I was 16 when I saw this movie in 1956 and was quite overcome. I thought then that Kim Novak was quite the most beautiful and sensuous woman I had ever seen. I still think that.
Thanks for posting some memorable moments from a great film. Even though William Holden was of my mothers generation I can still look at him today and he takes my breath away. I had an intense love like the 2 in the film. He flew back home. Shortly after, I took a train back to be with him.
The way they dance to Moon glow brought back memories of what it was like falling in love, the touch, the looks, sigh! Yeah, I fell in love with him on the dance floor too.

This is an awesome video. Great job. Holden and Novak exuded sex appeal in the Moonglow dance scene. She was a real beauty...and still is at age 75. Wonderfully romantic movie. Why don't they make them like this anymore? Awesome montage Katie. I saw it for the first time when I was 12 with my dad, and I remember him telling me that "Czech" girls (both of Kim's parents were of Czech origin) were the most beautiful girls in the world. After all these years I realized he was spot on!
Love it i hope you will keep this on forever..She is so beautifull and that dance i will never forget all my life. She still looks beautifull today and i hope she gets credit for all her movies thta she derserved.
I still wach thisI i love it.They were so great together and that dance i will never forget it..the music you put in was great.Novak was beautifull and i watched all her movies after seeing that.God bless you kim Novak you were apart of my life when i was so great full to watch your movies you made me forget all my troubles..
@TheDiscomom71 Thank you so much for your kind words about my video & about Kim Novak! :)
I am very touched by your praise & I am so glad you enjoyed my video!
Kim & William were great in this movie & the dance scene has to be one of the most romantic scenes ever!
Kim is very beautiful & I am glad that watching her movies has helped you through some tough times in your life..that's what I love about movies too is the escape.
@irish89055 I appreciate your opinion but I disagree I love the music I used & I think it works great in this video but I know not everyone is gonna like it so I appreciate the feedback.
@BadZKarma99 bad karma.....hmmm He'd never had made freight moving that fast, in fact love how they showed Bill hopping a stationary train.. though i've always liked the ending... and it's original music...
I watched this movie at Andrews Air Force Base in the mess hall in 1956 as I waited for the Air Force to fly this Navy man to Puerto Rico. From there, i'd be flown to Antigua in the then BWI. Eighteen and feeling footloose and glad to be free of my hometown, I identified with Hal Carter as I set in the dark, enjoying a cup of coffee and sucking on my Luckies. Tonight, I showed this movie to my wife who wouldn't be born until 1960. It was a thrill, the usual nostalgic tears.
@bopteebop I was on an Air Force Base about the same time. I was in the National Guard and at this base for a two week tour. It was boring as hell. The only thing you could do was drink beer in the PX, get drunk and wind up sleeping in somebody else's bunk by mistake. Get into a fist fight over it and wake up in you own bunk, wondering why your face was swollen and your head hurt.
@bopteebop Thank you so much for sharing your memories of watching this movie when you were in the Navy & of sharing it with your wife. I think it's great when we can share special times like that with someone we love. I hope your wife enjoyed the movie.
C'est tellement "bon" ! i n'y a pas de mot pour dire je t'aime , le silence, la danse, les regards, la musique ! j'aimerai voir ce film sur les écrans télé en france ...j'avais 9 ans en 55 !
I had the great fortune of meeting Daniel Taradash back in 1991,during a Film Festival in Spain. A legend of screen-writing (he was the writer of Oscar-winning 'From Here to Eternity' as well). Excellent conversation with him, remembering the golden age of Hollywood... I am proud of this memory, and seeing images of this movie makes me share it with you all.
Bless you, Mr. Taradash. I wish nowadays' film writing still had the quality of those times!
@ismaelrionda Thanks for sharing your memories of Mr.Taradash & the Golden age of Hollywood!! I enjoyed reading your comments & I'm sure many others will too!! I agree with you about the quality of the films back then..they just don't make movies like that now..sad. :(
@BadZKarma99 You are very welcome. Thanks to you for uploading this beautiful music and the different scenes from the film.
The day I can use a time machine, I will travel to the year 1949. I will then stay and live throughout the wonderful 1950's, enjoying their music, films and overall atmosphere. If I ever get to do this, "Moonglow" will be my soundtrack, accompanying me wherever I go.
@ismaelrionda It would be nice to have a time machine..I think we all have a time period we would love to visit or live in..I love the 40's-60's..I would love to be able to visit that time period. I agree with you the 50's was a magical time & Moonglow would be a very nice song to accompany you if you were able to go.
Thank you so much for your kind comments about my video!! :)
@leudrerrep I was surprised too that noone commented but I figured it was probably because the movie is not that well known but whatever the reason I am honored to have you be the first to comment!
The editing was a little tricky because I'm a perfectionist & the reason it looks so fresh is because I found the movie at YT & used that footage..if I had used my old tape footage it would have been very poor quailty.
