Hullabaloo (film)

"Hullabaloo" is a 1940 musical comedy film directed by Edwin L. Marin and written by Nat Perrin. It stars Frank Morgan, Virginia Grey, Dan Dailey, Billie Burke, Donald Meek, Reginald Owen and Connie Gilchrist. Jack Albertson, Leo Gorcey and Arthur O'Connell appear in bit roles.

Morgan is the star of the film, as a fading actor who is trying to revive his career by starring on a radio program. When his most recent broadcast, a science fiction invasion from Mars story, panics the nation, he is fired. He decides to jumpstart his career by creating a new show which features his talented children.

A highlight of the film is Morgan's reenactment of the current MGM hit film "Boom Town", with Morgan's character, Frank Merriweather, supposedly imitating the voices of the stars of that film. In fact, the "Boom Town" stars' voices were dubbed over Morgan's. The voices of Clark Gable, Claudette Colbert, Spencer Tracy, and Hedy Lamarr are used.
