Hot feet and more in an entertaining revue
For a 21-minute short, this little film is packed with talent. Sure, it's not the A-listed performers here, but there's enough variety in this Warner Brothers "extra" to entertain anyone. The screenplay or plot shouldn't even figure in here. As with some feature length old- time musicals, it's more of a revues with various song and dance, comedy and other routines. And that's entertainment.
The main plus for "Main Street Follies" is the dancing of Hal Le Roy. The guy could move his feet faster than anyone alive – and he did it in some whirlwind dance scenarios. The film has some decent comedy in a couple of clowns in a horse costume, and some good singing from a quartet known as "The Cavaliers" back in the 1930s.
The final good bit of entertainment in this is the acrobatics of the Arthur Petley Troupe. This group combined trampoline and trapeze for some entertaining routines. The film even included a song and dance number with some of the chorus girls running the trampoline.
It's a nicely done short that reminds me of the variety shows we saw on television decades ago (Ed Sullivan and others). Just an assemblage of various acts and routines with song and dance and animals and comedy. Hey! Sounds a little like vaudeville, doesn't it?
