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) 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.
