagine Joan declaring ‘‘7’ll never say never again’’? Now it’s up to you. Don’t use the titles given as suggestions. Supply your own for this strip and the others to follow. Write or print them plainly, and remember they must be complete in themselves. Save the strips until you have supplied the song title replies in all five of the strips, then send them to the ‘‘Broadway Gondolier.’’ Contest Editor.
