Jane Powell - Love Is Where You Find It

[chelzeaify]

a voice like her's iz beyond angelic description.

[listeningtoit]

Taylor´s first grown up role in Hollywood! Her first kiss on film. She´s dubbed on her song. Powell was a typical "microphone" singer made in hollywood, with rudimentary musical trainning and a squeaky voice. Grayson was a little better. Carmen Miranda is also in the movie, stealing every scene in which she appears, playing a rhumba teacher to Wallace Beery. He passed away a few weeks after finishing this film. He is too old for the role of Powell´s father but the things works out!

R.I.P beautiful Elizabeth

I love this movie! They don't make them like this anymore... :)

[heresmysweetusername]

[houzan8]

I love how uncomfortable Robert Stacks looks when he see' Jane Powell looking at him...purposefully.

[krazikatie180]

I love this song.. she's so beautiful. I've looked everywhere for this sheet music and can't seem to find it! Does anyone know where I might have some success? Thanks!

[AKQJ40]

tTHE "BAND LEADER" LOOKS LIKE HE IS IN THE 8TH GRADE! ROFL

[msinvincible2000]

Robert Stack is so terribly handsome!!! Why don't they make men like this any more?

[msinvincible2000]

I've been looking for this film for more than 15 years... Can someone please upload it?

[yaupaung36]

@msinvincible2000 Robert Stack was adorable. He passed away 2009 I think. Lovely man in every way.

[cda345]

My vote goes to Jane over Kathryn for superior rendition of this song. Anybody agree or disagree? Not trying to start a fight just a civil discussion(:

[NOSEhow2LIV]

@cda345 Jane is vocally the winner, for me, but Kathryn has the advantage of temperament, and a more vital tempo. Both are splendid in their different ways, including the smouldering looks cast around!

[Tootsy39]

Of course that's Kathryn Grayson! Unmistakable voice!

[stephenjoeagi]

Wonderful.

[southernchik427]

Does anyone know where i could find the lyrics to this song???

[yalehd]

Only rarely today do we hear a performance as superb, clear and clean as this one. This was back when Hollywood was the Greatest.

And Jane was a wonderful down to earth believable actress also.

[gypcnme]

Those were the days! Sigh...

[elvenlove]

I remember singing this when I was 14, I had no idea it was actually in a movie. It was a very old folio, I thought it was just an art song. How cool to find it here : )

[rachelstidd]

Hey, is there a way you could put the whole movie here on youtube??? Thanks Rachel Stidd

[rodrigo18matoso]

Elizabeth Taylor is different on every movie she appears. Little Women showed one. The Last time I saw Paris it was another. Suddeny Last Summer (her best) another one. Virginia Woolf. Sandpipers. The only thing she has in all of them is her beauty. This had to be said . But her talent is undeniable.

On the other side, Jane Froman is always the same. Not the worst voice, not the less talented woman in the world, not the ugliest girl, but always without any expression to show.

[finallysometruth]

Jane Powell Rocks!

[TheIcingOnTheCake]

I can't believe Elizabeth was just sixteen, when she filmed this!

She looks so beautiful here, and as she grew into a adult, she only got more beautiful. Lucky girl.

[TheIcingOnTheCake]

I love this movie. I love how old movies like this could tell a simple story like this one so well.

In this movie Scotty Beckett is too cute.

[stupididiot13]

jane auditioned for nightwish and is still waiting for the band to get back to her...

[crazylemon55]

Anna Moffo owns this song. All other attempts are inferior.

[mrjames9999]

apparently the film was made to show how beautiful Elizabeth Taylor was. She was sixteen and the film wanted to show how she had grown in to a young woman. i swear girls are becomign less mature now?

[stupididiot13]

liz was pretty but jane had talent AND looks...

[lonestar1]

OMG - the looks and glances between Elizabeth and Robert Stack!!! You knew exactly what they were thinking and what they wanted to do with each other!!!!! Thats the way to be sexy.........no need for smut and nudity!!!!!!!!!!

[TheIcingOnTheCake]

Haha that's the class and elegance of old movies for you. I love it too. It's nice how they could tell a story of love and romance without nudity or sex scenes.

[ccaammiiittoo1]

@lonestar1 Good observation!

[chunwun123]

@lonestar1 since elizebeth was born in 1932 and this movie was made in 1948 , she was on 16 . Good thing that Robert didnt do anything to her, he would have been branded a paedophile.

[cathyshofar]

When you refer to these wonderful singers as 'light coloratura sopranos' you must consider that the full impact of their voices are not evident in these movies, simply because the sound reproduction can not accommodate their full intensity.

This is accepted fact to anyone who works in recording studios.

These women, all excellent coloraturas were called just that because they had reached the epitome of their art.

[RRaquello]

is the guy conducting scotty beckett from the little rascals?

[GiveMeBlackandWhite]

Yes, it is. He was also the little boy in Cary Grant's "My Favorite Wife".

[seductress123]

Jane looks and sounds so adorable in this song!

Does anyone have the lyrics for this song please?

[seductress123]

no matter I've found the lyrics now =]

[Chiswick2]

Yeah, Elizabeth's beauty was at it's height during her teens. She matured really early, most girls at that age still have a childish look to them. Elizabeth looks like an adult here, which was good because it got her roles other girls her age looked too young for.

[Kismetico]

Sweet lovely Jane who is still a radiant ,classy lady ( her 80th is April 1 2009.)

Read her refreshingly honest book 'The Girl Next door and How She grew'(1988).

Her screen dad in this clip was that warm,cuddly guy in the tux,Wallace Beery.WRONG! Jane tells how disappointed she was to find a stingy,ungracious old man who liked to hog the camera in all his films.

Ah, the illusion of the silver sceen! ( Liz and the others were all fine by the way) .

[Zva26]

This is a great song, and a very difficult one. "A Date With Judy" was a fun film, with Jane Powell singing beautifully, and Elizabeth Taylor at age 15 looking already like the goddess she remained until around 1990.

[blondex21]

Elizabeth was only fifteen when she made this

she was in full bloom...!

[ciociosan19]

LIZ TAYLOR IS GEEEORGEOUS! She about steals the scene in the two short takes from Jane.

[nedland20]

One of the greatest songs of all time and one of the hardest to find. I finally found and purchased a CD of Kathryn Grayson's rendition and have it on my Live365 radio station, Golden Age Film Music. Thank you for appreciating and posting this great film clip.

[voltape]

I have Kathryn Grayson's LP which I bought back in 1953. I got to know then this beautiful tune. Only a few years ago I saw Jane also sang it. Funny, they two sang it in the same year 1948 in different films -Date with Judy (Jane) - The Kissing Bandit (Kathryn) with Frank Sinatra

[peanuts8]

such a pretty song, jane looks adorable and it's so funny cuz she's singing to robert stack and he's looking at elizabeth the whole time. see that's how it went, he liked the porcelain violet eyed doll instead! lol great movie tho!

[bisnagaboy]

anyone have the song Judalyne from A DATE WITH JUDY?

[nsz86]

Oh,my I've just discovered this song and I am totally in love! Could anyone help me find out where I can get a sheet music from this song? I tried it on the web,but unfortunately nothing!... Jane Powell,wonderful! She sings it with that passion, it needs,but still a young and playful girl. And that make this such an intersting interpretion. I wish,I could have met her when she was at that age! And I am totally amazed from the beauty of Taylor in that blue dress.

[cadesmal]

The song was written by Nacio Herb Brown and Earl Brent. I have the sheet music and sang this my senior year for music contest. I would imagine you can find a copy on Ebay.

[krazikatie180]

@cadesmal I saw that you said you have the sheet music.. I've searched everywhere for it, on Ebay, too. Do you have any other suggestions? Thank you!

[yaupaung36]

@krazikatie180 I have the sheet music and the words and I am singing this song in December at a recital. Do you want the music still?

[krazikatie180]

@yaupaung36 I actually tracked down the music from an obscure store in England, but I really appreciate you offering. I'm singing this piece for a jury.. good luck on your recital!! :)

[PostiguetAlbufereta]

La mirada entre la Taylor y Robert Stack es de lo más fuerte...

[updog88]

What is happening at this point in the film between Taylor and Stack? Those are somme mighty ferocious come-hither looks.

[songbirdwatcher]

She has a charming voice -- one of the most pleasing in this era of hollywood light coloratura sopranos (Grayson, Durbin, Foster, etc.). And Elizabeth Taylor looks amazing! One of th most beautiful woman in the world!

[briannvr]

great shot of Robert Stack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What happened to him?

[minniealice]

He Died Sadly in 2003 aged 84 after a long career

[dreygurl91]

Does anyone know where I can find the sheet music to this song?

[tonymaka]

Every Jane Powell movie should be released on DVD. Janie is an absolute angel!

[Juliaflo]

@tonymaka I second that. Props to Suzanne Burce, better known as Jane Powell.

[angelkitty2000]

@tonymaka jane is my great grandma but i don't care if u beileve me or not tho

[yaupaung36]

@angelkitty2000 I believe you. I got my first kiss during this movie when I was 14 at The Chum's Club in Hastings New Zealand. I am singing this song in a recital in December.

[rmaldrich]

Jane Powell did such a great job with this song. This is one of my favorite movies. For you fans, "A Date With Judy" is being released on dvd this month (Nov). I plan to purchase it and hope that enough people will do the same so that they will release all her other great films. rmaldrich

[Crazypom2]

For me,it says that the video is 2:23 long, but it stops at 46 seconds?

[Crazypom2]

I love Jane Powell.Beautiful voice

[cadesmal]

Song of the Open Road can be found on VHS from several dealers on the internet if you really want to see it. The song Carmena is just as good as this one especially since it is Jane's first film and she just blows you away when she sings it.

[aninalos]

I should add that her book The girl next door (I think it's called)reveals some very interesting info of her life

[mkrobinson95]

Yes, it's called "The Girl Next Door ...and How She Grew"

[aninalos]

Song of the Open Road has never been seen again and is the only film Jane ever made I have not seen. The Kissing bandit, incidentally, came out the same year as Date with Judy. I saw them both at the cinema every night for five nights and found it odd that both these beautiful and talented girls sang the same song and both wonderfully. The best two singers in Hollywood.

[cadesmal]

This song is one of the best showcases of a soprano voice. Another of Ms. Powell's best songs is Carmena, from her very first film "Song of The Open Road." If someone has this, please download it!

[Indigo1045]

Words by Earl K. Brent, music by Nacio Herb Brown, 1948

The Kissing Bandit (introduced by Kathryn Grayson), 1948

A Date with Judy (Jane Powell), 1948

[mauriciogabriele]

Sorry, but what is "The Kissing Bandit". Is it the waltz played before "Love is Where You Find It"? thanks

[Indigo1045]

"The Kissing Bandit" is an MGM movie from 1948. It starred Frank Sinatra, Kathryn Grayson, and "Love is Where you Find It" was sung by Kathryn Grayson.

[mauriciogabriele]

Nice. I have no idea about it. Thanks for the info.

[796824]

FANS OF Charlotte Church, should listen to Powell and learn how a real singer should sing.

[tonymaka]

A DATE WITH JUDY is one of my favourite movies. I love the way that Jane Powell creates the character of Judy Foster. Jane Powell is amazing in this film.

[mauriciogabriele]

Do you know who composed Love Is Where You Find it? I do love that song!

[yaupaung36]

@mauriciogabriele Lyrics by Earl K. Brent. Music by Nacio Herb Brown

[mauriciogabriele]

Essa muita é muito boa! Alguem sabe quem é o compositor
