Date On a Clothesline
Previously, I posted Finian's playful red union suit dancing with Tommy Steele and Petula Clark in the colorful musical, Finian's Rainbow.
Back in February 2023, I featured another famous face, the unparalleled Joan Blondell. It was in 1934, another Warner Bros film. Back then, she and her laundry were featured in black and white, not in color like the clothesline laundry in Finian's Rainbow. "Living color" was a few years away.
In this feature film, Miss Blondell was courted by first one union suit that was hanging out on her laundromat clothesline. She sang and promenated out behind her business after washing numerous customers' long underwear. (What is it about Warner Bros movies and union suits?!?!)
Remember these scenes: love at first site?

But soon, a new "Suit-er" reaches out to her in friendly, loving advances!
...The long underwear snaps off the clothesline. She and her new union suit beau stride away...
But what's this? Other union suits are quick to show their attention to the maiden. How much they love and appreciate her warm embrace, the one who so tenderly washed them ardently clean!

In fact, a whole army of union suits pays her homage....
So many in fact, they bring the whole lot of them down around her ears!
