Frances Langford won fame on radio (primarily as Bob Hope's vocalist, later sparring comically with Don Ameche as "The Bickersons"), via recordings and in the movies. In spite of the fact that she played mostly in minor musicals (plus appearing occasionally in "A" productions, including La glorieuse parade (1942), This Is the Army (1943) and Romance inachevée (1954)), she introduced major songs like "I'm in the Mood for Love" in Every Night at Eight (1935), "You are My Lucky Star" and "Broadway Rhythm" in Broadway Melody 1936: Naissance d'une étoile (1935), Cole Porter's "Easy to Love" in L'amiral mène la danse (1936) and "Hooray for Hollywood" in Hollywood Hotel (1937).
