Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Gold Diggers of 1933 is a 1933 pre-Code Warner Bros. musical film directed by Mervyn LeRoy with songs by Harry Warren and Al Dubin, staged and choreographed by Busby Berkeley. It starred Joan Blondell, Ruby Keeler, Dick Powell, Ginger Rogers, and Billy Barty in his first role (as a horny man-baby.)The "gold diggers" are four aspiring actresses: Polly, Carol, Trixie, and Fay. The movie follows the efforts of the actresses to survive in the Depression-era city. Their misadventures make up the bulk of the film, and the rest of the film is filled with musical numbers lavishly choreographed by Busby Berkeley.The movie is nominally a sequel to a film (now lost) called The Gold Diggers of Broadway, which was based off of a Broadway play from 1919 called The Gold Diggers. (Gold Diggers of 1933 is actually more like a Spiritual Successor to 42nd Street.) Three movie sequels (Gold Diggers of 1935, Gold Diggers of 1937, and Gold Diggers in Paris) were also produced, featuring some of the same actors playing different characters.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Action Prologue | |
| Gold Diggers of 1933 / int_77414bc2 | comment |
Action Prologue: The musical equivalent thereof, anyway, as the film opens with a tight closeup of Ginger Rogers, who bursts into song with "We're in the Money", kicking off a Busby Berkeley Number. | |

Bare Your Midriff: As the cops crack down on the show in the beginning, one of the "We're In The Money" girls has the big "coin" on her front snatched away—resulting in a clearly pre-Code shot of her belly button! | |

Bowdlerization | |
| Gold Diggers of 1933 / int_a49914aa | comment |
Bowdlerization: The studio created alternate versions of the film that could be distributed in more conservative parts of the country. These alternate versions toned down the scantiness of the dancers' clothing, and one version even had an alternate ending. | |

Busby Berkeley Number | |
| Gold Diggers of 1933 / int_ba32d232 | comment |
Busby Berkeley Number: Four, in fact, from the man himself. As usual, they're far more elaborate than anything you might see in a real stage show. | |
