## Resource

If you're looking for a film full of a stellar cast, great acting, and amazing musical numbers to watch for Easter, check out Easter Parade! This episode examines the problems that could have shelved the movie, but instead, all of them lined up to make something truly iconic. It also delves into the history of the Easter Parade in New York that inspired the title song to fully give context about the backdrop of the film. From injuries to personal drama, the production of Easter Parade was far from easy.
