She could act! She could sing and dance! And was the best pin up girl during WW2! She has been gone 47 years now and her films still hole up and give joy! Thank you Betty!!!
I love Betty Grable...she was so sweet and beautiful. If you are ever feeling blue just put on one of her movies. They are such a joy a to watch. I loved her in 'Moon over Miami' with the handsome Don Ameche.
Betty is my favorite movie blond of all time. Yes every era had their blond. The 30s had Harlow,West and Faye. The 40s had Grable,Hutton,another favorite,Turner and Landis. Then the 50s with Monroe and Mansfield. Who was after that,Doris Day,the perennial virgin? They were all entertaining.
I love Betty Grable,she did some good dancing in this one and to reply to the previous comment i do think Betty Grable is better than Marilyn,everyone has their favorite blond and Bettys mine!
Betty was great and a big hit as a pin up during the second world war. She was 20 when in the movie Follow the Fleet with Ginger Rogers who was 25 in 1936. Unfortunately, she died at 54.
You can see her sing in the 1936 movie Follow the Fleet where she and two others support Ginger Rogers singing. Ginger was 25 and Betty was 20. She was in the middle of three female singers to Ginger's left.
Betty Grable and Victor Mature both ljked to minimize their talents. Betty said 'There are two reasons for my success, and I'm standing on them.' Mature said 'Actually I'm a golfer. That is my real occupation." Critics ridiculed them, but time has passed a different verdict. Grable easily surmounts her limitations as a dancer, helped by Hermes Pan's crafty choreography, which makes a string of rudimentary and unrelated moves look slick. Mature"s portrayal of a big-headed boxer trying to crack Broadway is superbly tuned. The sense of shared amusement with the audience at the absurdity of the film's conventions is part of the spirit of irony that crept into pictures in the 1940s, comparable with 'Hellzapoppin' or the "Road to' series. By now the musical genre had been around for over a decade and Hollywood was ready to kid it.
MenFromSpain1922// well, it depends on the others who they prefer! If you don't know, Betty Grable has a questionable and eery story behind the curtains!
Why is image horizontally squeezed. Betty wasn’t that tall; neither were the rest of the cast. Rather spoils the clip. Please don’t do this with future uploads. .
