Movie Clip

This Is The Army (1943) -- (Movie Clip) Opening, Mr. Irving Berlin Opening credit sequence as befitting the 1943 Technicolor Irving Berlin/Warner Bros. musical, based on his Broadway and roadshow productions, the profits for everything going to the Army Emergency Relief fund, supporting soldiers and their families, from This Is The Army, 1943.
Pepe (1960) -- (Movie Clip) How Humiliatin'! Cantinflas (title character), seeking his beloved horse, has reached Las Vegas, where director George Sidney lays down another barrage of cameos, this time including Frank Sinatra, Cesar Romero, Jimmy Durante and just the start of Dean Martin's bit (Peter Lawford and Sammy Davis Jr. done earlier), in Pepe, 1960.
College Humor (1933) -- (Movie Clip) Down The Old Ox Road Joining in an already elaborate musical montage with an original song by Paramount staffers Arthur Johnston and Sam Coslow, jock Barney and sorority gal Amber (Jack Oakie and Mary Kornman) on their first date eventually tumble to singing professor Danvers (Bing Crosby), in College Humor 1933.
College Humor (1933) -- (Movie Clip) Colleen Of Killarney Mary Kornman is daffy co-ed Amber, inquiring with George Burns and Gracie Allen, who appear here unbidden in their first scene, using their own names, before their radio show, known mostly at the time for Paramount one-reelers, maneuvering into an un-credited song, in Paramount’s sprawling College Humor, 1933.
College Humor (1933) -- (Movie Clip) Going My Way? Half hour into the picture, singing Professor Danvers (Bing Crosby) has just dismissed his class and we finally meet 4th-billed Mary Carlisle as much-discussed co-ed Barbara, who toys with the professor then with waiting football star Mondrake (Richard Arlen), in Paramount’s College Humor 1933.
Arizona (1940) -- (Movie Clip) Opening: Tucson Credits and prologue lead to an intimate review of a wagon train and its arrival in at Tucson, led by Muncie (William Holden) and Haley (George Chandler) in director Wesley Ruggles' Arizona, 1940.
Arizona (1940) -- (Movie Clip) No Serenadin' Feisty Phoebe (Jean Arthur) expressing her intention to make something of her enterprise in Tucson despite rampant corruption, as the judge (Edgar Buchanan) sentences Joe (Earl Crawford) and drifter Muncie (William Holden) steers clear, in Arizona, 1940.
Arizona (1940) -- (Movie Clip) Do What The Lady Says Tough Phoebe Titus (Jean Arthur), known to be the only woman in the territory, demands some justice from Ward (Porter Hall) and his men Timmins and Longstreet (Sid Saylor and Wade Crosby), with an assist from new-in-town Muncie (William Holden) in Wesley Ruggles' Arizona, 1940.
Holiday Inn (1942) -- (Movie Clip) I'll Capture Your Heart Singing The opening scenes have established that Lila Dixon (Virginia Dale) is torn between singer Jim Hardy (Bing Crosby) and dancer Ted Hanover (Fred Astaire), on what’s supposed to be the final appearance for their threesome, occasioning the fist Irving Berlin tune, in Holiday Inn, 1942.
Holiday Inn (1942) -- (Movie Clip) White Christmas The first movie placement of what is widely seen as the best-selling single of all time, by Irving Berlin, here as a duet by night-club/innkeeper Bing Crosby, with Marjorie Reynolds, (her vocal dubbed by Martha Mears), as her audition, but not the recording on the record, in Holiday Inn, 1942.
Love Before Breakfast (1936) -- (Movie Clip) She Ran After An Old Airedale Engaged New Yorkers Kay (Carole Lombard) and Bill (Cesar Romero), introduced here, have no idea that zillionaire Scott (Preston Foster) is behind the job offer that’s got him rushing for the boat to Japan, all meeting with the kooky countess (Betty Lawford) at the pier, early in Love Before Breakfast, 1936.
Love Before Breakfast (1936) -- (Movie Clip) Where'd You Get This Blue Eye? Carole Lombard as socialite Kay was accidentally clobbered by her rich suitor Scott (Preston Foster) the night before, so she visits Charles (George Andre Beranger) at the salon, only to find he?s not given up, in Universal?s Love Before Breakfast, 1936.
