Footlight Glamour is a 1943 black-and-white film and the 14th of the 28 Blondie films. It is one of only two movies in the series that did not feature "Blondie" in the title (the other, It's a Great Life, was released earlier that year). It was the last film in the "Blondie" series for:
- Frank R. Strayer as producer/director, and
- Irving Bacon as the Bumsteads' hapless mailman, who would be replaced by Eddie Acuff.{{cite web|url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0035895/trivia|title=Footlight Glamour (1943)|access-date=12 February 2019|website=IMDb.com}}
