Julie Andrews is a gift to the world

[@theastewart6721]

She sure is! God had A special plan for her life. Beautiful voice and next, author. With her daughter, Emma Walton. What could be better than that for her second act? I am so blessed to have grown up when she was at her peak, although, I’m not sure she’s reached it yet! Love you Julie! Fighting cancer in our family so these words are heartfelt. Please don’t diminish them. Thank you.

It was fairly recently I learned that the line was "It's stylish to raise your skirt and bob your hair" and NOT "... raise your skirt above your hair"! Always wondered how Julie could deliver a line like that...

Saw this when it first came out in the theatres (1967). Loved it ever since. I have it on video cassette and still watch it once in a while. Also saw the Broadway version which was spectacular. Had my picture taken with Harriet Harris who played Mrs. Meers in the show.

[@LeslieFitzpatrick-j6j]

I saw this movie 6 times in the theater, often sitting thru 2 shows on a Sat afternoon. No video cassettes then. I loved everything about it. Jimmy (James Fox, also British) was adorable. That was my record until Star Wars - A New Hope- 8 times!

[@eddiemaxwell6949]

I love this opening sequence. It sets the tone for the rest of the film. It's a pity that the other songs in it aren't as good as this. The film, I think, is underrated. It's an enjoyable spoof of silent movies and has an excellent cast. But it belongs to Julie Andrews. She is in almost every scene and carries it wonderfully.

[@azillliasmith2734]

Don't think it's ever been underrated it was always massively admired and it was a big hit at the time you've probably just noticed it recently because you are young or something

How I remember with fondness our TMM parties, where we'd get together, share our favorite takeout foods, and watch this glorious film together. Amazingly, George Roy Hill also directed Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid after this as well as Slaughterhouse Five never mind The Secret World of Henry Orient before it. He's one of cinema's unsung geniuses.

[@tonyphilpott9500]

I think Julie Andrews was the funniest I have seen her in this movie. Unfortunately most other movies she was in at this time wanted her to classy and sweet. I love when she decides to be unspeakably fatal. The mugging and the looks she gives the camera are laugh out loud funny. This movie would be a classic if the studio had allowed the director to cut it as he wanted. They wanted a "Roadshow" movie so its to long and drags in places.

It messes with my brain that the thoroughly modern 1920s are a century ago. I can remember people still having furniture in their houses from that time. Not as antiques, just as ordinary, nothing special, furniture for every day use.

[@jaygatz4335]

One of my favourite movie openings. However, I don't think elevators in the '20's had push buttons - they had elevator operators.

[@fuzzylon]

Yes, I thought that too, but then I wandered over to Wikipedia and found this: Automatic elevators began to appear as early as the 1920s,[citation needed] their development being hastened by striking elevator operators which brought large cities dependent on skyscrapers (and therefore their elevators) such as New York and Chicago to their knees. Self service elevators were not allowed in New York City until 1922. Prior to this, non-luxury buildings that could not afford an attendant were built as five-story walk ups. These electromechanical systems used relay logic circuits of increasing complexity to control the speed, position and door operation of an elevator or bank of elevators. So, in 1922 self service elevators became a thing ! I imagine they weren't cheap so whether it is realistic to have a self-service elevator in that building is another question, of course.

[@jaygatz4335]

@@fuzzylon Thanks for that detailed account - who knew? Of course, the buttons allowed for the comic scene to unfold as it did. I thought it was brilliantly conceived - and Bea Lillie's expression was priceless!

[@fuzzylon]

@@jaygatz4335 Absolutely! It's a recurring theme throughtout the film. It would not have worked if there had been a lift operator.

Dresses would still fall below the knee line in 1922.

For ordinary women (not social climbers or members if the "in-crowd") hemlines wouldn't significantly rise until fabric rationing in the Second World War. Even then, exposed knees were seen as risqué.

[@beth12svist]

​​@@frankieb43 It definitely has. "It's 1922" but they are dressed more like 1925 or even 1926 (that was when what we think of as the 1920s look actually came fully into play; skirts actually weren't _quite_ so short and waists quite so low earlier).

[@hebneh]

Nearly everything in this opening sequence is black, white, gray or maybe brown. There are a few green accents including Millie's beads, and at one point there's a green blouse on one extra and I think a green bow on a woman nearby. And there's the Yellow Taxi at the very end. Otherwise it's monochrome. I was surprised that when Millie changed into modern 1920s clothes she wasn't dressed in something really bright, as a counterpoint to everything else.

[@radamik]

You might think Calvin Klein was involved! He always liked plain neutral colors and while that’s easy on the eyes after a while it becomes (like so many things) a tired cliche. The art deco period in the twenties often had rich jewel like colors in interior design and it must have overlapped into fashion. Photography was always black and white at the time but drawings and advertisements showed plenty of color. But color in fashion can also be cliched - in the 1957 movie “Funny Face” the magazine editor, after insisting that pink is the newest color, is asked why she is not wearing pink: she says “I wouldn’t be caught dead!”’

[@hebneh]

@@radamik Yes, the '20s got extremely colorful, including such diverse and unexpected things as bathroom fixtures and even cameras.

Movies like this contributed greatly to the erroneous belief that all skirts in the 20s were short and the look complemented most women. Actually the short “flapper” look was only the last few years of the decade and per photos on Google images many older women never wore them really short. One major incentive for short skirts was being able to do the Charleston; when the skirts got longer and tighter in the 1930s the Charleston was out of style!
