Broadway (1929)

The third Paul Fejos film featured on the DVD for Lonesome, this was the weakest of the group. A fairly cliched story for the time, a song and dance couple’s future act is threatened when the female partner gets mixed up with a bootlegger. The film is fairly noteworthy for Fejos’s design for a special camera crane allowing for better coverage and more fluidity in shots, which does at least compliment its sometimes grandiose sets.
