Featured review
Entertaining Short
Rhythms in Blue (1929)
*** (out of 4)
Nice and rather catchy Vitaphone short has Bobbe Arnst and Peggy Ellis doing an act where they sing their hearts out to the tunes of There Was Never Else to Do, Doll Dance and The Album of My Dreams. If you're looking for some sort of ground-breaking film then this here obviously isn't that but at the same time if you enjoy watching these old shorts then there's some entertainment to be had here. Of the two ladies I'd say that Ellis was the better since she did a nice job on the piano and I felt she had a little better of a voice. I'd also argue that the fun of watching a film like this is the fact that the two ladies really didn't do any other short like this. They both appeared in bit roles in feature films but this here is the only real way to see their act.
