''Ali Baba Goes to Town'' is a 1937 film starring Eddie Cantor, Tony Martin, and Roland Young. Cantor plays a hobo named Aloysius "Al" Babson, who walks into the camp of a movie company that is making the ''Arabian Nights''. He falls asleep and dreams he is in Baghdad as an advisor to the Sultan (Young). He organizes work programs, taxes the rich, and abolishes the army, in a spoof of Roosevelt's New Deal. The cast also includes Gypsy Rose Lee, using the stage name of Louise Hovick, as the Sultana. The Raymond Scott Quintette also appears, performing "Twilight In Turkey." A clip from ''Ali Baba Goes to Town'' is shown in the movie ''The Day of the Locust'' (1975), in which Karen Black plays an aspiring actress in 1930s Hollywood. A brief shot of Black is edited into the ''Ali Baba'' footage to create the impression that her character played a bit role in that film. ==Cast== *Eddie Cantor ...
