There is a weird scene towards the beginning of “Babes in Arms” in which all the children from the Vaudevillians’ ghetto (kind of weird in itself) go marching through town in an impromptu parade. Along the way they acquire torches and wooden crates. When they get to a place that has an open area and swings they pile up all the crates and make a giant bonfire. As it burns they join hands and circle the fire as girls go back and forth on the swings. It has a highly pagan feel. I guess that is the mark of Busby Berkeley.

After seeing “Babes in Arms” and “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington”, the viewer does not need a shower or to begin therapy. Good movies. Timeless.
