‘Turn Back Time’ with Rita La Roy singing Gay Love in 1929

aa


This gentleman with the rather most outrageous hairstyle is in a rather déclassé nightclub inhabited by a mix of swanky dressed swells and rough looking sailors.  He is listening to Rita La Roy a  movie star of the early talking pictures, as she croons “Gay Love” to the crowd in the 1929 film “The Delightful Rogue”.  It seems like the very camp ‘Rogue’ played by Rod La Rocque (!) may not be the only who  reads more into Miss La Roy’s song, as early in this clip there are two sailors dancing together.
