Anita O'Day. Gene Krupa Story. Memories of You
Loading...
Uploaded by powenmoore on Dec 31, 2010
Bittersweet ballad sung in the "Gene Krupa Story" (© Columbia Pictures 1959) as love life of Gene Krupa (Sal Mineo) crumbles and he considers starting his own band. O'Day appears as herself, a lounge singer clearly seen, clearly heard, and identified by name. Permission to post is pending from Sony Corp., who bought Columbia TriStar. Here's hoping Sony rereleases the movie!

Just watched this movie on TV and I LOVED this scene. Rewound this song 3 times to watch it again. So I ran a search to see if this song was up on youtube and found your clip. Funny, as I was watching this scene in the movie, I wondered why they didn't show the singer more.It turns out, they edited it out of the version of the movie I just saw. To bad. So I especially appreciated your clip for that reason. It had face shots of Anita singing that were not in the movie I just watched. Thanks

Wow! I had heard bad things about this movie so I never had any interest in it. But this scene is amazing. Thanks for posting.

Really love this movie. Can you post just the opening credits, like from the Columbia Logo to the part where Mineo is walking down the street with he new drums?

@brandashusband Sorry no. It's really not convenient for me to digitize the analog files. I suggest you look for a copy of the VHS or DVD on eBay or YouTube or NetFlix, as I did. I have no interest in the movie. I am all about O'Day. Thanks for your interest though.

Does Anita sing another song in the movie??

Sadly, no. I wish she were featured more, but this was maybe all they could do with her, considering the liberties they were taking with history.

Thanks ! Is it the only appearence of Anita O'Day in this movie ?

Yes, the only one I noticed. Krupa consulted in the film making, so I will listen closely to the background music. Her cameo, however, is identified by her name in the chaptering of the DVD, out of print as of January 2011.
