  • The most beautiful woman of all matched with the finest singer who ever

    cut a record.

    Singenious to say the least!

  • Yeah, you might notice that Gene Tierney is 1,084 times more sexier in her police interrogation than Sharon Stone is in her famous twat-flashing outing. Michael wants to bang Sharon-who wouldn't?" But you fall in LOVE with Laura!

  • What CD is this recording of Laura on by Frank Sinatra. Great Vid! Love You Gene.

  • A jaw-droppingly beautiful woman. I loved her at first sight. Great editing job and suberb backing track by Mr Sinatra. Thanks for posting.

  • Im watching Laura on Tv now, Gene Tierney was soooo beautiful, so elegant and just divine. Her eyes really captivate me and Im only 25! lol. Its true Hollywood stars 2day, although there r sum beauties out there, they just dont quite have that same elegance and quality as the old Hollywood greats.

  • @RaikenXion I've got Laura on DVD and watched it often. I think it is an excellent film. The entire cast is very good. I enjoy Dana Andrews, Clinton Webb, Vincent Price and Judith Anderson very much in this film. All great at acting. No only do we not, I my humble opinion, find faces like Gene on screen today, the way many stars today talk is not as elegant as they did then. I even like that B horror film House of Wax just so I can listen to Vincent Price pronounce words in the English language.

  • @boblackey1 I agree, people were more honorable, even noble back then, they had proper values, the only thing I think was abit of a problem about those times was how popular smoking was back then (obviously people didnt fully understand or consider the dangers to health smoking could cause), and the fact alot of these great stars of that time smoked and even made it look cool to do so. Other than that I think those were simpler and in alot of ways better times.

  • @RaikenXion Go to the search box above and type in "camels doctors" and watch some old TV commericals which bost that MORE DOCTORS SMOKE CAMELS THAN ANY OTHER CIGARETTE:=). Well Gene herself was a lifelong smoker and died at age 70 from lung disease. Vincent Price, also a smoker most of his life, died of the same lung problem as Gene but somehow managed to live to be very old. He was 82. I like Vincent Price at the end of Michael Jackson's title cut THRILLER. The credits say "rap by V. Price".

  • @boblackey1 I will check that out. And yes indeed quite sad that alot of the old Hollywood greats died of some sort of cancer mostly due to smoking, i guess that was the "in thing" then, kinda like these times, social drinking seems to be the mainstream 2day, well especially where Im from atleast. Yes Vincent Price is cool in MJ's Thriller video, he does all the narration. I liked his role as the Inventor in Ed Scisscor Hands. Its sad that there arnt any Iconic figures around anymore.

  • Beautifully done, thank you!

  • A million girls ran out and bought cancer sticks to look glamorous just like Gene.

  • Best # 2 film noir classic. Follows the # 1 of all time: Double Indemnity

  • Not of this Earth.

  • What an exquisitely beautiful actress. She also seemed like a genuinely nice person also. They just don't come along very often for sure, and her movies encompass quite a great quality of her work. I think her films will always endure-because of her. There was so much more to that charisma than her great beauty.

  • i'm in love ..

  • The music, the movie, Gene Tierney all still send chills through me every time I hear the song, or see the film, thanks for posting.

  • I love this women.

    God did she have class........

  • what's that movie called at 0:59 dangit i don't know the name of it because i saw it half way through the movie on tv lol and i fell in with it :] she's an amazing actress

  • Those were the days....

    when beautiful people like Gene Tierney could be seen enjoying a cigarret....withou looking around for NON-SMOKING signs.

    What a beautiful movie and song.

    What a beautiful lady.

  • @VIRIATO1942 You know it. When government starts protecting you from yourself it all goes down hill.

  • Very nice! Maybe the best Gene Tierney video on youtube! Great Sinatra song and beautiful Gene...a match made in heaven! Thanks for uploading!

  • i guess you could say she's right up there with the best of them..... as far as beauty goes!!!! In the top 5, i would say!!!!

  • she was married to oleg cassini the dress designer.her first child was blind and death because gene caught german measles while at the uso , she supported her whole family with her earnings. the poor dear went crazy in the end, couldn't recall her lines. she was a wonderful beautiful person inside and out. hollywood really discovered her. she went on a tour of the studios as a teenager, and her beauty , they offered her a screentest on the spot! get the dvd its got two commentaries and more.

  • i love this woman too!!!!there is a great reason why i love women, they are so different from men, and if you get it right, oh sweet women. !!!!i get tired of seeing males, i don't look for them i look for the female scent. it is unique.LAURA!LAURA! LAURA!!!YUM!YUM!YUM!!!MAMMY WAMMY YAMMY...CRAAAAZZZZZZZY!!!!

  • I don´t understand the scene in 0:56 ... :)

  • I was named partly for the movie Laura & partly for my beautiful aunt.

    Watch the movie if you've never seen it before. You'll like it I promise!

  • Ringrazio un anziano signore elegantissimo, conosciuto per caso, che ha cantato questa canzone dedicandola alla mia figlioletta Laura.

  • beautiful...Sinatra and Gene...great combo!

  • Please forgive me if this was asked already. What movies is it at 1:10 and 1:16?

  • Leave her to heaven.

  • I am a girl, really love movies.. Wonder why there is noone like Gene in the movies today.. Her beauty is angelic, doesn`T matter if you are a boy or a girl, she does something to you. Today everything is about beeing sexy.. Gene Tierney was just pure beauty... Thanx Gene..

  • It seems, that you are right! But that type of an actress today is not possible any more! Look on the ordinary people! I doubt, that they want to see such a great person like Gene Tierney!

  • Anything that is a thing of beauty is to be admired regardless of who is admiring, if it be a rose,a person or indeed a scene of natural beauty, a persons beauty shines from within, Gene had both which made Gene all the more admirable, dont you think.....

  • Naturally I agree! You are right! This video recalls to me many sceens of memories of the past. It is admirable very much! Thanks of your message!

  • Yes, there is nothing not to agree! Your are right! Have a good day! Thank`s for your comment!

  • You have most likely guessed it, but I have been a fan of Genes' since I was a kid, have a nice day too...

  • I think Gene Tierney was very sexy.One of my friends saw Laura and he though she was hot.

  • Yes, but not in a slutty way... like many actresses today

  • You're right.She wasn't a sex symbol like Rita Hayworth or Marilyn Monroe but unless mens have gone blind she certainly could drawn them to her wether it was on or off screen.

  • Yes, we agree :) She was great!

  • @Jewmy Agreed! i FEEL THE SAME WAY. We girls today have no role models for beauty, style, class, and acting. They got the Tierney's, Leighs, Stanwycks, and we get Jennifer Anniston and Angelina Jolie. Life is  so unfair.

  • Minha deusa das deusas inigualável Gene Tierney!!!!!!!...

    Sempre fico em estado de deleite inefável com revejo suas impecáveis atuações em películas memoráveis!!!!... Afetuosíssimo e apaixonadíssimo abraço deste reles escrevinhador outonal e insulso professor primário, que é seu vassalo mor e fão ardoroso n° 1!!!!... Saudações Tienernyanas!!!!... Até breve, minha amada imortal!!!...

  • 1:13-1:14 sums up her remarkable beauty. pure class.

  • I do love this film.

    I think that American films are the best ever.

    There were so many beautiful talented people in Hollywood and so many wonderful films to watch.

    This film is magic, a perfect suspense. Beautifully done and acted, and Miss Tierney is very special, she was born to play Laura.

    Thank you for this great tribute.

  • Some times make me remember Diane Lane. But only sometimes

  • you really have no choice but to fall in love with her

  • She was Divine

  • beautiful!

  • Definitely one of the most beautiful women ever to appear on film! There are very few today who can even attempt to compare to her.

  • This woman was without question beautiful...1:16 captures beauty at it's highest and hypnotic form.

  • When God created woman he revelled,but when he created Gene he excelled,like a rosebud fresh,dew moistened delicate to the touch,fragrent,mysterious,thos­e eys captivating,hypnotic,

  • I LOVE THIS SONG! BEAUTIFUL video. Adding, to my faves, thanks!

  • Absolutely fuktabulous. Thanx for throwing this cip up. Gene Tierney was without a doubt one of the top 5 hottest stars in her decade.

    Wowza.........

  • Who sings this version??. I can't tell it from Damone or Sinatra..

  • Sinatra.

  • I wish I could find the still photo of Laura arriving at her cottage in her car. The print that Channel 13 occasionally shows doesn't have the scene, surprisingly. Considering the importance of when she arrived there and what she did over the weekend, etc., the deletion of the exotic roadster rolling up is odd. Is it a Bugatti? A Delahaye? It was a correct car for her!

  • great song--beautiful woman--super combination!!

  • I just finished monitoring and downloading 50 renditions of the theme song from Laura. From the haunting refrain, to Johnny Mercer's simple and silken lyrics, the song was adopted by all instrumentalists who desired to show off the emotional delicacy of their playing. This classic was recorded by Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Johnny Mathis, Charlie "Bird" Parker, Dexter Gordon, Yehudi Menuhin & Stéphane Grappelli, Errol Gardner, Oscar Peterson, George Shearing, Bill Evans, and others.

  • how can i download the same?

  • I use the monthly subscription services Napster and Scrubbu. Additionally, I use the free P2P (peer to peer) file sharing service, Limewire. Peace.

  • BRILLIANT!

  • LAURA HUNT!!!!!!!!

  • I Love it! I adore Gene Tierney and her Beauty! I know it's too early to say but..HAPPY BIRTHDAY GENE TIERNEY!

  • Usually those smoking scenes are so silly, but Vincent Price looks genuinely nonchalant in that scene. Like he's in his own living room. He was an underrated actor in many respects I thought. I'd like to have seen him do more dramatic roles, than being pigeonholed into all the horror genre roles. Great match of song to movie clip. Best Laura version ever. Thanks.

  • wilbubonzo: This most beautiful woman *ever*

    and great actress was, indeed, a bit of an "ice queen"! It was part of her mystique as so perfectly portrayed in this theme song & its lyrics!

    There were others in add'n to JFK - most notably, Howard Hughes, whose advances she rebuffed. She was married to Oleg Cassini (1941-1952)

  • If you haven't seen her in Leaver Her to Heaven, check that out. Talking about ice queens. The king of ice queens I tell ya.

  • oohyllab: Gawd YES! 'Leave Her to Heaven' was one her best! Simply *loved*

    to *hate* her in that performance.

    The 'stretch' Tierney made from her previous roles in "Laura" & "The Ghost & Mrs Muir" is what made her one of the best actresses ever! Simply proved that Gene Tierney wasn't just 'another beautiful face'! But - OH, what a *beautiful* face! The themesong,"Laura" *so* befits this amazing actress!

  • whthe: Great video of probably the most beautiful woman *ever*, Gene Tierney! Loved the clips from "Laura" & esp. those clips from "Leave Her To Heaven" (the most beautiful woman you love to hate). But, Ms Tierney 'had me' with "The Ghost And Mrs. Muir"!

    Thanks for posting this haunting melody & the trip down memory lane to over & over again enjoy this amazingly beautiful woman & the equally timeless theme song.

  • Never take this off please!!

  • thegoldenera: I'm SO with you! Never take this from us!

  • Love this song!It's so wonderful!

  • Magic,lovely video,thanks.

  • Some of those clips weren't actually Laura. She was so beautiful. Very good actress as well. Great post. Thanks.

  • She was a flawless beauty (and one of JFK's girlfriends) but there's something that's cold as ice about her. That is why roles like Laura and Leave Her To Heaven (as a murderess) suit her the best.

  • OMG!

  • adorable...

  • This is such a great movie. I am going to buy it one of these days. This is better than the song from the movie actually is.

  • Smashing!! This, and Rebecca are the only ones left I really want to buy anymore. I have so many classics. Thanks for the wonderful post, with this haunting version of the theme song. It's a shame this Sinatra song couldn't have really been in it somewhere, replacing the old repetitive song. Very effective!! Thanks.

  • Y que puedo decir era lo mejor.

  • she started smoking to lower her voice. she thought she sounded like minnie mouse...she paid the price later on, died of emphyzema. :(

    she's a work of art - simply beautiful. stunning woman.

  • You're hearing a young Sinatra from the 40's here, back then he was known as "The Voice". What a lovely reading from Frank with this haunting melody.

  • Was this song recorded for this movie, or just a coincidence? Franks' voice sounds a little different here! Gorgeous! Really cool movie. I just love it.

  • What's the movie during 0:46-0:56? She looks amazing.

  • It´s Joseph Von Sternberg´s "The Shanghai Gesture". The images from this movie are stunning!

  • Cool, thanks. Thanks for posting this video. I'm gonna start watching a whole bunch of Gene Tierney movies now :)

  • Keira Knightley and Michelle Pfeiffer are the modern day contenders... Thank you for intoducing her...she is beautifull

  • they don't compare with Gene at all.

  • Agreed.

  • TheProvanClan; I'm *so* with U re Gene Tierney being the very best! But, I gotta tell ya, I think 'robtaylorhelicopter had Michelle Pfeiffer spot on as prob the *only* actress of today that compares to Gene Tierney with true beauty! It's those eyes! It's the impeccable flawless skin & their God-gifted amazing bone structure!

  • Michelle Pfeiffer reminds me of her only in the bone structure but Gene is still prettier.

  • Tigerlily21: Wheuff! You're so right re Michelle Pfeiffer! Probably the 2nd most beautiful woman *ever*! Both were blessed with the greatest facial bone structure & captivating eyes. The only other would have 2/b Sophia Loren! Gene Tierney shall always remain #1 - probably due to music such as this, "Laura"!

  • sye is more beautiful than Marilyn Monroe Grace Kelly and Elizabeth Taylor to me!

  • My favorite movie since I'm 14 - she was the most beautiful actress and what a life ! Laura was the perfect movie, and I love Dana Andrews - it's good to find on the Internet other fans ! (ZANUCK was damn right)

  • Spent a whole hot summer watching Laura on VHS.. over and over and over again.

  • That's a lovely, well-edited tribute. Nice job. What glamour and untouchable beauty. You captured her mystery well the way you put this together. Cheers.

  • Gene Tierney is the greatest. I saw Laura when I was 7 years old. And later in life I saw Leave her To Heaven.

    the song lyrics are beautiful...but it doesn't do justice to the music or Gene herself. I much prefer the solo instrumental.

  • Looks like a cigarette ad.

  • It does! It's true. They didn't half used to puff away in the old movies.

    Nice collection of clips, anyway.

  • Wow! This song made the movie Laura.

    And how excellent!!! Ukbentley has soul. because UK is right. "the like of these will 'never' come again." How sad.

    Iron Isis/Metal Water's mom!

  • I named my oldest daughter after this song and movie. Gene Tierney was so beautiful, as I knew my little girl would be.

  • ein wunderschoener film und eine grosse schauspielerin!und diese musik!einmalig!

  • One of the most beautiful actresses of her time, along with Vivian Leigh, Grace Kelly, Lana Turner, Rita Hayworth and Marilyn Monroe.

  • Thank you for putting the clips and sound track together. You did this so well. Thank you, .. oh, thanks.

    I'm a second generation lover of Gene Tierney: but: pretty soon, we'll all be dead.

    But - no matter!!!

    We will "live-on" like Mr Carlyle and My Dickens and Dr Johnson -

    Thanks again - Thanks so much - Damian

  • 'Laura' has probably one of the most beautiful scores written for the movies. It was written by the great movie music composer David Raksin, who passed on recently. He was over 90 years old and still active.

  • Henry: Cornel Wilde just kissed Gene Tierney.

    Hawkeye: On the teeth?

    Trapper: Right smack on.

    Hawkeye: If he straightens out that overbite, I'll kill him!

  • He's right..Laura is the face in a misty light =]

    Because I'm special like that.

  • Nice tribute to a wonderful woman and gifted actress.

    Today we have no talents on the screen most times..

    They have no clue what a real star is..Gene Tierney was a Real STAR!

  • Sadly, she battled with lengthy bouts of deep depression. Treatment included electric shock treatment, and, much to the delight of locals I would imagine, working the counter of a department store. Imagine that, nipping into a shop and being served by Gene Tierney. Dreams are made of lesser stuff.

  • An all time favourite film of mine. Gene Tierney was just gorgeous. Alongside Sinatras faultless interpretation of such a beautiful piece of music, this is very very special. We can wait around, but the likes of these will never come again.

  • Gene was a gorgeous woman who was a hell of an actress! Hollywood actresses of today couldn't measure up to her!

  • I believe Vincent Price said something to the affect that when Gene Tierney came on the set he and other male actors could basically go home. All eyes were on her.

  • interesting how leading ladies of today cant measure up to the ladies of the past!!! thanks for posting this tierney was just wonderful and frank s singing a perfect match !!!!

  • Laura is one of those rare movies that will always be remembered with fondness and love.

  • Eccellente!

    Grazie
