Until the more recent revivals of MACK & MABEL, EVERY Broadway Musical about silent movies(THE VAMP, GOLDILOCKS) failed.

Judy Garland was originally slated to play Annie Oakley in the film version of ANNIE GET YOUR GUN, but was fired due to EXTREME vocal problems and being overweight.

(There is a bootleg recording of her singing the score.)

If you add one post to each thread on Brooklyn, I think you can get Legend status. :)

I don't know anything about BROOKLYN--but what opinions do you folks have on A TREE GROWS IN BROOKLYN?

Congrats to Bobby and Mary_Ethel !

You were both legends before the magic posting counter anointed you--but you can't achieve "Dame" status until Dame returns from wherever she and Zola snuck off to.
