"Lullaby of Broadway" is a #popular #song with music written by #HarryWarren and lyrics by #AlDubin, published in 1935. The lyrics salute the #nightlife of #Broadway and its denizens, who "don't sleep tight until the dawn." The song was introduced by #WiniShaw in the #musicalFilm #GoldDiggersOf1935, and, in an unusual move, it was used as background music in a sequence in the #BetteDavis film #SpecialAgent that same year. Furthermore, again that year.

Wondering how I'd never seen this before today. Sheesh. Davis's character was a real piece of work.

Given that it was released in 1934, the melodrama must have seemed very fresh and real.

Um, not so much today, but it was a good movie!

As a person who likes old films, how have I never seen Now, Voyager?

Really wonderful. Bit of a weird third act wth Tina.
