Bette Midler On A More Likely Project To Enter After The Rose: “A musical comedy in the old MGM style. It’s what I really want to do. I really want to do an technicolor musical comedy…a great, big, old fashioned musical comedy. The kind they don’t seem to know how to make anymore. I see them on TV and I go to the theaters that still show them. They drive me mad…they’re so full of light, sound, and color and people acting happy.” (Advocate, November 10, 1977)
