The film, directed and choreographed by Busby Berkeley, is considered a camp classic, and is noted for its use of musical numbers with fruit hats. Included among the 10 highest-grossing films of that year, it was at that time Fox's most expensive production.Musical highlights include Carmen Miranda performing an insinuating, witty version of \"You Discover You're in New York\" that lampoons fads, fashions, and wartime shortages of the time. The film is also memorable for Miranda's \"The Lady in the Tutti Frutti Hat\", which because of its sexual innuendo (dozens of scantily clad women handling very large bananas), prevented the film from being shown in Miranda's native Portugal in its initial release. Even in the US the censors dictated that the chorus girls must hold the bananas at the waist and not at the hip. Alice Faye sings \"A Journey to a Star,\" \"No Love, No Nothin',\" and the surreal finale \"The Polka-Dot Polka.\"The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Art Direction-Interior Decoration, Color (James Basevi, Joseph C. Wright, Thomas Little). It was the last musical Faye made as a Hollywood superstar. She was pregnant with her second daughter during filming. In 2014, The Gang's All Here was deemed \"culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant\" by the Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the National Film Registry."@en }
