Abstract
This chapter chronicles Bolger’s assignments as an employee of MGM. Of primary note is The Great Ziegfeld, the acclaimed Oscar-winning picture that earned Bolger a longer contract. Bolger’s next Broadway collaboration with Rodgers and Hart, On Your Toes, is explored. This was the first Broadway show to incorporate ballet and included “Slaughter on Tenth Avenue” choreographed by George Balanchine and introduced by Bolger. Bolger then returns to MGM to film the Nelson Eddy/Eleanor Powell movie Rosalie, and the Nelson Eddy/Jeanette MacDonald pictures Sweethearts and The Girl of the Golden West. Bolger’s assignment to, and the production of, The Wizard of Oz, figure prominently into the second half of the chapter.
本章记录了博尔格作为米高梅雇员的任务。最值得注意的是《伟大的齐格菲尔德》,这部广受好评的奥斯卡获奖影片为博尔格赢得了一份更长的合同。博尔格的下一个百老汇合作与罗杰斯和哈特,在你的脚趾,探索。这是百老汇首次加入芭蕾舞,其中包括乔治·巴兰钦(George Balanchine)编舞和博尔格(Bolger)介绍的“第十大道屠杀”(Slaughter on 10th Avenue)。随后,博尔格回到米高梅,拍摄纳尔逊·艾迪/埃莉诺·鲍威尔的电影《罗莎莉》,纳尔逊·艾迪/珍妮特·麦克唐纳的电影《甜心》和《黄金西部女孩》。博尔格在《绿野仙踪》中的任务和制作,在本章的后半部分占据了突出的位置。
