CLIP DESCRIPTION:
After a rough start, Susie Diamond (Michelle Pfeiffer) enlivens the Baker Boys' (Beau Bridges, Jeff Bridges) lounge act.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Real-life siblings Beau and Jeff Bridges star as the eponymous Fabulous Baker Boys. Musical prodigies both, the Bakers have long been teamed as a twin-piano act, with the less talented Frank (Beau Bridges) coasting on the skills of his brilliant younger brother, Jack (Jeff Bridges). Their career dwindling to nickel-and-dime dates in second-rate clubs, the Bakers decide that they need a female vocalist to boost their popularity. They select auditioner Susie Diamond (Michelle Pfeiffer), who in addition to being a gifted songstress is drop-dead gorgeous. The newly renovated Baker Boys act scores a success, which is inevitably threatened by Susie's growing popularity and by Jack's insistence upon pursuing an affair with the girl.

Gets to the ground, stands up like a pro, straightens her crown, sings like a queen! 👌🏼

[@DointimeonEarth]

For me.. The Best arrangement of this song! Michelle Pfeiffer's sings this with such passion & her voice gives me chills 🖤

[@MikeInPlano]

The Suzy Diamond songs in this movie are a testimony to the timelessness of good songs sung well.

Not that good. Honestly

Sumptuous, gorgeous, delicious. Michelle AND the movie. Yes, the "Makin' Whoopee" scene smolders, but Michelle singing "More Than You Know" so vulnerably is just breathtaking. Career made right at that moment.

Michelle Pfeiffer is one of the best actresses in Hollywood I like this movie

She really killed "peas, peas...try our peas". The end of the movie is whats great.

Thanks for this; love every song in the movie.

Pissed myself laughing the first time I saw this "What #$%%ing switch"

[@nigebrown2510]

This is one of my all time favourite movies and Michelle steals it bit why hasn't someone cut a full album with her. I even emailed Dave Grusin about it guess what? No answer!

[@TheColinChapman]

'ten cents a dance' was written in 1930. ten cents in 1930 are equivalent to two dollars today. two dollars for a dance with Michelle Pfeiffer is definitely worth it. : )

[@NormAppleton]

Two bucks for Michelle Pfieiffer, I doubt it.

[@deborahdor8909]

Awesome performer Mrs.Pfeiffer

[@bonglesnodkins329]

Should have won Best Actress that year. "Driving Miss Daisy" was one of those films that the Academy embraced, but it's largely been forgotten since.

[@deantailor357]

Ah, Michelle Pfeiffer, the last "movie star". They're all "actors" today.

[@IPhonola]

Michelle Pfeiffer’s rendition of ‘Ten Cents a Dance’ compares most favorably with Ruth Etting’s from 1930.

[@jjflix79]

[@kollerbrian]

Body in motion really tends to stay that way. Love your song Feelings, BAK

[@waltercancado653]

And look, Pfeiffer didn't need a stunt double to sing. A lot of talent from this girl.

[@MegaParkhurst]

one of the great modern films

[@loretoriquelme1634]

I love this movie

[@largol33t1]

I would love to hear her sing the Debbie Harry song "Send love through." It takes a voice like hers to make it shine. It's the song performed by the female lead in the animated US/Canadian film "Rock 'n' Rule."

[@DocDLH]

One of my all time favorite movies .. hard not to identify with the Jack character ... when feeling a bit disaffected and wishing to not be in the routine rat race.

[@HovaNirvana]

DocDLH I AM Jack the Jack character -not for much longer though.

[@elrond3737]

I think Jack is most Americans

[@jamesgough3938]

Jeff really communicates a huge amount in this scene.

[@lepetitchat123]

Excepcional, filme, música e atores.

[@admiralyisoonshin3360]

It's a Very funny scene, but I like it! Lovely scene!!!

[@13blackcatzzz]

Ok, so it's always bothered me that Frank starts singing the main part of the song, but you only hear Suzie's voice.

[@christopherlyons5900]

Point of order--might want to mention the songwriters. Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart. They did not write any of the songs for this movie (which I have seen like twenty times). They had to do a whole lot of editing to get it this right. Pfeiffer had a nice voice, but wasn't a really experienced singer. She was so delighted over how she sounded when she saw the rushes, she tried to perform live--it did not go well. Because Life is not a Movie. You don't have nearly so much backup. My favorite rendition is Anita O'Day's, on an album of Rodgers & Hart standards--the arrangement here is much better, but here's the thing--O'Day was a marathon dancer as a teenager, during the Depression. If there was a tougher job than being a taxi dancer, that was it. You just kept dancing until you dropped. She came close to winning a few times. Once she was so tired, in a state of delirium, she had a vision of Jesus, asking her what she wanted to do in life. She said "I want to be a singer. Make people happy." Jesus said "Then that's how it will be." Obviously if they do a biopic now, they should cast Jonathan Roumie, but that's not the point of anything. Ella Fitzgerald's version is the most complete. Another album of R&H standards. But Anita's is the most lived in--except maybe Ruth Etting's. The point here in the film is, Suzie was an escort--so she's singing about more than just bad dancers. She was relying on the cards, but she loves this song, which speaks to her, so she knows it by heart. Or really--by Hart. ;)

[@upncmnh11]

Best thing about this movie was Michelle Pfeiffer?

[@mcleanedwards7748]

You said it sister

[@serenityrobertson967]

UPLOAD THE WHOLE MOVIE IN 1080P.

[@kextrz]

Frank having something important to lose. Jack? Maybe just the same for the most part. He didn't really care that much at that point. Hence the death stare. Suzie? Nothing to lose at that point. Forgot about any possible humiliation. She goes all in.

[@punto1726]

Splendida

[@tinan2179]

Watch and listen to Doris Day in “Love Me or Leave Me” sing that song.

[@gertrudedierude7224]

I did watch and listen to Doris Day (and many of the predecessors), and prefer Michelle Pfeiffer’s performance, hands down.

[@lahaza6515]

The opening of this scene is a bit ridiculous, but it's a fun movie.
