I've been paging through Anthony Balducci's book on Hamilton via Google Books trying to remember what size of role Hamilton played in this film. Google Books like to show a page or so of the section one is interested in and then cuts you off (It's almost as if they expect me to buy it....). I do recall Richard Barrio's book on early talkie musicals spent a chapter on this film but I haven't re-read that in some time.
So was Ham brought aboard as comedy relief for this feature or was it more of a walk-on role?
Also, I realize that Balducci's book has been out for some time but any comments here on his research?
