The movie Ziegfeld Follies?!


Question: In the 'Babbitt and Bromide' dance routine, with Kelly and Astaire, what does the term 'olive oil' mean? Gene Kelly uses it to say goodbye after Fred Astaire says 'ta-ta'. I'm guessing that this was a phrase from that time period.

It's supposed to be a silly way of saying "au revoir"
