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.

[@joanofarcxxi]

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]

Maureen O'Hara was one of the GREAT BEAUTIES of the screen and a VERY FINE ACTOR

[@smiley9872]

Such a beautiful woman.

[@angelabluebird609]

Absolutely!

[@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.

[@loisruthstrom8143]

I had never seen this Maureen O'Hara movie before. I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to see it! 👍😄♥️

[@EricLehner]

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.

[@MeMeDaVinci]

If only plane and train travel came equipped with a big band! My dad played trumpet; it would've been a gas!

[@LDis1]

Ah those were the days. Everyone in suit and tie and the greatest generation indeed.

[@camillekillam9949]

Yes, and how do you think they came to be the greatest generation? My Mom was born in 1924 and she told me that in public school at the beginning of each week the teacher would write a Bible verse on the blackboard and every student had to memorize it by the end of the week. Yes, sir, that's a great way to create a great generation. Folks in America have tried to kick God out of everything everywhere. Look around. We're paying dearly for that horrifically bad decision. May God have mercy on America and may He bring a great revival for the Christians and a great awakening for the unbelievers in America. Unless these two things happen and soon we can kiss America goodbye.

[@angelamalek]

Dick Haymes-what a voice!

Aussie here, My mum was born in 1920, so in the 1960s & 70s if there was in old movie on Saturday arvo on telly, we’d always watch them together. Dad took mum to the movies every Thursday night for years in the 40s and 50s, mums Aunt baby sat us. I remember all mum’s old 78 records being played often, Bing Crosby , Judy Garland Perry Como, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Benny Goodman etc etc when I was a child. Sorry, got carried away with happy memories of movies and music of the past, watching this terrific old movie.

[@MobiusMinded]

Maureen’s a class act, in her own realm.

Wonderful orchestra at the beginning!

[@shellyscott9613]

[@kathyh4804]

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!🌹

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

[@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.

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!🙄

[@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.

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.

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!!!

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. I dream of being back in the 40's and 50's, life was so much simpler and the music was so romantic🥰. Ahhhhhhh

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!

In addition to Maureen O'Hara, the 2 other heavyweights in this movie were Harry James the famous trumpeter and Dick Haymes, the velvet-toned baritone who women were mad for in the late 30s, and 40s. To have all 3 in a film is wonderous. (Haymes was Rita Hayworth's 4th husband).
