This was Betty Boop at her sexy cuttiest in 1932 - dancing in only a hula skirt and a lei. The footage of the Samoan girl who dances at the beginning (Miri) is the same footage that was used in rotoscoping Betty's "watch ME" dance for Bimbo at the end.
Betty Boop pushed the envelope and it was hot little numbers like this one that set off the censorship laws of 1934.
And now, a little personal sidebar that has absolutely no meaning to anyone but myself:
(Oh, that's really
Pam)My uber talented college roommate's mother, was the original radio voice of Betty Boop so.......
