  • Georgi is an illiterate stooge in a travelling medicine show who has to flee when he unwittingly reveals that their outfit is a fraud. He wanders into the small town of Brodny, where he is arrested for vagrancy. The town's corrupt officials mistake him for the inspector general, whom they believe is travelling in disguise. Fearing he will discover that they have been pilfering the public purse, they make several bungled attempts on his life.
    Director: Henry Koster

    Grew up watching Danny Kaye. His talent has brought me laughter throughout my life.
    What couldn’t he do ?!
    Dance sing act and one of the best comedians ever !!
    I truly miss all the classic movies and artists.
    Sadly nothing today can compare.
    The vast majority of today’s movies and artists are one huge bore ! I’ll take the classics over today any day. Ty Danny for all the joy and laughter you’ve given me throughout 60 yrs and counting.

    Classic Danny Kaye! I actually have the honor of being the last person to appear on screen with him ... sort of! In the movie "Pals" (George C. Scott and Sylvia Sydney) I was a salesman in a TV store, and this was playing at the time.

    At drinks in Melbourne, while talking with guests and the Press taking photographs, Danny Kaye drank his usual Apple Cider Vinegar. Quite an Artist and knew how to work the room. After the Press had all departed, he ordered a different drink. His knowledge of how fickle the public were, had him drinking Cider Vinegar. Parents would think him to be of character, that parents wouldn’t want their children’s entertainer to drink alcohol, so he abstained, and was always aware of how quickly alcohol can ruin a reputation. That’s something we do not see these days. Great movie. Thank-you.

    One of the most legendary actors to have ever performed. I grew up watching his mastery portrayal of the storyteller Hans Christian Andersen. Additionally his collaboration with Bing Crosby in White Christmas was superb. Let’s of course not forget his interpretation of The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty either. Danny Kaye is different than most actors in that his talent is not only to bring the characters which he plays to life but to give them an embodiment through his own essence. He can sing, make you laugh and even downright cry through his performances. As a side note my Uncle is a chef and had the pleasure of cooking for Danny Kaye......my only gripe was “why didn’t you get his autograph Uncle!!?!?” Forever immortalized and never to be forgotten the one and only Danny Kaye. I honestly think you said it best while playing the Inspector General: “Brodny To The Sky”

    • @karenhall4645
      @karenhall4645 Před rokem +3

      Hans Christian Anderson was my introduction to Danny Kaye, and my family watches White Christmas every year. I still think his best movie though is The Court Jester. After several viewings that movie still cracks me up.

    Almost as good as "The Court Jester" (another Danny Kaye movie) [originally titled "The Black Fox"]. Also a comedy of likeness, bearing about mistaken identity. Lest we not forget his portrayal of Hans Christian Anderson.

      If you want some clean comedy watch tim Hawkins or Trey Kennedy. We still have clean comedy you just have to find it. People realize that sometimes you wants some family friendly stuff but sometimes you want so dark humour. Everyone has different tastes. Back then there was still “vulgar” music and comedy it just wasn’t promoted as much because of the censors.

Wow Bing Crosby has a flawless and powerful singing voice, and the waltz makes me think of an Austrian movie from the 50s called Sissi, the young princess who married the emperor, have you seen it? In every ball scene this waltz is played. But I haven’t heard lyrics for it until now, it was very nice. It’s very nice to talk to someone with a shared interest, not many in my age are into old movies. /Céline
