The Big Broadcast of 1938 Overview:
The Big Broadcast of 1938 (1938) was a Comedy - Musical Film directed by Mitchell Leisen and produced by William LeBaron and Harlan Thompson.
SYNOPSIS
The last of the Big Broadcast vaudeville extravaganzas highlights Hope's first feature appearance - singing his signature, Oscar-winning song, "Thanks for the Memories" - and Fields fumbling through a nonsensical farce about twin brothers racing yachts to France. A horde of radio stars make their accustomed appearances.
