Yes, in THE STOLEN JOOLS (1931).

No, the opposite. These people have been very clever.

Yes, in HOLLYWOOD PARTY (1934).
Actually, Mr. Butterworth made this dubious assertion in The Stolen Jools (1931), although IMDb tells us that he claims to be Louise Fra-zenda in that film. He may have said it again in Hollywood Party, but my recollection of the latter is sort of blurry, like a bad dream after eating too much guacamole.

Exactly my response to Louise in Loose Ankles; rather severe gastritis, actually.

Actually I though Rich was deliberately joshing when he wrote HOLLYWOOD PARTY instead of the correct film, THE STOLEN JOOLS (in keeping with the theme of this thread).
