Everybody Sing (1938): The daughter of theatrical parents goes off to sing in a musical show produced by their former cook, who loves her sister.

Everybody Sing (1938): The "Rocky Horror Picture Show" of its day, this early audience-participation extravaganza is essentially an offshoot of the popular holiday sing-alongs of Handel’s Messiah. Obsessed fans dressed as their favorite saviors of mankind and mimicked the intertitles (holdovers from the earlier silent version of the film).

Everybody Sing (1938): Noel Coward's play "Easy Virtue" was given a new title for this Hollywood production. Unfortunately, the script was also revamped effectively watering down much of Coward's wit which had originally included subtle homosexual and drug references. A few high points, however, include both the kitchen and the haberdashery scenes as well as a few interpolations of Coward's own popular songs of the day.

Everybody Sing (1938): Big Band leader Freddy Johnstone is on top of the world until his fiancee leaves him for another man. Despondent, Freddy turns to the bottle and looks to lose everything, until his brother Teddy is struck by a car in front of him. Teddy's dying words convince Freddy to turn his life around, and soon he's back leading the band. In the last scene Freddy's seen winking at a pretty girl in the audience - he's back in business.

Everybody Sing (1938): Trendy "reverse-psychology" film in which all that is projected onto the screen is a front-view of a movie audience appearing to look out at the real audience, who were in turn expected to respond with spontaneous shoot-outs, car chases, songs, love scenes, and witty dialogue, thus saving the producers a heckuva lot of money. The project backfired when the Screen Actors Guild sued the real audience, the real audience sued the fake audience, and director Stanley Kubrick sued planets Mars through Pluto inclusive for "getting in my light." Nevertheless, the film was notable for inspiring Picasso's "I'm just going to sit at home and not talk to anyone" period and musician Donovan Leitch's Come to My Backyard and Argue with Me about Baseball album.

Everybody Sing (1938): This oft-overlooked musical send up of Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs pulls out all the stops. The cast from The Grand Ole Opry radio show belt out immutable classics like Tragic Mirror, Heigher-Ho, and I Whispered But You Didn't Hear Me.
