Danny Kaye, what a talent he was. My dear old Mom and Dad would in stiches watching Dannys' films they just adored him. What a marvellous entertainer he was. One of Hollywood's greats in my opinion, and he was so versatile. He could sing, dance, act, and that's just we know about him. He probably wrote too . He was just so multi-talented. R.I.P. dear Danny Kaye. You are missed.
Brilliant Danny Kaye. Beautiful PierAngeli and the amazing acrobatic dancing of Tommy Rall (he's the one catches Danny all the time) who was Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly wrapped into one.

Thank you for posting this! //// penciltest2 Isn't this a great number?? -- I had forgotten this film had some good numbers. Unfortunately, the first time I saw it on commercial tv, they cut the numbers out of it. I grew up thinking that this would have been a good musical. -- And wouldn't it make a great stage musical now??? A little story re-write and a Danny Kaye type, it'd be fun. -- Wait there ain't no Danny Kayes of today. See America?? Stop encouraging American Idol! /// R Pollack Who wouldn't join the circus to be with Pier Angeli? What song can't Danny Kaye make at least interesting and fun?

Danny Como Siempre is spectacular. //// problembaerli what a great song, what a nice performance. Danny Kaye was a real master of light feet but high-quality comedy. immutable! /// warner archive Danny Kaye delights in this whimsical musical that celebrates the circus of life. Free from schoolmaster duties for the summer, amateur archeologist Andrew Larabee (Kaye) arrives at his prospective dig site only to find it inhabited by a circus. While pursuing his dusty dreams, Andrew discovers his true calling might just be more clownish than he had imagined. This musical's already abundant charm is further buoyed by the wonderful score by Saul Chaplin and Johnny Mercer, orchestrated by Nelson Riddle, and the directing debut of Michael Kidd. This CinemaScope charmer is making its home video premiere (with original StereoPhonic Sound intact!) and awaits a worthy rediscovery. 16x9 WIDESCREEN. //// RU-vid Movies Archaeologist Andrew Larabee tunnels below an English meadow, seeking a rare historical relic.

I never use that phrase, but I will now. /// sunny Chuang It's such a fine day for the townspeople to have great fun and to sing along with the English school teacher Mr. Andrew Larabee (played by the ever-sprightly Danny Kaye) who was in the pleasant mood while riding on his bicycle.This was one of the most memorable and very-entertaining musical numbers in 1958 MGM's Merry Andrew. Indeed the versatility, spontaneity, and credibility of Danny Kaye in his hilarious and musical scenes were/will always be momentous, unparalleled, and tickety-boo. //// Koeshey I think I have been in madly love with Danny for years. He died when I was just a few months old, but I've heard his voice more than any other men. He is there when I need him, makes me laugh when I'm sad, and his smile is the most adorable thing.

Pier Angeli was in love with James Dean but her mother made her marry Vic Damone. They divorced and 13 years after this picture she committed suicide. Tommy Rall had a crossed eye, which must have been the reason he never became known as the best dancer in Hollywood, which he was. .
