The TVI Take
1936 Best Picture winner. The life of Broadway impresario Florenz Ziegfeld.
Low cognitive demands with a sprawling biographical structure. Educational value from the early Broadway and vaudeville history. At three hours, it's a monument to old Hollywood excess — the musical numbers are spectacles of production design.
