Flying Deuces, The (1939) -- (Movie Clip) At The Fish Market In Des Moines Opening in fake Paris, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, in a one-off independently produced picture, away from their Hal Roach studio home, start with word-play then introduce charming Parisienne Georgette (Jean Parker), Oliver?s love interest, in The Flying Deuces, 1939.

Flying Deuces, The (1939) -- (Movie Clip) At Large In Seine In Paris, Oliver has been spurned by his French girlfriend, and presumes Stan will join him in a suicide dive, unaware of a giant shark cruising the Seine, in the independent Laurel & Hardy feature The Flying Deuces, 1939.

Carnegie Hall (1947) -- (Movie Clip) From Your Own Private Box Marsha Hunt narrates as Irish "Nora," recalling her first night in America, greeted by conductor Damrosch (Harold Dyrenforth), who arranged for her to see Tchaikovsky, during the 1891 opening week, in Edgar G. Ulmer's tribute film, Carnegie Hall, 1947.

Carnegie Hall (1947) -- (Movie Clip) Lily Pons The narrative featuring Marsha Hunt nearly abandoned here, in favor of the performance by the French-born soprano Lily Pons, singing from one of her signature roles, from Delibes' "Lakme," in the 1947 tribute to the famous theater, Carnegie Hall.

Carnegie Hall (1947) -- (Movie Clip) Rise Stevens Marsha Hunt is a maid on the staff, mother of an aspiring pianist (William Prince), their chat leading to another performance, by mezzo-soprano Rise Stevens, star of the Metropolitan Opera, with a selection from her celebrated interpretation of Bizet's "Carmen," in Carnegie Hall, 1947.

Carnegie Hall (1947) -- (Movie Clip) I Just Don't Feel It Your Way The opening scene, joining near the middle of a convoluted narrative, Hans Yaray at the piano, Harold Dyrenforth playing the conductor Walter Damrosch, and Marsha Hunt who is, at this stage, just an Irish immigrant maid, in director Edgar G. Ulmer's elaborate all-star tribute to Carnegie Hall, 1947.

Carnegie Hall (1947) -- (Movie Clip) Artur Rubinstein Possibly the heftiest piece in the picture, the celebrated pianist plays Chopin's "Heroic" Polonaise, the director Edgar G. Ulmer feeling it as well, in the loosely-dramatic mostly-performance tribute film Carnegie Hall, 1947.

Second Chorus (1940) -- (Movie Clip) Been Wanting To Meet You Fred Astaire as a college band leader is arrested by the gaze of Paulette Goddard, the future wife of his equally attentive partner and rival Burgess Meredith, her being briefly on the arm of Frank Melton as "Stu,", the flirtatious opening of H.C. Potter's Second Chorus, 1940.

Second Chorus (1940) -- (Movie Clip) Who's Artie Shaw? Now manager of a dance band fronted by Fred Astaire and Burgess Meredith, Paulette Goddard (as "Ellen") looks for business and plays dumb when asked about their rival, the famed Artie Shaw, portraying himself, in independent producer Boris Morros' Second Chorus, 1940.

Second Chorus (1940) -- (Movie Clip) Dig It Paulette Goddard was no dancer, trained or otherwise, so in that light she does well, with Fred Astaire, with an original tune by Hal Borne and Johnny Mercer, choreographed by Hermes Pan, the first dance number in Second Chorus, 1940.

Flying Deuces, The (1939) -- Original Trailer Theatrical trailer for the Laurel & Hardy “comeback” (which it wasn’t, since it had been just over a year since their last feature), following a dispute with Hal Roach, so made by independent producer Boris Morros, from 1939, released by RKO, The Flying Deuces.
