Classic Romantic Movie in Technicolor I Moon Over Miami (1941) I Retrospective

[@rogermaes6001]

They knew how to make entertainements in those days ! I remember my father who said : "When we went out of the theater, your mother and I, we were full of joy, and hope for all the week." Nowadays, if we go to the cinema, we go out desperated or frightened. Thanks for sharing this little gem ; just too bad that Betty Grable had not a real singing and dancing partner, but she is lovely and she makes the show, and so does the unique Charlotte Greenwood.

There are good movies these days, but you have to look for them. I saw "IF" a few days ago, and it's very good. Same for "Journey to Bethlehem", "Sonic the Hedgehog" and so on. Most movies today are either really violent, trashy, and foul-mouthed. But there are exceptions.

'Renaissance' artists aimed to uplift the viewer and draw them into beauty, they were primarily interested in their subjects. Modern artists aim to shock and confuse, they are primarily interested in themselves' - - I think the change started in the 60s/70s.

The fashion! So beautiful. So feminine. One of the reasons I love Classic movies 👗

[@karadanvers6136]

i love them for the dialogue. theyre so witty :)

So immodest!

[@belkyhernandez8281]

Me too! Also the music and dialogue.

[@shorty7363]

@@joyceobeys6818 I agree that they are immodest, but compared to what women are wearing today they are very modest! Women have no shame anymore. They don't care who sees what and hope they do at that!👎

People spoke with a certain degree of respect and grace in the classic movies. Now a dog has better manners than a person does.

[@lechat8533]

@Randy Moore It`s a movie! Showing privileged well-mannered people. In real life, ordinary people did have better manners than nowadays but not like this. The problem nowadays is that even well-educated people have no manners at all.

[@janinecox256]

Touché

[@kathyh3120]

So true! Even the poor and street people had done resemblance of manners! Our world is truly going to hell

[@holymolar]

It was a good run, now everything is neomarxism, moral decay and corrupt.

[@williamtell8253]

For decades I only knew the tune, but since many years I also watch this excellent retro movie. How beautiful was old Miami!

[@sweetpapillon7265]

One of my favorite classic films Ooh, Don Ameche. Plus you have Jack Haley a.k.a. The Cowardly Lion and the gorgeous Betty Grable. Then, there is the glamorous background of Old Florida. Perfection. Thanks to whoever uploaded this gem.

[@bigd4746]

Jack Haley was the tin man though 😊

[@lynninthewild1977]

You forgot Charlotte Greenwood, she holds it all together . Great cast.

[@donnarouse5366]

My momma was born in the same hospital as Don ameche on the same day but several years apart. Back in kenosha wisc!

He was the tin man, not the lion 😉

that's betty grable? no wonder she was a star! she is so cute and talented! :) i jumped to the middle of the movie, to see if it was any good :) now im playing from beginning bc i had to find out who the actress was :) nice! my first betty grable picture :)

I've just finished sewing TWO 50s style dresses for myself and they're absolutely gorgeous (although I do say so myself)

[@LilacDaisy2]

NO WAY!!!!!! YOU GOT MOON OVER MIAMI!!!! I found it as a video shop 20 years ago and hired it all the time, I loved it so much. Then it was NOWHERE to be found. How did you do this magic!!! Thank you :D

[@shorty7363]

I'd hate to have that job they had at the beginning! Of course I'd be stuck back in the kitchen because I can't sing a note!😂 That bird was Jimmy the Crow. He was in The Wizard of Oz (along with Jack Haley), It's a Wonderful Life, as well as many other movies! This was a great movie. Thanks for the upload.💜

[@myrabraxton4289]

Yes, Betty Grable, with her million dollar legs! Don Ameche, with his signature wit, and versatile acting style that carry his career to the 1980's hit comedy Trading Places! Also, a stellar supporting cast! "O Me, Oh Miami!" You cannot watch a more joy filled musical than Moon Over Miami!

[@dpf5939]

Betty Grable is my favorite movie blond. One the first movies of hers I ever saw and one of my favorites.

[@jacquelinejanz5792]

Were her legs insured for a million dollars?

[@minoosethna4615]

Is it any wonder that the US forces were crazy over her? Who can forget "animal" in Stalag 17? Haha

Love it! Technicolor, Don Ameche, Betty Grable, Jack Haley, Charlotte Greenwood, Hermes Pan, Robin and Rainger. What's not to love?

[@clararizzi8051]

Thank you for bringing such terrific joyous movies. They fulfill the fantasies of the good old days. It is so much better to dream happiness rather than darkness. Being alone can take you into the darkness, This movies make you laugh,cry of joy and simply they bring back good memories of our own personal life, things that we did and said. Thank you.

Do the math. They inherited $55,000. Minus Fed Tax 12% ($6,600), 6% State Tax ($3,300), 3% Probate Tax ($1,650), $2,500 Administrative fees, and $4,800 Lawyers - - totals deductions of $18,850 - - leaving a balance of $36, 150. Why did they get only $4,287.86 ??

[@roberthenderson4466]

[@zofifi7549]

Maybe whoever was tasked with writing this paper, stole the money and fumbled the numbers, them hoping they wont do the math themselves. And they didn't.

Oh! for a bit of glamour in today's films.

[@susancooper8712]

I've never seen or heard of this before but it was very enjoyable. Loved the storyline and the stars playing the parts. Great to have it in colour the only thing that let it down was the inserted advertising which even cut song numbers in half; this spoilt the whole film! Very badly timed and I'm sure others would agree. When you want entertainment the musical numbers shouldn't be cut up like this it's very disappointing. It needed some respect on when to make advert breaks.
