My Mom got me hooked on 1940’s movies so much class and none of the trash Hollywood turns out now.

[@michdoug1]

Mine too, I used to come home from school and we’d watch the Early Show together.

Life is so strange. To think that all these amazingly talented, beautiful, glamorous, stylish, famous people are all gone from this world... I can't wrap my mind around it. Such a wonderful movie, I had never heard of it, and besides the leading actress, I had never heard of any of the other artists. The music was delightful. I watched it twice, to take in all the amazing nuances. It's a gem. I am learning to love all things vintage. I so appreciate how innovative and creative people were back then, and such quality and effort were put into everything. into every small detail. What an amazing time that must have been, right after WW2. There was so much hope and idealism. Thank you for uploading this relic of sight, sound, and soul.

[@patchristian7393]

I thought the same thing - all those wonderfully talented artists/actors/actresses all gone from this world...but forever immortalized in films like this one!

[@kaybutcher5719]

Agree! Brings back memories of my mother and dad. My earliest memories are of my beautiful mother with her hair styled just like Maureen O’Hara’s. Enjoyed this movie so very much.

[@ann-marie8035]

❤ Dad loved this movie. He's dead 14 months. I miss him.

[@user-ec3nk6rp4j]

Exactly, shockingly they weren't only beautiful but very smart and spoke so well compared to the actors today. Sad they're all gone😢 but not forgotten. Another thing is these attractive actresses had natural beauty-no botox and no capped teeth.

America at its finest. So much to be proud of in these early films, as a gift to the world - and to America's culture too. What a good influence films were in this era.

Why is it that I have NEVER been on a date and the man I am with starts singing, and a full unseen orchestra appears out of nowhere???!!! Great movie! Thank you for sharing! I own almost all Maureen O’Haras movies, but not this one She was so stunningly beautiful and classy! They sure don’t make actresses like her today sadly!🌹

[@nonyabusiness4151]

It does happen, but the occasion is rare. Perfection is basicly the prerequisite.

There was so much dialogue between ppl in those times beacause they didnt have cellular phones. Nowadays ppl cannot start a conversation.

[@shorty7363]

On the subject of cell phones, I hate when there is texting in movies! I have to pause, put on my reading glasses, and read the messages one by one. It's very annoying. I don't watch a movie to read. I watch it to WATCH it!🙄

[@josephinewhite6224]

I grew up on musicals. This one was wonderful, and I had never seen it before. Thank you for showing it free and in color! Maureen should always be shown in color😊

[@rebeccabeaton9237]

Love this movie! I have loved Maureen O'Hara since watching the original Parent Trap and The Quiet Man. She never disappoints. Harry James was popular in my Mother's time but I came to enjoy his talent when watching vintage movies with Mum. True glamour was a part of that world.

[@jennypalmer331]

Another great movie that shows how movies can be made but no longer are. Thank you

[@VeraLowdermilk-kj8sn]

I wonder how many other terrific old movies I have never seen? Although I’ve been a movie buff for years , I’m so often lately delighted to discover one gem after another- like this one, which I’d never seen before! Thank you for a wonderful movie!

At 53:00 those two female dancers did cartwheels without hands touching the ground!!!! Dick Haymes's voice is pure honey and the looks to match.

[@WhirledPublishing]

It's called a side aerial ... when it's backward, it's called a back aerial ... there's a few different versions of the back aerial ... including the back aerial twist - also known as the back corkscrew - and then there's the forward aerial which can be a punch front with a solid landing or a front aerial walk-out.

[@leelarson107]

That's at 55:10, not 53:00. If you look carefully, the dancers do almost impossible maneuvers and make it look easy. If I tried that, I'd need surgery.

[@gplunk]

"Could you just drop me off at 1946 42nd St.?? And don't bother leaving the motor running...."

[@samjames6030]

One very lovely enjoyable film, they don't make them like that anymore. The actors might have passed on, but the film still brightens up the screen to this day. You sure get lost in the film, it was spell bounding and kept you engrossed in the unfolding story line. The trumpet playing and the band were outstanding. You were mesmerized by the songs the singer sung, he sang them so smoothly, it took your breath away. The men were smartly dressed then, which was an added bonus to see a forgotten trend in life today. Maureen O'Hare nicknamed Kitten in the film wore cloths so elegant and stylish they were to die for, what a pity fashion and elegance is not about like that anymore. Everything about the movie was likeable you could watch it again for the entertainment value. It was light hearted and enjoyable the whole way through.

That vanity dressing table in the new hoyel suite she just walked into was a knock out blast from the past!! I had a play one as a kid, n my Grandmother had two, ine in her bedroom downstairs n one in her bedroom upstairs, where my sister Linda n I used to sleep every summer for two weeks as a vacation when we were kids. It was a hundred year old house that was chock full of antiques in the country in Michigan, n I would STILL, to this day, love to have another vanity to do my makeup n hair at and keep my supplies on instead of a counter in the bathroom and a cabinet or closet.!!! LOVE the music 🎶 in this movie, always a Harry James fan!!! My Father, RIP, educated me by playing Big Band Music all the time when I was growing up, so I became an aficionado of the style n a singer when I turned 16. WONDERFUL presentation on a December weekend that is t exactly exciting, until I found this!!! Thank you for posting!!!

[@user-kn4yl4ey6f]

What a great movie, fun story to watch! Thanks for posting! Maureen O'Hara has the same beauty and allure as Rita Hayworth. I had no idea of this movie existing until seeing your post. What makes this film interesting is the Technicolor, the fashion that is so 1940s and glamorous, the set designs, the great acting, dance, music of Harry James, a good script. Some parts are so sugary but that is what makes the Golden Age of Hollywood so "sweet"! Just subscribed - keep posting more hidden gems!

I loved it!!! Such a heart warming film. I love the oldies ....the colour, the styles when women looked liked women and men like men. Such class and elegance. Maureen O'Hara was beautiful and Dick Hames such a great singer (what a mellow voice) both were great actors. Thank you for posting this lovely film.

Loved the movie & L all the actors. Went to the movies once a week since the age of 6.my favPorit types of music is Big Bands & all singers from the 1940's on. Musicals were the favorite for the majority of movie goers. Tbey just don't make movies like the use to. Stopped goung to movies 2009. Now prefer watching old movies from the 1930's on TV.. on 😮

Loved this movie. Watched it on Valentine's Day. Great actors, music, dancing and fashion. Lovely romantic movie. Take me back to that time, I was born in the wrong era. All we see now are near naked female bodies in the media. It's all about sex and violence in movies nowadays.

[@jillgilson3900]

I much prefer movies from the start of the last century up to about year 2000. Thes days the films are trash, no class, too much blood and violence when it's not necessary to show it all the time, the movies prove that it can be insinuated, and not shown. I love to see Maureen O'Hara in colour asshe was such a beautiful red head, which you miss out on when it's a black and white film , but live them all the same. At present I'm really enjoying William Powell. But musicals I adore as well as historical/biblical films too. Guarantee worth watching in my book. Now I have a great film to watch and a nice cup of tea, What do they CAMERA...ACTION!!!

Maureen O'Hara could wear the most unusual colour combinations that would look vile on anyone else. For instance that odd green dressing gown, can't even describe the shade but she looks gorgeous. Dick Haymes married Rita Hayworth; her no.4. Didn't know that till now. Took her to the cleaners apparently.
