@@sgupta4although it always kind of weirds me out how the bosom of the dress does not go with her when she moves. Can't tell if that's a bug, or a feature intended to heighten the sense that she is stripping while keeping her clothes on.
Rita was awesome, she was beautiful, she can dance, act, so good, she was so talented. I think she had it all. I love her, she deserved a very happy life, it's sad that her life wasn't good
Hollywood's Secret Singing Star is a cd featuring Jo Ann Greer's songs. She dubbed Rita in three films: Affair in Trinidad, Miss Sadie Thompson, and Pal Joey. She was a great vocal match for Rita's voice.
💕HAPPY 100TH BIRTHDAY RITA!!!💕 THE MOST BEAUTIFUL... THE MOST TALENTED... THE MOST LOVED GODDESS EVER TO GRACE THIS WORLD!!! You will live on in our hearts FOREVER. Rest in peace dear lady.💕💕💕
Poor Rita, she had everything, yet she had to die at such a young age. Whatever your personal definition of "Beauty" is, I doubt that you will find many as beautiful as she was.
For anyone who doesn't know the context of the scene: in the film, Sinatra's character has just put together that the wealthy socialite chairing the hospital fundraiser was formerly known as a stripper under a slightly different name. He has publicly cornered her and created a potentially humiliating situation by telling the people her former line of work in the process of urging them to contribute the remaining money for the charity. His urging includes the implication that she might strip, which would be not only awkward for her but potentially torpedo the new and more conventionally respectable life she has made ... not to mention get her locked up under the obscenity laws of the day. Instead, she fulfills the pledge by sexily _miming_ her strip act while remaining fully dressed.
0:38 That’s my uncle Jimmy Fernandes on the left, on the drums. He was a session musician that played in background bands in many movies. He also taught Sal Mineo how to play drums for the movie The Gene Krupa Story.
For anyone unfamiliar with the original work, the song is supposed to be sung about Gypsy Rose Lee by a reporter talking about what Lee said she thinks about while stripping. Instead, the song is sung as if the singer _were_ a former stripper, which may also explain why the nonsense name "Plinsky" is substituted for the real name of the owner of the burlesque house, Minsky.
I've just been reading about Rita's life. Such (by all accounts) a sweet lady....but what a troubled life....starting with a sexually abusive father, according to her one time husband, Orson Wells. But what beauty and joy she brought to so many.
Rita. Hottest woman ever. EVER. Oh, and Jean Louis knew how to dress her. He designed this magnificent strapless dress as well as her iconic first in “Gilda.”
Everybody talking about how good she looked for her age. If you watch the film, there's another scene where her hair isn't tied that way, and she looks just as young as the films she did 10 years before. Timeless gorgeousness really. But you can tell how much the way your hair is done makes a difference!
Well I don't remember where I heard it...maybe TCM...but around this time I think she was signing autographs or something and a young boy said she looked really old lol.
una belleza de Mujer ..atriz y Bailarina maravillosa.....no necesitaba mostrar tanto como ahora para lucir maravillosa...hoy mas que nada Vulgaridad y Banalidad....triste....
It was a fairly seamless transition from Rita's "spoken words" intro over to Jo Ann Greer's singing the song, it was a pretty good match. I wonder if Rita ever sang at all on her own, I do know that she sang on the Carol Burnett Show.
@@randywhite3947 outline of the whole body from a distance. Rita’s was terrific with those lovely long legs and torso. So elegant and graceful but her face though also lovely but was not in the Gardner class. Hayworth was a hard worker and took her career seriously unlike Ava semi deserted her career and settled in Spain refused to enter Hollywood after 1953. Rita made series of good films unlike Ava.
@@fareedmalik6777in her defense, not only were many of her physical charms quite real, but a great deal of what _wasn't_ resulted from the need to find a way to work regularly in an industry that severely limited the options for those who lacked one or more characteristics of the WASP stereotype. She was encouraged, even somewhat coerced, to downplay her Hispanic and Jewish heritage in favor of focusing on the Irish-English side of the family tree.
Okay "Broadway Classics', thank you so much for this restored clip! Actually Rita and Jo Ann Greer DID film a third "Pal Joey" number. Don't know how much it may have been watered-down for the film. Anyway as per director George Sidney expert author Eric Monder, "What Is a Man?" was filmed, shown in previews (the NY Times mentioned it), but later cut. The number was 'at' the rather rough cut where Joey (Frank Sinatra) leaves Vera (Rita Hayworth) having tea on her veranda (actually San Francisco's Coit Tower). On stage at least "WISM?" is a lovely cum amusing song. Why can't Columbia Pictures (aka SONY) and/or You find THAT missing clip? Every "Pal Joey" (stage and screen) fan would love you for it. Best, HJ
One of the great beauties of all times, unfortunately unhappy marriages took a toll on her gorgeous face by the time this was filmed. She moved in front of the camera as a proper goddess. It’ s been said that while filming Sadie Thompson the cameraman called in for the make up man to deterge some little drops of sweat from Rita’s forehead due to the powerful baking lights. The cameraman told him : Miss Hayworth is sweating, and he disdainfully replied: Miss Hayworth doesn’t sweat, She SHINES!
Огромное спасибо Вам за прекрасное видео и Танцы Шедевр. Всего самого наилучшего вам в жизни Успехов во всем Счастья Любви Взаимной и Радости в жизни 6
I find it hard to believe that Columbia would discard the stereo masters for anything (not least from the late 50s starring FS and RH), in the 1990s, when preservation was firmly in the public consciousness!
Thank you for restoring this piece of the film. I have a 16mm Technicolor copy, amazing color and great sound. But how is it... that Sinatra catches Hayworth off guard to sing the song. She does it flawless and the background orchestra is also prepared with all the music needed to perform the number!
This is a great clip with great stereo sound. Fab! Love the movie version but it's toned down from the original and the lyrics were really cleaned up for the film. "Who the hell is Margie Hart?"
RITA HAD SEVERAL DUBBERS THRU THE YEARS...ANITA ELLIS IN GILDA. ETC.....BUT WHO CARES? SHE COULD ACT AND DANCE AND WAS AN EYE FULL...LOVED HER IN EVERY THING SHE EVER DID...GILDA WAS MY FAVORITE THOUGH....
aaaw beauuuuuuutiful just beauuuuuuutiful love Rita so so so much she was just gifted period no question about just so lovely in that classic classy sassy way of showmen ship through out every song she sing and every dance she perform with or without a partner she shine I just love the heck out of her because she is was and always will be beautiful love you baby with your sweeet sexy ahh hot hot hot self peace everybody😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
Amazing performance of an amazing song. Does anyone know the circumstances under which it was rewritten for the film? As well as the updated lyrics, the final section (from "and my thoughts they skip..." to "I'm a broad with a broad broad mind") has new music too. I naturally assume Rodgers was responsible for the latter, but I've always wanted to know for sure
Belated thanks! Lyrically, I prefer the original (though Cahn made some beautiful additions). Musically, the new ending is inspired... it lifts the song into a triumphant cadence and rounds it off with exultation rather than irony
The original lyrics from the Broadway show were a little too naughty for movies. Of course the lyrics had to be updated for some of the references and names. The show was 1940/41 I think, while the movie is from 1957.
+Dr Julian Cauceglia ln Paris I headlined the follies Billed as doll of all the dollies Admired by the great Stravinsky But my greatest achievement in the height of my career Was the time I starred for Minsky You're looking at a former stripper But before I unzip one zipper I want it known I was quite the artiste But the intellectual kind What was I thinking while I worked you might ask While I worked these thoughts kept crossing my mind Zip, Walter Lippmann wasn't brilliant today Zip, will the Giants ever take it away Zip, l was reading Schopenhauer last night Zip, and I think that Schopenhauer was right Sigmund Freud has often stated dreams and drives are all related Zip, I'm a firm believer Dorothy Dix's daily column tells that love is dear and solemn Zip, l can take or leave her Zip, it took intellect to master my art Zip, every movement from the heart l have read the works of Plato Translated most of Cato Zip, I am such a scholar I don't care for Whistler's mother Charley's aunt or Schubert's brother Zip, had to make a dollar Zip, you have asked me what l think while l work Zip, I've an intellectual quirk And my thoughts may skip whenever so inclined Oh, zip, Zip, zip l'm a broad with a broad, broad mind!
Dr. Julian Cauceglia. I wonder how many times I've watched this clip. And yet, I am so mesmerised by the dance routine that I never really bothered with the words other than bits here and there. Reading the words here - what a wonderful lyric- in future I will watch the clip again and enjoy the words. Trouble is, once I can follow the words, some of the magic, the mystique will disappear. Thanks anyway.
In the original broadway play, the song was sung by a different character. They gave the song to the lead for the film version and modified the story and lyrics to make it work.
