SM was cute, talented, and one of the best dancers in the world.

Actually, Bob Fosse directed the movie and Gwen Verdon was on set as asst choreographer. She worked side by side with MacLaine during rehearsals and filming. The Verdon influence in both dance and singing is unmistakable.

Yep, that's why it bombed. It's the most famously miscast part until Lucille Ball in Mame.

I saw this movie when it first came out. Shirley was at the peak of her career. I especially remember her in Woman Times Seven and Gambit with Michael Caine. A bit later an A Mule for Sister Sarah with Clint Eastwood.

I believe that Shirley Maclaine started out as a "gypsy," ( dancer in the chorus) Hitchcock supposedly discovered her and cast her in his film "That's the Trouble with Harry". A quirky little movie with no music and no dancing.

Between Fosse and Gwen Verdon working on this project, the only flaw here is that Verdon herself wasn’t starring instead of Shirley McClaine

Yours is the only comment that is plugged in. This film bombed because nobody wanted to see Shirley limp through the role Gwen Vernon originated on Broadway. She was a train crash that the editing made worse.
@quiltmomma5157Ай бұрын
She's Gwen Verdon's clone down to the red hair. Not discounting her talent but that should have been Gwen's role.
@mrpoolplayer6379Ай бұрын
First time to see her, she's very good , too... Gwen's a close CLONE to Shirley, but Shirley is a "One of a Kind"...

GWEN had that perfect edge that SM does not seem to have.... so much depth in Gwen Verdon. Not seemingly so with Ms Shirley.

After seeing Gwen Verdon do this on Ed Sullivan I can understand why the film bombed. Shirley is good, but Verdon is electric. Even Debbie Allen, Ann Reinking and Donna McKechnie danced it better in the rival than Shirley here. Shirley is best in I’m a brass band.

@annoldham3018Ай бұрын
Real fur was popular until the late 70s. I remember a warehouse when I was little that sold racks of them and women would go crazy for them. It was a status symbol to have one. I could never get my head round it.😢

These clips have only convinced me that watching Sweet Charity would be so much cringe that I might jab bamboo skewers through my eardrums, and that saddens me since I usually really enjoy Bob Fosse movies.
