Some of These Days

🎞️ Movie 3 min US
1942

This was another Soundie I watched on YouTube. In this one, singer Maxine Sullivan sings about how the person she's singing to is gonna miss her. While she warbles, several other females are dancing to the tune. One of them was Winnie Johnson who was married to comedian Stepin Fetchit and once dated actor Canada Lee. She was also in the Cotton Club chorus with Lena Horne. Another one was Edna Mae Holly who was once married to boxer Sugar Ray Robinson. In another scene, she's playing with some black (stereotypically so) dolls with a man as Maxine is singing about a breakup during this scene. This was another of these "music videos" that originally played on Panorams (film jukeboxes) at restaurants, bars, and train or bus stations. Overall, I liked Some of These Days.
