Beautiful Clothes (1942) 

** 1/2 (out of 4) 

Harry Langdon sings the title song in this short, which I read was made for video jukeboxes. I guess these were mainly featured in bars and other type places but it's the first film like it I've ever seen. Langdon sings throughout the short running time and even appears in drag. This film also features what has to be the dumbest model in history. At one point the camera goes on her and she's suppose to just smile but before doing so she looks left and right, apparently looking for the director, and then smiles before looking around for him again.
