It was almost heartbreaking later in the movie, when Clara was sitting with her parents watching tv in the evening, about to burst into tears at thinking Marty just forgot about her, like many others. I wish the movie had shown her reaction when he finally called around 9 o’clock.
I bet she went from tearful 😢 to this 😍!? But unfortunately at the end scene of the film, it only show Marty happy reaction, so I truly believe Clara have the same reaction as well!
I was always like Marty myself...home on Saturdays., no phone call...no dates...it’s very true to life..., I had become pessimistic myself., then, at 37 I met the most wonderful guy....we got married...I always hope Marty married this girl & they lived happily thereafter!
I love this movie because I see my parents in it. Quite the opposite of Clara, my mother was movie starlet attractive but she came from a small family and my father came from a large Italian family. Dad was also a butcher co-owning his own shop in Queens, NY. Even the Stardust Ballroom scenes are reminiscent of the ballrooms both my parents would go socially. This movie hits home to you as it does me and various others who can identify with the movie and that makes this excellent movie even better.
The themes and messages in this movie are universal and timeless. I just picked up on the fact that they inspired each other to push themselves to achieve more in life. That’s true love.
Never saw this scene before. It's as good as anything in the film, and to hear Clara tell her side of the story is heart-warming. And, as a side note, look at the discipline of the director, Delbert Mann. He shoots the whole bedroom scene in one long master shot (today there would be 20 cuts in the scene). This is what happens when mature, sensitive professionals make films; it becomes art.
I never saw this scene before. I don’t know how the movie came together, but this dialogue is not in the original play. The movie as made is word for word from Paddy Chayefsky’s play. Perhaps it was cut because it was not true to Chayefsky’s vision.
@@lawrencejwinkler I'm guessing it was cut out because while it added to Clara's story, it didn't move the story along as Paddy had intended. Remember, this was about Marty's arc, his family and friend conflicts, etc. Recall that after Marty said goodbye and I'll call you to Clara, it shows her going up the stairs but then cuts to Marty going to the bus stop and his joy and happiness at finding a possible true love. I think it worked better as the audience focus was more on the Marty character than the Clara one. Just my two cents.
I think everyone of us who loves this movie roots for Marty and Clara. And that one day, after about a year dating, they take a trip to City Hall, and tie the knot, no frills. When I married at last...? I was nearly 60. 12 years contented, with a "Marty" of my own. Happily retired to New Orleans. (He's also a very good butcher, we've eaten very well BTW these last twelve years!)
That moment when Ernest Borgnine bops the bus stop sign, turns around, and runs in to the street, wind blowing in his necktie, is one of the most riveting images in cinematic history.
Last year, I saw such movies (mostly foreign): The Quiet Girl, Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris, 1982. Ironically, they run in NYC but not small town theaters. Need cable or internet now.

WOW ! This was a key scene, it gives so much more to the character of a very internally lonely person as Clara. I wish this could have been in my dvd copy of Marty.. This was so good I guess I'll have to break down and buy the Blue-ray version. I really didn't know it was out there .
This is a great find. You never saw much of Clara's home life, and the relationship with her family as you did with Marty's. It shows you a lot about her. I kind of which they kept this scene in. I loved the dad's reaction after she left, and how proud he seemed of her.
Thank you so much for posting this. Marty is my favorite movie of all time and I've watched it so many times, but I have never seen this scene until today. I want a copy of the DVD with this scene in it... it adds so much to the movie.
I have the DVD with this scene. But on t.v. like the TCM channel, it's cut out.

Saw this movie, alone, at age eight. At The Regal Theater in Wells Somerset. (Still there circa 2011 closed and in Outside, when I left the theater at around 4pm, the July sun was shining bright, having a cheering effect on most Wells' burgers - including me. I felt the sudden marked contrast of sitting alone in a darkened movie theatre, and my brightening mood away from my identifying greatly with the sad Marty storyline. At least Marty had the family culture of Italy, and great food. While I never went hungry for food, I was soo hungry for love, attention, encouragement etc., mostly from family females - unlike Marty. The film really moved me, such that the feelings it wrought affects me still. I think it won a Oscar. Greatly deserved say I.
I've watched the movie a handful of times in TCM over the years but it has the scene included. I guess it was a good thing they chose the uncut version of the movie.
I’ve seen this movie several times on TCM and it DOES have this scene. I’ve never seen the movie without it. I’d miss it in a heartbeat. Oh young love!!!
I just watched Marty again last night, it was "on demand" on TCM. This scene was not included. I originally bought the VHS from a Blockbuster sale back in my country around 2004. This scene was sure included. Reading upon it, it says many networks may have cut it from the original to fit it for tv time. Without this scene the movie lost some important quality.
@@philschumm me too, I'm just watching again before it's unavailable on Demand. Why on earth would they delete this important scene, esp when every other woman in the film were horrible controlling undermining bitches! She was the only sympathetic woman in the entire film, esp considering she just fell for a guy who is completely narcissistic and never stops talking about himself... IF they married she'd be miserable and / or depressed after a year!
Yes. I'm sure that when Clara told her Parents she was "leaving" they were so understanding and supportive. They were so parallel to Marty's & Tommy's Mothers "If You Leave Me, What's Going To Happen To Me". Their Mothers meant well and I know it was the 1950's but they had such a "Neediness" about them. I'm sure a lot of Ladies in the 1950's may have found a way to be brave and to move out of their house.
I have seen it on TCM a few times and this scene was in each of the them. I couldn't figure out why this was "deleted" as far as this thread is concerned.
So glad i had the chance to see this. It adds something more to what we know and gives us more insight into Clara and her parents. Did you notice they listened without interrupting? How wonderful. 8/27/24
I'm guessing the might have felt it slowed the pace and the focus was more on Marty than Clara. So they jumped to the scene where Marty is euphoric, slapping the bus sign and hailing the cab, in order to show how happy he was.
Great scene. Marty is a beautiful, poignant film that touches your heart and shows how great love is. I can relate to Marty; it happened to me too and we've been together through a lot of tough times by being strong and kind.
😄 I'm so glad it wasn't in Italian with English subs as I was expecting. So what a pleasant surprise to find it was the original audio. I've nothing against subtitles but I can't find this scene anywhere else so...
I watched the Blu-ray version my first time watching this, which INCLUDED this scene. I don’t know why they deleted it, it’s such a good moment of characterization for Clara, it’s what made me end up really liking her
It's mystifying why they saw fit to ax it. It's probably my favorite scene after the long conversation Clara and Marty have at the diner. I can only thank my lucky stars it was in the version I saw for the first time. Beyond adding fuel to the fire of viewers who love these two together, it's also just a very accurate depiction of what happens when you're so elated and trying to explain the cause, but you sound downright nutty to your confidante. "Lol I guess I'll have to explain later byeeee" with a doofy grin as you leave is *exactly* how it is.
A lot of people don't know this but Ernest Borgnine was also a war hero as he commanded PT Boat 73 during WWII . He was beloved by his crew who interestingly included the actor Tim Conway who later went on to star on the Carol Burnett Show. Thanks for your service both of you.
I have no idea why they deleted this delightful (& important) scene...BTW, that's character actor James Bell as Clara's Dad. (He plays mysterious con-artist Mr. Peabody in one of the episodes of the first year of Lassie {Jeff's Collie})...
watched this movie (made in my old neighborhood) 100s of times on tv and vhs and dvd since i first saw it with my family at the RKO Fordham theater (or was it the Loew's Paradise theater ?) in 1955. always had a vague memory that such a scene as this existed. it is warmly gratifying to see it again. imdb credits James Bell as Clara's father but does not indicate who played her mother. could that have been Doris Kemper (listed as "Undetermined Secondary Role" ) ? at least one of the two women seen discussing a fatal pregnancy when Angie is searching for Marty in the bar is/are not credited either.
Yes, I have never seen it in all these years - because of course it was deleted. But Clara's joy in meeting Marty, and that unspoken expectation, it's all there, and shows so much about her.
I love this love story!!! One of my top ten love story movies! Two simple strangers smitten with eachother. That's what love is all about. Nothing else matters
I've seen this scene before but I'm not sure where. I watched Marty again on streaming and this scene was not in it but I'm wondering if I saw this scene on cable. It's a very nice scene and moment and would have fit well if the movie was called Love Story (What I believe was the first and preferred title) but as it is titled Marty, keeping on the titular character after the two say goodnight for the evening worked better as it kept better focus and tightened up the movie a little. Still, it's a very nice scene and a pleasure watching it again. Thank you for posting this.
@@cbranalli Clara isn't the protagonist of the film. And while this scene beautifully expresses her feelings about Marty, as well as setup contrast later on between the way her parents accept the couple's match and his mother's disapproval, it pretty much just recaps the series of events we just witnessed between the two. Cutting this scene is an example of the filmmakers following the "show-don't-tell" rule. After he says good night, cutting to Marty running to the bus stop sign is best for the plot.
I watched this movie for the first time this week. That was such a sweet deleted scene. I wish they had left it in. It showed the deep love of her parents for her.
First of all, THANK YOU so much for uploading this scene! I'd heard about it, but have been unable to locate it anywhere, or work out if there is any DVD version (or digital download version) that contains it? I read that it was on the Turner Classic Movie's TV version and apparently on VHS tape too? 'Marty' is one of my all time favourites with one of my fave central performances in Ernest Borgnine's magnificent portrayal of the lovelorn Bronx butcher. This scene makes the next scene we see of 'Clara' even more poignant, having now known how she felt about Marty and relaying the night's events to her parents. Again, kudos to you, sir for the upload! 😀👌
thank you very much for your comment when I uploaded this scene I wanted to share it with people like you since I felt exactly the same as you when I saw this scene for the first time, marty is my favorite movie of all time and I think this scene helps a lot to know Clara's personality, thank you again
I've seen this scene - more than once - and I don't have the DVD. I just checked and it is not in the version on Amazon Prime. I probably saw it on TCM. It sure does nail how you feel as you begin to suspect you've just met someone special, doesn't it?
i couldnt help but notice, when Marty is waiting at the bus stop, there isnt a car in sight on either side of the road, he bops the bus sign, and runs to the road for a taxi, and AMAZING!!! THERE'S CARS/TAXIS EVERYWHERE LOL
After 'Marty' was completed, Burt Lancaster, whose company had produced the film, demanded of director Delbert Mann "why didn't you shoot more scenes?" I guess he didn't know about this deleted scene. That said, I think they should have shot a final scene of Marty and Clara leaving her apartment building on their second date; audiences will always wonder whether she would refuse to see Marty again after he stood her up (not phoning earlier) after listening to his stupid friends' opinions of her.
@@TWS-pd5dc I disagree with the above. It was cruel, inconsiderate and rude of Marty not to call her back at the time he promised. Unless Marty was completely obtuse, he should have understood that Clara was very sensitive to being "brushed off", as she obviously thought she had been (sitting in her living room crying). It would have served him right if she had told him to get lost.
@@johnthompson4067plus she might've assumed he called later so he could just get her out again at night and maybe get a bj since it would be the second date.
*Ill give you a Call you about 11:00 - 11:11 **Nov 5, 1955... the day he slipped off the toilet while hanging a picture, hit his head, and had a vision. ***Damn, i need to meet a woman like That!!!
I've also seen, and have in my collection, the 1953 TV version of 'Marty', starring Rod Steiger and Nancy Marchand. In her scenes, Nancy is wearing a beautiful party dress, while in the movie version Betsy was dressed as though for her classroom, ie, plain blouse and skirt. Her sister was nicely dressed and surely would have advised her to dress up for the dance hall. My guess would be that Delbert Mann realized that Betsy was a pretty, attractive woman and asked her to "dress down" to underline her wallflower image. On another topic, I wonder if anyone familiar with The Bronx knows where the exteriors were filmed, including Clara's apartment building?
Why was this scene deleted? I appreciate it as a sort of "lynch pin" scenario that enhances and expounds upon the personal characterization of Clara, and sets the stage, so to speak, for her tenuous anticipation of Marty's phone call the following afternoon. Without this little interpersonal vignette (Clara's enthused news expressed to her parents), the subliminal stiltedness of Clara's terse waiting for Marty's call all day on Sunday, consequently lacks substance...and just falls flat in its relative ambiguity.
It was almost heartbreaking later in the movie, when Clara was sitting with her parents watching tv in the evening, about to burst into tears at thinking Marty just forgot about her, like many others. I wish the movie had shown her reaction when he finally called around 9 o’clock.
I bet she went from tearful 😢 to this 😍!? But unfortunately at the end scene of the film, it only show Marty happy reaction, so I truly believe Clara have the same reaction as well!
Sometimes it's better to imagine a reaction than to see it. And after all, the title is "Marty," not "Clara."
Her scene on the sofa is absolutely memorable. Not one word, just used her face with such intensity!!
@@girlfromthebronxbywayofelb7288 Solid acting all the way!
I have never been able to see The Snake Pit. I hear that Betsy Blair is intense in that movie too.
I never rooted for a movie couple so hard to end up together as I did for these two.

A simpler time when people were more human than today.
Wished they would have been able to leave it in. Thank you for sharing 👍🏻
Borgnine was absolutely pitch perfect. An Oscar-winning performance for the ages.
And the vision to cast Borgnine as the romantic lead, talk about being rewarded for thinking "outside the box", just brilliant.
This is a great find. You never saw much of Clara's home life, and the relationship with her family as you did with Marty's. It shows you a lot about her. I kind of which they kept this scene in.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! This scene is key to understand the character of Clara. I don't know why it was omitted from the DVD.
My sentiments exactly....regarding Clara's eager, jubilant and tender "sharing" of such a delighted confidence with her most intimate loved ones.
it's still on the vhs tape

Cutting this scene is an example of the filmmakers following the "show-don't-tell" rule. After he says good night, cutting to Marty running to the bus stop sign is best for the plot.
Goukeban Well, I do NOT “understand why” they cut this scene...it explains so much and bring more understanding of Clara’s character.
@@monostarsky to be fair Clara didn't get much screen time
We are all Marty
It's added in most screenings now. On TMC they always show it.
I watched this movie for the first time this week. That was such a sweet deleted scene. I wish they had left it in. It showed the deep love of her parents for her.
First of all, THANK YOU so much for uploading this scene! I'd heard about it, but have been unable to locate it anywhere, or work out if there is any DVD version (or digital download version) that contains it? I read that it was on the Turner Classic Movie's TV version and apparently on VHS tape too? 'Marty' is one of my all time favourites with one of my fave central performances in Ernest Borgnine's magnificent portrayal of the lovelorn Bronx butcher. This scene makes the next scene we see of 'Clara' even more poignant, having now known how she felt about Marty and relaying the night's events to her parents.
Again, kudos to you, sir for the upload! 😀👌
thank you very much for your comment when I uploaded this scene I wanted to share it with people like you since I felt exactly the same as you when I saw this scene for the first time, marty is my favorite movie of all time and I think this scene helps a lot to know Clara's personality, thank you again
@@claudiov5554 You're very welcome and it's great to read both your comment and so many others on this post from fellow kindred spirits ☺
This scene is also in the version played on TCM.
There's something so eternally honest and sincere about Ernest Borginine but having to deal with reality.
It's sad how these screens get they cut really put the movie in a better perspective
It's a good scene but not necessary. It was right to cut it. We aready knew both Marty and Clara were full of hope for each other.
I've seen this scene - more than once - and I don't have the DVD. I just checked and it is not in the version on Amazon Prime. I probably saw it on TCM.
It sure does nail how you feel as you begin to suspect you've just met someone special, doesn't it?
wow - i wish they'd kept this scene in the film!
i couldnt help but notice, when Marty is waiting at the bus stop, there isnt a car in sight on either side of the road, he bops the bus sign, and runs to the road for a taxi, and AMAZING!!! THERE'S CARS/TAXIS EVERYWHERE LOL
Of all the deleted scenes that needed to be included.....
What a triumphant scene! I wonder why it was cut out.
I don’t see why they deleted this short scene in some showings.
His happiness at the end of this scene is the direct opposite of how sad he was.
I just saw this scene on TCM tonight so obviously not deleted now. The scene is great exposition so I’m glad it’s in the movie.
She's a teacher, so she's trained to be encouraging to difficult cases.
I’ve always seen the one with this scene. And Ernest B got the Academy Award for this movie!
This scene was NOT deleted from the movie! I've seen the movie several times and I know this scene very well.
This scene is in most versions I've seen. Maybe there's a version in which it was deleted for TV commercials at one time. Thank you!
After 'Marty' was completed, Burt Lancaster, whose company had produced the film, demanded of director Delbert Mann "why didn't you shoot more scenes?" I guess he didn't know about this deleted scene. That said, I think they should have shot a final scene of Marty and Clara leaving her apartment building on their second date; audiences will always wonder whether she would refuse to see Marty again after he stood her up (not phoning earlier) after listening to his stupid friends' opinions of her.
No, he really didn't "stand her up". He was late calling her but better late than never! I"m sure she was relieved and euphoric when he called!
@@TWS-pd5dc I disagree with the above. It was cruel, inconsiderate and rude of Marty not to call her back at the time he promised. Unless Marty was completely obtuse, he should have understood that Clara was very sensitive to being "brushed off", as she obviously thought she had been (sitting in her living room crying). It would have served him right if she had told him to get lost.
@@johnthompson4067plus she might've assumed he called later so he could just get her out again at night and maybe get a bj since it would be the second date.
Her parents were like " ah, yes I remember the 1800s" lol . Love this movie 🎬
Actually, both of them are pretty charming and good looking in the movie.
*Ill give you a Call you about 11:00 - 11:11
**Nov 5, 1955... the day he slipped off the toilet while hanging a picture, hit his head, and had a vision.
***Damn, i need to meet a woman like That!!!
I've also seen, and have in my collection, the 1953 TV version of 'Marty', starring Rod Steiger and Nancy Marchand. In her scenes, Nancy is wearing a beautiful party dress, while in the movie version Betsy was dressed as though for her classroom, ie, plain blouse and skirt. Her sister was nicely dressed and surely would have advised her to dress up for the dance hall. My guess would be that Delbert Mann realized that Betsy was a pretty, attractive woman and asked her to "dress down" to underline her wallflower image.
On another topic, I wonder if anyone familiar with The Bronx knows where the exteriors were filmed, including Clara's apartment building?
Did they do location shoots back then? I would have assumed it was a studio set.
This scene was undeleted.
Why was this scene deleted? I appreciate it as a sort of "lynch pin" scenario that enhances and expounds upon the personal characterization of Clara, and sets the stage, so to speak, for her tenuous anticipation of Marty's phone call the following afternoon. Without this little interpersonal vignette (Clara's enthused news expressed to her parents), the subliminal stiltedness of Clara's terse waiting for Marty's call all day on Sunday, consequently lacks substance...and just falls flat in its relative ambiguity.
Exactly.
What a genuine sweetheart
I thought they made a nice looking couple.❤
It seems we’re afraid to show our true feelings nowadays. We live in the greatest country in the world but we’re not happy.😢
