Review of Stormy Weather

I was happy to see this group of great talents getting a rare chance to show their stuff.Sad to see talented black folks restricted to all black movies that were few and far between and many couldn't make a career out of it.Fats Waller died at 38 when this movie came out and Ada Brown only made 3 movies and died young also.This movie has style and was filmed at one of the major studios.Money was laid out on costuming and those hats and zoot suits are memorable.To be an black actress back then you played maids mostly ,musicians,or worked in a uncredited role.Glad this showcases the artists that were around then..
