Reception

[edit]

Like many American films of the time, Here Come the Girls was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. For example, the Chicago Board of Censors cut all but one scene of the young women behind the curtain showing bare shoulders and legs and four scenes of the women's skirts being pulled up by ribbon exposing legs.[2]
