I don't know why this movie wasn't a big hit like singing in the rain and an American in Paris. This makes me feel so warm and fuzzy inside watching it. Cyd Charesse was a lovely singer.
Actually Cyd was usually dubbed in her films. In this one the singer is actually Carol Richards. She also dubbed for Joan Caulfield in The Petty Girl and Vera Ellen in Call Me Madame.
Ever since I was a kid and first saw this movie with my family I always admired Fiona's sprit. She was living in a time when young girls her age rushed in and got married in order to "save face" She wanted none of that. She wanted to wait for the right man.
They've added that red petticoat under Cyd's skirt to show her hidden passion that keeps peeping out, and sometimes even blatantly shows. Looks great in the "Heather On The Hill" dance sequence with Gene, too......❤️
I just dreamt about these women I wonder where they're buried😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 I would love to go visit everybody's grave and play this movie and remember them.
Not only is this a beautiful song but it has a very good message as well. And Carol Richards, the singer that dubs for Cyd, had a beautiful voice! It’s a shame this was yet another example of a ghost singer dubbing over the actress and not getting credited, but we can credit her now
@@roberthill7285 Actually Dee Turnell was also dubbed by Bonnie Murray in this song too. Also during the movie’s 'I'll Go Home With Bonnie Jean' number, Jimmy Thompson was dubbed by Jean Gustafson, which is a little confusing since he wasn’t dubbed in any of the other songs.
Cyd Charisse is very beautiful woman who can sing and dance. "Waitin' For My Dearie" is a pleasant song sung by a very talented woman. I guess we all wait for someone dear.
Brigadoon is one of my all time favorite movies. One corner of our Bridge is named Brigadoon. The Bridge is a meeting place for visitors to come and sit and exchange lives stories. I'm there almost everyday to meet and greet people who may come from all over the World.
Waitin for mr Dearie. ❤ I'll wait.. even till after I die, till th the next life too, to be married & sealed in the Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints.
