The pressure on everybody to produce the first all-sound motion picture was tremendous. All the big studios were engaged in this race. We worked 12 to 18 hours a day with only Sunday mornings off to catch up on sleep. For The Broadway Melody we had these huge stage settings. The bigger the set the more trouble it meant for us "sound wise". It would become a maelstrom of activity where every squeak was enlarged to a bellow.
