Hollywood on Parade No. A-8

1933 · 11 min

A giddy, slightly surreal wax-museum lark where old Hollywood glamour, cartoon voices and a lurking vampire collide in eleven minutes of Pre-Code mischief.

Horror, Comedy, Music
Overview
In the Hollywood Hall of Fame - a wax museum - the figure of Eddie Borden comes to life and introduces us to various stars in effigy. Pining over the effigy of Clara Bow, her husband Rex Bell suggests that Eddie get on with Betty Boop. Betty asks Eddie to accompany her in a rendition of "My Silent Love."
