[78-L] The recording studio in MGM's Sweethearts (1938)

[David Weiner]

Getting back to my subject header, is this an actual recording or radio
studio
in the LA area, or was it built on the MGM soundstages? I'm guessing the
latter, 
but I really don't know. I don't recall seeing "On Parade" among his 1938
titles
in the CED...but I always get a kick out of seeing the musicians dressed up
in
band uniforms, something that would never happen at an actual session!

Hey Harold,

I'm sure it was an MGM soundstage, not an actual studio.  Actually, it's
supposed to be in NYC, I think they even mention that it's the 24th Street
studio. Eddy has to take a cab from the studio to Radio City for a
broadcast, which we see in back projection - then a double for him jumps out
of the cab outside the actual Radio City entrance.
