Virginia Dawn (1941)

Titles read: “Now Pathetone presents Another Singer Wellknown [sic] On The Air VIRGINIA DAWN“. London, probably Pathe Studio. Various shots of Virginia Dawn singing a song that is probably called ’Six Lessons From Madame La Tonga’ - a sort of novelty number about learning the latest South American dances. Virginia wears a fashionable long evening gown and does lots of arm gestures and hip waggling. A man accompanies her on the grand piano; drums and percussion are heard, but not seen. A rather ’English’ performance with a Latin American tempo, but quite good fun! FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
