Ball of Fire. Such a great movie. A true comedy classic. Every part of this movie is a treat. Barbara is a feast of talent.

I absolutely LOVE professor Odly!!! "But I can't 'humf' from here!" hahaha!! SO cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe he was only 36 when he made this movie!! He really knew how to act!

[gregoryagogo]

@jdsmyhero85 Which professor are you talking about?

[jdsmyhero85]

@gregoryagogo Professor Oddly...The one doing the dancing in the beginning of theis clip. He was born in 1905 and the movie was made in 1941! I think that's crazy! :-D

[gregoryagogo]

@jdsmyhero85 Yeah... actually he's the most handsome of all of them too!

I love this scene.

[gregoryagogo]

I almost felt that her costuming for this movie was note best for her age by then... a bit over the top! I guess I see Barbara as "more mature" and that parts of her character here didn't seem intelligent enough!

@gregoryagogo She is playing a stripper and nightclub singer. The costuming is right for Sugarpuss O'Shea.

Cute. Forgot there was a conga in this movie. Also like the scene in the nightclub when she sings "Drum Boogie," and Coop blurts out "Boogie!" Have you checked out the conga in "The Fleet's In"? I think it's led by Dorothy Lamour. Was on a few weeks ago.

BOOGIE!
