  • Going back a few years to see Clark Gable sing and dance in the 1939 film “Idiots Delight” starring him and Norma Shearer. Rumor has it, he did not want to do this number because it didn’t fit is masculine character image. “Puttin’ On The Ritz” was written in 1929 by Irving Berlin.

    sometimes it’s hard to believe he was so terrified of doing this in the first place as he practiced nearly everyday for his wife, carole, even when he had it down perfectly for the sole reason he was extremely nervous of getting it wrong. apparently as well, they done the ending part just in case had he fallen and gotten injured ~ i’m still joyed that they decided to keep it in.

    Clark Gable was so underrated, he was a comedic actor. For example It Happened One Night, Teacher’s Pet & It Started in Naples. It’s a shame that his abilities weren’t used as much. 👏👏👏

    If someone says, “Wow, I didn’t know Clark Gable could sing and dance.” That’s probably because he didn’t. He was forced to sing and dance this number because at this time, MGM was forcing stars to practice singing and dancing in order to broaden their musical genre.

    This was pure camp and no one appreciated the joke more than Clark! He was, indeed, an idiot, and a delight, and he looked like he was having a ball! I loved how the chorus girls carried him off the floor at the end. Finally, a full chorus line of women swept HIM off his feet! So funny!

    That’s what I love about old movies; they were always stopping dead so that someone could do an amazing song and dance number. I haven’t seen this film but based on what I have seen, I assume the rest of the movie doesn’t have a lot to do with Rhett Butler and a bunch of Rockettes singing Irving Berlin.
    Though I might be wrong

  • @force263

    Great scene, also provided material for the Young Frankenstein parody, both are legendary. Wonder what CG would have thought of it had he lived long enough, he’d probably have gotten a kick. I’ve never heard what Randolph Scott thought about Brooks either (Scott’s status as one of the great western stars is what causes the Blazing Saddles’ townspeople - specifically David Huddleston (aka The Big Lebowski) - to take their hat off when they hear anyone mention “Randolph Scott” 😂)

    @ISIO-George Před 2 lety +1

    Catchy tune, wee bit racist lyrics. Rewritten and cleaned up a few years later for Fred Astaire. Check out the 1930 version with Harry Richman with an interracial ensemble that also has black skyscraper scenery dancing in the background! I recall at one time seeing it used in another 1930s movie with the original version, that included a very debonair Gary Cooper in the cast, but I can't seem to find a clip of it and don't remember the name of the movie. Maybe my memory is off, it was several decades ago when I saw it (or so I think).

    A "Betty Grable". Ask Tucker Carlson what a "Betty Grable" is apart from a late film star. Clark Gable and Betty Grable and George Raft.
    Tucker Carlson is a duper and in my view not a super duper. Just a duper because he has no back-up plan when asked to explain his tall tales.

      He was terrified of the waltz scene in GWTW... especially with Vivian Leigh. He was intimidated by the fact she was a professionally trained actress.
      So, the 1st shot of Gable at the bottom of the steps... You could hear the women sighing in the theater! I was lucky enough to see it many times on the big screen... The only way to see it!
