You Stepped out of a Dream - Ziegfeld Girl (1941)

[Handiman544]

It was a simpler time, an innocent time. Men were taught to respect themselves and women. Today there is no respect for anything or anyone. Women are partly responsible for this. They have allowed themselves to be exploited.

I am 71yrs. old and I lived this era. In those days women were placed on a pedestal. Even today we have beautiful women in any neighborhood, but they don't realize how beautiful they are because men have a crude estimate of women. So very unfair. Everyday I see beautiful young ladies, but they will never know that they are. Today, most women have no self esteem. Times have really changed. But have they changed for the better or worse? Personally, I don't think it is for the better. Am I wrong?

A great plot-enhancing number, because it is the only time in the film the three girls of the film's title perform together: black-haired Hedy (white dress), auburn Judy (Christmas tinsel), and strawberry blond Lana (last one descending stairs). This is their opening night as new Ziegfeld contractors. And Eve Arden is an awesome surprise at 4:51- balancing floor-length ostrich-feather muffs. I'll bet each of those gowns weighed about 60 pounds each!!

Wow, that was fantastic!

When I was a kid, I never really heard Tony Martin in his prime, so his magnificent voice was under appreciated by me. I'm only 68 so us kids didn't know what's good, lol, just like kids today. It's funny, now that I'm older, & thank God for Youtube, the most important communicative site in the entire Internet; and a veritable time machine, I love it, I love it.

Thank you very much for posting a magnificent piece of musical presentation, with Judy and Hedy, wow.

I actually came here because of Tony Martin......... Christmas day he is 99 years young. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR TONY and thank you for the moments of joy in your music.

This was one of the great production numbers of all Hollywood history. I have seen this film perhaps 40 times and never tire of it, other than I always wish I could change Lana Turner's fate. Lol! However, I know beauty is subjective and there are many types of beauty..... but ever time I see Hedy in this scene my heart stops. If I had been a woman at that time I would never have wanted to stand near Hedy because everything pales next to her. Thank you for this.

imagine this in color

[darlinkula1]

I liked it that Hedy did not show her teeth when she smiled because it somehow looked classy. Hedy Lamar was was named after the silent film star Barbara Lamar who was the first successful actress to die of a drug overdose. Lana Turner & Hedy Lamar are just breathtakingly beautiful in this clip THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS !

What ever happened to the days of class, beauty and glamour?

[teruel82]

I don't like this, I LOVE IT!!! Gorgeous song!!

[bbcisrubbish]

Isn't nice to see women with figures as women should have. Those skinny gutted freaks of today look like, yes, skinny gutted freaks.

HEDY :P

Mid-20th Century entertainment at its best! it has never gotten better.Judy Garland fat, take a look around at people today - lol. Today its all course, crass and common. Entertainment today is like the Cole Porter song Anything Goes, "Good authors too who once knew better words, Now only use four letter words ".

[coracleman]

the Ziegfield girl wore these fantastic (and I mean, in the real sense) costumes and made them look elegant. They worked hard and never got the credit. Turner and Lamarr are gorgeous and exotic. Judy Garland isn't fat ,she's pretty and talented. Name one like her in Hollywood today.

Most of these women were so beautiful !!!

Classicale beauty is the best kind og beauty

As they say "A classic never goes out of style"

[MovieMusicFun1]

really, mindless dreck.? I think Tony Martin is a pretty good singer. not over the top. Judy isnt fat she looks pretty here . Lana and Hedy were gorgeous facially, and the first girl is pretty, but I dont think all the other girls are stunning. Better than dogs of now like Anniston witherspoon,but otherwise, average looking.Lucy actually was in a scene in Zeigfeld follies. she looked out of place was doming some chix

[helenajesstarzak]

@MovieMusicFun1

You really think that Reese Witherspoon is ugly?

I get what you mean about Jennifer Aniston thought...

[marcusaurelius80]

What mindless dreck Hollywood used to churn out (and still does)! Not only is the crooner over the top and annoying, but the girls are almost uniformly unattractive. Judy Garland is fat! Only Hedy Lamarr seems to transcend those ridiculous costumes. On the old I Love Lucy Show, Lucille Ball did a hilarious spoof of those old Busby Berkeley musicals, headdresses and all!

[deoneill12]

@marcusaurelius80 Lucille Ball was an actual Zigfield Girl back in the 20's.

[VictoriaRu29]

How awesome to be my Mom, or any WWII lady ! They had the REAL MEN !!

[VictoriaRu29]

Why do men think this is so true for them, but not for us women......

[romantic2543]

I'm not too keen on this movie, but I've got to admit that this song is MAGICAL. <3

[KuklaVoskovaya]

Имхо, Лана лучшая :)

[theblueangel28]

[theblueangel28]
