Here's a favourite clip. Lawrence Gray and Marion Davies are just wonderful. This was the talkie debut for Marion Davies. Splendid!

  • You need to do a little more reading about Marion and WR. A true love story if there ever was one. His wife was also a show girl. You seem to be a nasty one. Since WR first saw Marion on the stage she was 15 and their relationship did not start until she was 18.

  • A lot of people forget that Marion Davies wasn't just a highly skilled impersonator, she was also quite adept in mimicking accents and altering her voice, which she would showcase throughout the '30s.

    As for the film Marianne, this was an extremely risky and daring performance from Marion because impersonating a French peasant girl during the World War 1 is a difficult feat, especially for your first talkie. However, her attempt is undeniably charming and for the most part she succeeds.

  • Wonderful - just wonderful!

  • I like the way when they do the song the second time, it's done in a different key to accommodate Ms. Davies; see if you can catch it!

  • This song has nothing stylistically to do with music done 11 years earlier though it's still a great song; Lester Young, in particular did it a lot.

    This clip is excellent; I hope the rest of the film is just as good.

  • This was funny! hahahaha luv the comedy between these two ;).... nice song

  • Wasn't Davies a cutie?... and even though Gray was no Gable or Cooper, he had a wonderful singing voice, no?

  • I like Marion in her silents and her early talkies, but by the mid 30s she looked bloated, overweight and ridiculously over-costumed.

  • is it Lawrence Gray singing or is he miming to a professional singer? historians say that there was allegedly no dubbing or anything in those days.

  • Had Pickford not been there to show the world how to act in front of a camera I'm sure Davies could have done it, but probably know one else.
