I watched this film with my dad back in 1959 or maybe 1960. It was on TV and we watched it in our living room. I was nine years old and I loved it. Mom and dad loved the music. Dad made the comment that Tuesday Weld looked like an older version of me, which instantly made me a huge fan of hers, although I could never dream of being that pretty. I have searched and searched for this movie but I wish I could watch the whole thing on TH-cam! Watching this scene has given me another reason to like it. My given name is Barbara just like Barbara Bel Geddes, and then they nick-named me Bobbie after my father. I guess I need to buy the movie!
I love this film. I saw it as a young girl and found it as an older lady. They don’t make movies like this any longer. Too bad, as they taught virtues and showed heartache, despair and overcoming both.
Wow- Haven't seen this beautiful film in years. Amazing how in just clicking on the video , I could feel my eyes start to water ! If you haven't seen this classic film, please set aside an evening folks and watch this fantastic film about a good man.
I saw this movie when it came out and was entranced by Red Nichols hitting that high C. This rendition of Battle Hymn of the Republic has led to my eight decades of life as a fan of Dixieland music. Fabulous.
Red Nichols had a club on Madison Avenue just east of Austin Boulevard, my mother was a singer before she married. She knew Red and he was always asking her to sing at the club. My parents and I would go into the club some night after going to dinner and a movie for a night cap. Loved his music.
Fantastic that your mom sang with Red Nichols. My grandfather owned several restaurant/nightclubs in Cleveland that Red Nichols performed at (Golden Pheasant Restaurant) during the late 1920s-early 1930s
this film inspiered my dad to get my arm to move i too had polio but i also had meningitous at four years old i move my arm by a muscle im my neck no deltoid muscle at al in right arm they say yorkshireman have grit well i have that because now i am a diabetic so who cares am alive and kicking still raised a family too almost single handed wife died of heartattack
Thank you so much for sharing such an enthologic master-piece that elevates us to a certain awareness... Childhood is our major subject, and our own children have to receive all the care, all the deep attention and love we can; Then, sometimes much more than we can, but do not worry, whatever you defend and protect, the courage and best attitude will be given to those in the will to well serve childhood... It Is only a willigness, more thant a hope, an esential Love. Against any Harm or any destructive circumstance... Childhood needs you, parents, because no one else will protect yours.
I still can remember sitting on the floor down in the basement of my grandma and grandpa's house and grandpa had put the movie on!! He had also popped up a huge batch of popcorn!! This movies was one that really stuck in my head but especially in my heart.. Great Movie indeed!! Great Story too!
I used to work at a video rental store and I would put this in to play and people would hear the battle hymn number in the speakeasy and stop what they were doing and listen to the entire song and then come and ask me what it was. My only complaint was that I only had one copy and it would always get rented early in the day. haha
Thank you for sharing. As an 13 year old I played the wonderful LP many times and had memorized all of the songs although never having seen the movie. In those days 1971-74 this was still a very popular record in many parts of the world. We were then an English family in Argentina.
This is One of the true essential classics of Jazz movies. Danny Kaye is excellent as Red. But Danny Kaye also starred in another classic jazz movie. "A song is born" There were also other great classic jazz movies that never received the proper consideration or attention These movies are Kirk Douglas "a man with a horn" and Sammy Davis Jr in a "Man called Adam"
The girl ruined it for me. Watching just Danny and Louis, you can feel the mutual respect and absolute love for one another just through body language, the way they treat each other and move about one another, and the words and way they express their music together. But that girl kissing everyone she greeted BUT Louis, just screams racism to me, and I can't hear her voice without seeing that now. I'm just going to skip all parts with her in them.
@@kwebster62 You're right, but the year doesn't change the way it makes me feel. It's not like I'm upset to the point it keeps me up at night xD But I just don't think she was a good person is all. While even though it was 1959 you can see that white guy perfectly fine with black people, it just doesn't seem that she is.
@@eldenvedetta635 I doubt it was the actress, but may have been due to the "Hays Code" in place from the early 30s to the late 60s. It would have been an innocent peck on the cheek, but perhaps the director and/or producers just didn't want to 'go there.'
@@kwebster62 I highly doubt that considering it was fine for Louis to hug and touch him, it seems she personally didn't want to. We can both speculate but I personally see it as her choosing not to. It's what it feels like.
Love these movie. Today's kids miss out seeing it.😢

The film was released in 1959. Seems unlikely it was on TV by 1960, but it's possible.
I don't usually get teary-eyed over any movie, but every time I see this movie I do. This is definitely one of my favorite movies of all time!!!!!!
I love this film. I saw it as a young girl and found it as an older lady. They don’t make movies like this any longer. Too bad, as they taught virtues and showed heartache, despair and overcoming both.
My favorite movie of all times. I use to sing the "The Five Pennies" to my kids. Funny, they still remember the movie and songs.
This is one of my favorite danny kaye movies, the story is so touching.
One of the best films ever. Love it so much. Stellar performances by the entire cast
Love old movies I used to watch at night under my blanket on a b/w TV
Brings back wonderful memories of a fabulous movie. I still have original lps of Red Nichols
One of the Greatest Movies I have EVER had the Joy to watch. What a truly amazing Story.
THE BEST FILM EVER!
Yes!! Octubre 2020

this is probably one of the first movies I saw as a very young girl.... memories.. beautiful memories.

This gets me teary.I cried to this movie when i saw it at like 8 years old and loved it all these years.
As the father of 5 daughters I totally can relate. Touches my heart each time I see it.
I am so grateful for these PRICELESS memories and movies!!! Hope and pray that the producers will create TIMELESS CLASSICS AS THESE!!!

まぁ それも 良いですが
この映画の 破壊力は
ヤバいですねぇ✨️笑笑
😭 幸せに なります
The trumpet songs were actually played by Red Nichols.
Thank you my dvr cut off the end of the movie!
Mine did too. Looks like TCM didn't allot enough time to the movie schedule.
Annnnnnnnnd i cry like a babe! shut!
ES LA MEJOR ESCENA DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS
Verdadera maravilla
@cm87able Thank you so much, you are right.
The real Red Nichols looked so much different than Danny Kaye.
Did Danny actually play the trumpet? What a versatile artist.
No. They used the actual music as played by Red
私の大好きな映画、五つの銅貨🎉宝です。
Thank you. TCM played this recently, and the ending was cut off because the film lasted longer than the scheduled time for the DVR recording.
immortale.
このシーンだけで泣ける(>_
一番、良いシーンなんだよね。
DIOSES!
The girl ruined it for me. Watching just Danny and Louis, you can feel the mutual respect and absolute love for one another just through body language, the way they treat each other and move about one another, and the words and way they express their music together.
But that girl kissing everyone she greeted BUT Louis, just screams racism to me, and I can't hear her voice without seeing that now. I'm just going to skip all parts with her in them.
I always thought actors did what they are told.
Um.. This was 1959. And was set in the decades before. Doesn't make it right, but hardly worth getting that upset about a film made in the 1950s.
@@kwebster62 You're right, but the year doesn't change the way it makes me feel. It's not like I'm upset to the point it keeps me up at night xD
But I just don't think she was a good person is all. While even though it was 1959 you can see that white guy perfectly fine with black people, it just doesn't seem that she is.
