  • Love itt <3 thanks for posting!!!

  • A friend told me about this movie...too cute :)

  • "Oooh .... I don't understand." Haha!!

  • the chinese guy looks so young in this who would have thought he was mr myogi in the karate kid though must admit his "bald head" is so fake looks like clingfilm. brilliant movie though!!!

  • This was just terrible.

    Firstly, it is not "supposed" racism and sexism; it *is* racism and sexism. Some lenience is expected due to the date, but we can call it for what it is today.

    Secondly, the lightheartedness surrounding the sex trafficking situation was really disconcerting.

    Thirdly, it just got wackier and wackier. Completely lost me.

    There were some great parts, particularly with Andrews and other actors for whom I have a favorable bias, but this makes me really, really sad.

  • @live830 I liked a lot of this on a scene-by-scene basis. But the racism sticks out horridly, and the ending is remarkably like something from the '80s: They all end up obscenely rich. No one really had to sacrifice anything after making their choices.

  • LMFAO WTF did i just watch LMFAO i love Julie

  • I'm a bit disappointed that the movie didn't end like the musical did. In the end, Dorothy was supposed to end up with Ching Ho. He fell for her and decided to save her from Mrs. Meers. Bun Foo was supposed to end up as a stenographer with Mr. Graydon once Millie found a job elsewhere. Then their mother is able to come over and reunite with her sons. >: The boys both turned on Mrs. Meers and helped her get arrested. Oh well, what can you do?

  • @FaithJ2 I do believe the movie was before the musical. Honestly, I like this ending much more than the musical's.

  • @nyuurocks Lol, yeah, I realized that shortly after I commented. ;;

  • I'm going to audition for my school's production of this play! This movie definitively gave me a little better perspective of the characters!!! Thanks for posting it!!!

  • did anyone notice "james" was the name of the actor as well?

  • boop oop de doo. - the 1 person who disliked this is clearly mrs meers...

  • boop oop de doo.

  • Oh goodness...Millie's wedding veil!

  • OMGOMGOMG i just can't thank you enough for posting the movie, you're a HERO!! I love julie andrews :)

  • It's a charming story AND disturbingly racist. Much like Tom Sawyer which, interestingly, is referenced in the movie. Enjoying the good in the movie need not involve ignoring its faults (especially since it was 1967, not 1922!). It's sad to think that Japanese American Pat Morita, who spent time in an detention camp as a child, would need to be cast as a Chinese Idiot-Villain to get work as an actor.

  • I really liked this movie! After Muzzy told Millie the story about the green glass, I was thinking "What if Jimmy was a millionaire too?" HAH! I was right! What a great movie! I wish they kept making movies like these! You don't seem them nearly as often as you should!

  • i love this movie... i knew jimmy was a millionaire but i never suspected that Dorothy his sister and muzzy his step mother....

  • Thank you so much for posting this! I hadn't seen my favorite musical in YEARS! And great quality to boot!

  • @TheXemoninjaX It looks like composer Jeanine Tesori and lyricist Dick Scanlan wrote a whole batch of new songs for the 2002 musical adaptation, while retaining a couple from the movie. So Gimmie Gimmie and others are actually "thoroughly more modern" than this film. ;)

  • @Showaholic i love the punnage....

  • This is possibly one of the most adorable movies I've ever seen... besides the whole opium-den-sex-slave thing, that is! I always find it extremely strange that they can take so dark a subject and make it somehow...lighthearted? Ah well. Julie Andrews is an absolute gem, and, yes, Muzzy is my hero, too!

  • i love this movie its so SWEET !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • Thanks for posting this movie. It was great!!

    To the Copyright Police: I just went and purchased my DVD copy of this film on Amazon after watching here and I'll bet many others did so too. Get a clue - YouTube is not your enemy/

    To the PC Police: if all you can do after watching this fine film is whine about supposed racism and sexism, go away, thanks for playing, you fail at life and the comprehension of comedy.

  • @sootikins That is exactly what I did. Therefore, it doesn't encourage lawlessness, it encourages business.

  • @ScarletPirate1 Yep. YouTube and other online methods are great for discovering new things. Free advertising for the entertainment industry. Even posting entire films is good for business IMO. YouTube serves its purpose but it's not a substitute for watching a DVD on mi bigscreen! :-D

  • Jimmy is so perfect, especially with those Harry Potter glasses of his.

  • i dont understaand why Miss Dorothy went and lived at that hotel..

  • @kelcikyle Muzzy sent her step-children, Jimmy and Dorothy, to go out in the real world (middle class lifestyle) to find people who will love them for not being rich. As Muzzy explains at the end the cow that get's SOY SAUCE on her dress was after Jimmy and every male fortune hunter in the hemisphere was after Dorothy. Muzzy wanted them to learn, like she did with her husband, is to marry for love, not money.

    So Dorothy packed her bags and moved into the middle class hotel. :)

  • she had a gun... she could've shot any of them at anytime! hahaha

  • oh that was so good!!!

    except when the ladys head popped off and did that sing-a-long thing at the end...like Micky mouse in those old kid movies. sorta creepy.

  • Love the bolas, that was wild

  • Millie and Jimmy are definitely going to have a much more interesting and fun life together than Miss Dorothy and Grayden! Muzzy is my hero!

  • What many of you don't realise is that this movie was made before what we would call "political corectness" was established. To the writers, what we might call "sexism" or "racism" was just a funny joke. Frankly, I think that shows back then were funnier than shows today because of that fact. It wasn't about plain stupidity or crudeness like today. You actually had to know culture to enjoy humor. barbarasprague and I, it seems, are on the same page. ^_^

  • @TheNewSailorMercury Uh, racism isn't defined by cultural context. Stereotypes and racist depictions of minorities aren't negated because they came from a less progressive time period. In fact, they only serve to show how uneducated people were back then. Depictions like this should be viewed as a product of their cultural context, but that doesn't excuse their prejudices any more than rape in the 20's would be excusable because we know more about gender equality today than we did back then.

  • @TheNewSailorMercury And I think you would benefit in really studying what we consider racist jokes and prejudiced depictions of minorities today (e.g. Family Guy) and really think about if they're any different than these jokes. If you want to talk about crudeness and poor taste, it's staring you right in the face, dolled up in the guise of "just a funny joke", the only difference now is that writers have the smoke screen of irony to use as an excuse.

  • I love Julie and Mary and the cast was superb but Carol really shone!

  • Thank you Very much for posting this movie! It's always one of my favorites. Carol Channing is Fabulous! Too bad a majority of the tv shows and most movies these days are crap! All people want today is "Strong Sexual Content", Cussing, and blood & guts galore!

  • great, up til the blatant sexism. :s

  • @cjmax02 How was it sexist? I didn't notice any sexist situations but racist yeah.

  • @loogle "I don't want to be your equal anymore, I want to be a woman: a dandy little bundle for a fellow to cuddle." Is that all women are good for? To be men's pets to "cuddle?"

  • @JulieAndrewsLover12 Oh at least hes not the fat guy from the original

  • oriental #1 and oriental #2 kicked ass :D

  • I don't want to be your equal any more. I WANT TO BE A WOMAN.

    hahahahahahh  :') I love sexism.

  • YAY

  • Ok who has seen the episode of Family Guy in which Carol Channing wins the restling match, this is where they got that from!!!! lol

  • I love this movie since I saw when I was 9 <3

    I'm a 14 year old girl and I love, and I always tried to look like her for Halloween, yet still trying to search for a right dressing, and everything ^_^

    Thank you for everything, U ROCK!!!

    P.S

    I always sing Throughly Modern Millie everyday when I walk to the streets and stuff like that xD

  • I've always wondered - why do the Chinaman's glasses break, but Jimmy's are just fine?

  • I loved this when we did it as a musical last year (our last musical with our awesome director before she got fired for absolutely no reason!!!), and I love the movie! I seriously wish we could do something like this again instead of what we're doing now - "1940's Radio Hour." It's so boring compared to Thoroughly Modern Millie!

  • @GavinRoskamp  After you do a great show the next season always stinks lol...We did Into the woods one year in college and the next Hello Dolly.

  • ohhhh i love the ending!!!! sigh !!if only it happens in the real world........

  • ha ha awesome ^_^ that was great 

  • I wonder why Julie Andrews got to keep her British accent while James Fox, who is brother to famed British actor Edward Fox, put on an American one.

  • @leananshae I was thinking the same thing.

  • This was a delight! thank you SO MUCH for uploading it in full

  • I love how they all get married at the end, even muzzy. "What do you teach again?" :P

  • "i dont want to be your equal anymore, i want to be your woman!" LOL.......

    the ending is cute when they are all married haha =)

  • im going to start going around saying RASBERRIESSSSS!

  • @HawkSong116 Raspberries,you mean... Don't forget your "p" ..........lol

    

  • LOL "I DONT WANT TO BE YOUR EQUAL ANYMORE I WANT TO BE YOUR WOMAN" :)

  • "ooooh no, i dont want to be your equal anymore, i want to be a woman! a dandy litte bundle for a woman to cuddle!"

    way to ruin a great musical.

  • @magspags999 and the sadest thing is that Julie Andrews said that!

  • I'd be scared of Carol Channing too

  • @Jessessweetestfan I don't exactly know what it is about her(channing) but I can't stand her.

  • more than 40 years later this movie is judged as a great old-fashionedmusical, but at the time it also killed both julie andrews and mary tyler moore's careers. it was a dud at the box office because it came out at a time the counter culture moving was making big steam and that's is where the youth was it. it wasn't until the success of SOB, in which julie bared her breasts, was she able to revive her career with a personality change.

  • @bigred997 This movie hardly marked the end of either of their careers. Mary Tyler Moore's career hit a high point AFTER this movie with the The Mary Tyler Moore Show! And Julie Andrews may not have starred in many musical films after this, but it was mainly because musicals were on the out as a genre as a whole - it didn't have anything to do with this movie. This movie made not have made much of an impact on their careers at the time, but it certainly didn't kill their careers! =)

  • @bigred997 "The film was nominated for seven Academy Awards and five Golden Globes. It was also one of the top grossing films of 1967" -Wikipedia

  • Poor Asian brothers. The heroes are hitting them, even their boss is hitting them...

  • What a great movie!!!! <333333

  • Now Mrs. Meers is going to be sold for cigarettes in prison

  • That was absolutly adorable! I loved this movie. Its funny cause I was expecting but then not that ending. So good.

  • when Julie Andrews says "You do have nice eyes" I'm thinking "he's got nothing on you."

  • thank you

  • GO MUZZY!!! haha!

  • Hi DrageReborn i enjoyed a lot with this fantastic movie thanks for upload :)

  • My Mother brought us to see this on a summer night at the grand Loew's Kings theater in Brooklyn, I must have been about 5 or 6. The few things that I remembered were the fireworks, Julie Andrew frequent stares into the camera, Bea Lillies head bouncing on the words, and alot of laughter from the audience !!

  • I think im in love with jimmy. lol

  • Haha that was a cute movie. I love Mary Tyler Moore she was adorable!

  • Thanks so much for posting this! I love Julie andrews! Was Swell ;D

  • Geez....when you see the stage musical this movie gets a bit more racist and when you listen to the last bit of the movie its horribly disempowering to women, I mean I dont know whats worse that Millie thinks she cant be happy being equal to men or that being a wife makes her automatically less than their equal...sigh...otherwise I love this movie

  • Thank ye, I love the film xD

  • POOK!!

  • So.... she wanted to be a stereotypical woman instead of an equal to men? I've gotta say, I love the movie and the actors and all, but the bottom-line moral of the story kinda threw me off =/

  • In the credits the names of the chinese are:

    Oriental 1

    on the words. thanks for posting, brings back nice memories

  • Family incest this film lol

  • cute

  • boo boo bee doop

  • Thank you SO much for putting this up! I thoroughly enjoyed it ;D

  • what were they thinking when they gave Julie that weird wedding hat!

  • Sad 2b all alone in the world!!!

  • There's one thing I don't understand:

    Dorothy is Jimmy's sister? But I thought she was an orphan!?

  • I think the story goes that Muzzy (their stepmother) sent them both out into the world having them pretending to be poor orphans so that they would find partners who loved them for who they are and not for their wealth.

  • Yes.

  • Well, she is, sort of. Her father and her real mother are both dead, but she lives with her stepmother and brother.

  • She lied. :D They all lied to Millie.

  • How can you NOT love Muzzy!?

    She's awesome

  • Does anybody know where you can purchase the movie on DVD??

  • @Cheddar222  amazon.com

  • the fight was pretty silly but I like the movie is quite fun and I'm glad Millie end up with Jimmy! :)

  • that was sooo cute!

  • thank you so much for posting the movie :)

  • O.O

    Wow. That was strange. But it was fun!

  • lol, Jimmy is nothing if he isn't a regular prankster!

  • Philip Ahn, Jack Soo, Pat Morita, all excellent Chinese actors in their own right, too bad they had to play moronic stereo typical stooges in those days. grrrrrrrrrr

  • I felt like I could enjoy Jack Soo's little comedic things like the elevator dancing and the dancing after that more enjoyable because I had seen him do bigger comedic roles such as one of the police officers in Barney Miller.

  • @hell0hkitty Philip Ahn is a Korean-American whose father was a Korean revolutionary leader who fought against the Japanese Empire.

  • Haven't seen this in years. Still is great. All are wonderful. James Fox is a Brit! Good accent. MTM should have had a big film career, but she didn't do TOO badly on TV. This was made 2-3 years after Channing had her biggest hit in Hello, Dolly. Julie--effortlessly luminous, with the voice of an angel and flawless diction, just adorable. All her life, my sister either wanted Julie's voice or perfect teeth. Thanks for sharing your films with new audiences and old fans. I've subscribed.

  • Wow! That was a great movie!

  • Julie's leading man looks like Friedrich from the sound of music.

  • Haha -- I see it.

  • I don't know what the fuck language Mrs. Meer was speaking, but that sure as hell wasn't Cantonese/Mandarin. I mean, it's a great movie, and I know that in the late 60's Asian actors had to settle for roles seen here, but COME ON! You have a whole China Town full of Chinese people to tell the screenwriter accurate expressions to add into the dialogue, not overused crap phrases like "Shoo sho"

  • I have to add, I did thoroughly enjoy this movie! It was hilarious and I have "Tapioca" stuck in my head, but I'm just a little ticked off at how ignorant Hollywood was (and still is, really...) about other cultures. They had the means and money to be accurate, that's all.

  • Thanks so much! I finally got to see the whole movie! What a riot!

  • razzzzzberries!!!!

  • "Esas son las bolas senora!" lol

    Thanks for posting this wonderful movie! It's so much fun to watch :D

  • That ending I did not expect, but it was simply fantastic!! I loved it! Thanks sooo much for uploading this movie!! I love Julie Andrews!!! I love all of Julie Andrews movies!

  • that was a major twist

    i just loved mary tyler moore in this

  • What the fuck!? She can't be his equal AND a woman???? That stupid line just ruined that whole movie for me! I am disappoint, Julie Andrews!

  • Yeah that line set me off too. 1920's was supposed to be a good decade for the movement of equal rights and feminism!

  • don't blame her, she didn't write the script!

  • @redgirlinbluedresses I think what she means is she's tired of trying to be a man. (The kind of girl that gets called John). She wants to try to be herself instead of 'a modern'.

  • awesome thanks for uploading best movie ever!
