starliteyes Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 16 hours ago, TopBilled said: This reminds me of a Private Screenings interview Robert Osborne did with Mickey Rooney. When they discussed these films, Mickey said (and I am paraphrasing): "We did so many Babes movies, that I'm surprised we didn't do one called BABES ON BABES." I've seen that interview, but I don't recall that remark offhand. There is a film called Babes on Swing Street, which sounds like another Mickey and Judy musical. However, since this was a Universal film, the "babes" in that movie were Ann Blyth and Peggy Ryan. Even though Mickey and Judy weren't in it, June Preisser (particularly memorable as Baby Rosalie in Babes in Arms) and Sidney Miller (probably best remembered as Moe in the Boys Town movies, but also featured in the Mickey/Judy musicals) were in this one, too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

After I made my earlier comment, I thought about the Private Screening episode. It might have been a TCM Film Festival appearance that Mickey did instead. I think Mickey said "we made made BABES ON BROADWAY and BABES IN ARMS..." then he paused and said "...and BABES ON BABES." He was clearly exaggerating for comic effect. Osborne and the audience had a good laugh. At any rate, he was poking fun at the repetitiousness of the titles. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
