Some amusing quirky things in this film


List of funny, quirky, comical things in this film:

1) The ultra whiney guy who kept whining things like "It can't be done! Oh it just can't be done!!" And James Cagney mocking him whining with him in unison one time.

2) The way the girls all got so excited every time it was lunch/dinner time, with them screaming and running all fast towards the lunchroom the second it was called

3) Dick Powell and one of the other directors (with a cigar) dancing together to demonstrate to the girls how they wanted it done.

4)A lot of funny amusing lines from Cagney, Powell, and the girls.
