HI DE HO -- [1937]
HI-DE-HO
 

-- Synopsis: Cab Calloway in an apartment room, bossing around his girlfriend, Minnie and slapping her down when she back-talks him. Minnie's jealous of Calloway's female business manager, Nettie, a "high-class" bourgeois woman -- and when Cab won't drop the other woman, Minnie goes off as a woman scorned, brewing up trouble for Cab and his pals. This is a must see film, if you like Cab Calloway's music.

* Tap dancing (A TRIO) and leggy chorus girls.
