For most of its length, a good, tough melodrama of a mama (Alice
Brady, excellent) living her life through her reluctant daughter
(Maureen O'Sullivan), pushing her into show business and
scaring away her suitors, and with them any chance of happiness.
Co-screenwriter Bradford Ropes, who also wrote the novel on
which "42nd Street" is based, knew this tawdry milieu intimately
and wasn't afraid to expose its seamy sides; fortunately, the movie
came just before the Production Code, so its portrayal of the
shabbiness and moral compromises of the show biz doesn't pull
its punches. It resembles "Gypsy" and the great early talkie
"Applause," and in particular, its look at backstage and onstage
vaudeville is historically fascinating. Its main shortcoming is a
too-fast, too-tidy final reel that races unconvincingly toward a happy
ending. Also, Maureen O'Sullivan, pretty and spirited as always,
doesn't really convince as a young miss aiming to become the
toast of Broadway. (She's dubbed, and that's clearly a double
dancing in the long shots.) Till that rushed denouement, though,
it's a brash and winning backstager, and Brady's uncompromising, unsympathetic performance stays with one for
days.
