Frank Sinatra - Who Wants to be a Millionaire (Soundtrack High Society) High Quality

You can’t beat an old Hollywood musical. They had such class.

[@steinwaygrande3971]

Sad that they dont make shows like this anymore.This was true entertainment.

[@oldmancommonscents]

u must b a senior citizen. If they made films like this today, it would not do business. The film audience has changed. Today the singers of today have tatoos, body piercings, and b undressed that leaves nothing to the imagination. Oh yeah, they yell and scream .

[@olliemartinelli4034]

While it's understandable that musical tastes have changed, the only thing I lament is the lack of full orchestral scores in modern films. The emotions an orchestra gives u is just unparalleled, whether classical or the swooning magic of these Hollywood classics.

I grew up in a family who has a tendency to sing show tunes, so it was inevitable I should become a theatre kid. High Society, Singin' in the Rain, The Music Man, Oklahoma, Carousel, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Phantom of the Opera, Disney films. Nowadays I've branched out kinda more towards straight plays, Harvey and The Glass Menagerie being two of my favorites, but I still love listening to these songs.

One of the Great Character actresses ever Ms Celeste Holm

[@Bluejeans0701]

Celeste Holm passed away in July 2012. She was another legendary actress of Hollywood. And it was a real tragedy as she was one of the precious witnesses of the golden days in Hollywood back in the 40s and the 50s. Only yesterday did I learn abouth her death. She had a beautiful voice in singing along with Frank Sinatra. May God rest her in peace. She will remain amazing even after her death.

[@djmotise]

Right, a "real tragedy." She was 95! You call that a tragedy??? It was her time to go. We will all die one day. Stop fearing death as though it's something so bad. There is nothing tragic about the passing of a 95 year old who lived a long prosperous life.

[@VantaDraws]

Sinatra, Crosby and the gorgeous Kelly got all the plaudits but Celeste Holm was fantastic in this movie and especially in this scene.

[@sstavsky]

Really one of the best parts of the movie. Holm is particularly good. And she and Sinatra make an interesting combination.

[@lemorab1]

Celeste Holm was perfectly cast in "All About Eve." Here, I think she is miscast. There is zero chemistry between her and Sinatra. And the wardrobe people insisted on dressing her as matronly as possible, looking older than her 38 years. The interplay was much more believable between James Stewart and Ruth Hussey in "The Philadelphia Story."

[@pauldavis5093]

My mum took me to this movie when I was 7, and I loved it, I still do, pure quality

Still haven't seen a plausible explanation for the unknown gadget. It's not a crumb catcher, which would be a box with a hinged cover. The head with both ends rounded and a bird ornament also makes it unlikely that it's an ice hammer/corckscrew/jigger combo, although it does come apart like one. It may be something cooked up by the props department just to fit the action.

[@hollyhock9638]

I wish newer films were able to show the same amount of chemistry with their characters as they did in older films like this, I feel like newer films lean more on showing physical attraction but they fail at giving the same lovable depth to it. The relationships don't pull me in as much, I hope that makes sense.

[@eFMe-fk1xh]

Yes, it does make sense, it's not only about actors, but the quality of the writing: modern movies have more superficial writing, more standardized; so despite more things happening in the story, it often seems like they are nothing, they all seem less sincere, and therefore they feel less immersive. In classic movies the writing was usually so good that you could totally believe characters falling desperately in love after like just 10 lines of dialogue, while today, well, so many times a love story feel forced or "empty" even after an hour and half.

Grace Kelly played Tracy Lord in high school. Frank and Celeste have such chemistry PS: in the (1965) version of Cinderella Celeste is the Fairy godmother and there are many more old Hollywood stars that made small appearances like Ginger Rogers as the queen and Walter Pidgeon as the king.

[@Ampex196]

Thanks for posting! This sequence is imprinted on my memory: They don't normally place reel changes in the middle of a musical number but here they did. In the (not so) old days we screened 35mm prints properly ie: with changeovers between reels. The 'cue dots' (absent in this clip) may be legendary now, but were essential to the poor projectionist slaving away over his hot carbon arcs (screens were bigger then)!! Motor is around 1:38 and changeover at 1:46 (give or take a frame or two)!

[@mitsymagicful]

Fascinating stuff! I notice at 1:46 there's a break in singing when the reel changeover takes place, I guess that would allow for a margin of error for the projectionists.

[@Ampex196]

@@mitsymagicful Thanks Mitsy. You are correct! The acceptable margin of error is very small though. It needs to be rehearsed very carefully if you've not done it before.

[@esmeephillips5888]

Celeste Holm won a Best Supporting Actress Oscar in 1947, and gathered two more nominations soon after. But like Nanette Fabray she preferred the stage and made few films. It is sad that her private life was a mess and that she wound up in soap operas. She lived to be 95, her final years clouded by a crazily expensive lawsuit against her fifth husband, a gold-digging toyboy.

SHARED WITH JAMES TAYLOR THIS DAY (his dog's named "Ting") Ways to stay sane? (What rhymes with champagne?) What rhymes with 'hunkered down' and 'mitigating'? (two terms we've heard a thousand times each day) I ask, 'cause I am writing out a poem - a parody, to keep 'Covid' at bay.” It's just one way of 'keeping all your marbles' while keeping 'proper distance' from your friends - or strangers, when you must return to town; So what's another term for 'mitigation'? And what's another term for 'hunkered down?' You see where this is going. The trick is to make your parody timely. It's funnier than trying to find a rhyme for uranium - a buzz word from a 50's song (below). Plus . . . you're only as good as your latest work, right? A pug named Ting? (Jim & Kim Taylor's dog) What rhymes with that? I wondered this time yesterday. “A tug named Ping!” Which led, almost as easily as falling off a log - to recapitulating the first stanza of the funniest song on AMERICAN STANDARD. And as Mr. Taylor attested, to a world-wide audience on the BBC: “That is a “hard thing to do - write a funny song.” This as he introduced, to millions who'd never heard it, Stubby Kaye's original screen version of Sit Down, You're Rockin' the Boat. (So and thus) I dreamed last night, I was on a boat to heaven Surrounded by, some tugboats that could sing! I heard their voice, yet could not see their faces I knew not one . . . except a tug named Ping. Just to keep in shape, I turned on the computer intending to work with whatever is playing 'right this minute' on Siriusly Sinatra satellite radio: “Frank Sinatra - Who Wants to be a Millionaire?” I type fast and see possibilities here. You too? Who wants to be a millionaire? (I don't) Who wants uranium to spare? (I don't) HE: Who wants to journey on a gi-gantic yacht? SHE: Who wants a yacht? Oh how I do NOT!! SHE: Who wants a fancy foreign car? HE: I don't! SHE: Who wants to tire of caviar? (I don't) HE: Who wants a marble swimming pool too (I don't) TOGETHER: And I don't, 'cause all I want is you. “Come make breakfast,” says my better half. “Be there in a minute,” I lied. Celeste Holm. Isn't she lovely. Comment below video from a kindred spirit who was just waiting for AMERICAN STANDARD "two years ago" MYSTIC QUEEN2 I grew up in a family who has a tendency to sing show tunes, so it was inevitable I should become a theatre kid. High Society, Singin' in the Rain, The Music Man, Oklahoma, Carousel, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Phantom of the Opera, Disney films. [ ] I still love listening to these songs. Thanks for sharing this one, Phil.

In the song “Who wants to be a millionaire” (from the movie/musical “High Society”), I cannot possibly figure out the meaning of: Who wants a supersonic plane?
