I was born in Paris in 1951 of American parents. Maurice Chevalier was always and still is my idea of a true French gentleman!!! How I miss men like this.

[@Kathy-cw9vt]

Never be another maurice! Lucky to see him on film. Wonderful guy.

I love the way KZbin has brought these greats back to life, and now they will truly live on forever.

[@sharonspeer418]

Impossible not to fall in love with them. Where are these types of entertainers NOW? We need 'em!

[@JohnSilverfan01]

[@pizzaital0611]

? Your father's Mother's Brother ?

[@stephrshupe]

Wow, I have no idea who you are but Charles(his only sibling who had children) is my Great Grandfather. And I know all of my relatives.

I love Maurice and Bing! I am very happy to find this video of the both together!

[@crissarobin]

Bravo, again and again.....BRAVO ! Thank you so very much.

[@RBBailey1]

This is so charming! Such an intriguing concept for a bit. Working in Chavalier's songs so well. They act so naturally, they couldn't have had much time to work it up - lots of orchestration with all those modulations. Love it! Smart entertainment! .

[@joesampson7724]

Brilliant!

[@BigBingFan]

Simply Fantastic---the best of the best! Class all throughout every fiber of their performance. Truly great!

[@johnrussell6602]

Two greats team up

[@natureman494]

Two of my favorite singers of all time together this is amazing

[@rejeanguay6336]

What a pleasure to watch them both,these two greats of different country but loved by all.

[@electrictroy2010]

@rejeanguay6336 Cheavalier came to Hollywood in 1930s/40s where he achieved his greatest success. No doubt Bing knew him back then .

[@mylesgarcia4625]

Wonderful!! Tres beau!! They don't make 'em like that anymore.

[@mickaelprevost273]

Allegedly Chevalier could speak fluent unaccented english, but the accent was part of his schtik.

[@JohnSilverfan01]

I heard about that. He always spoke English with his accent because everyone loved his accent.

[@shyannedianne1962]

I have the LIFE magazine from the same month and year this was filmed. The cover photo has Chevalier and Crosby sitting next to each other with Chevalier's head resting on Bing's right shoulder. The cover reads "Chevalier and Crosby: Two Old Pros in TV Songfest. MARCH 10, 1961. 20 CENTS." I wish I could share a picture of it!

[@chucku00]

Now I know where August Darnell had the idea for the little book when he performed "I'm a wonderful thing, baby" with Coati Mundi on stage... and the canotier hat of course!

What book were they talking about in the beginning? Maurice's book

[@yubbadubbadubba]

One of his autobiographies called "With Love".

[@darkangelzephyron]

Sounds exactly like Lumiere from the beauty and the beast. Lol

[@theobertrand3704]

The singer who did its voice (both in english and french) was in fact told to imitate Maurice Chevalier voice ! Regards.

[@ssddsquare]

Imagine this song is new in 2020.lol

Thank God, they don´t sing with Julio Iglesias. That pal´s got, not a little black book, but an encyclopedia.
