South Pacific - Happy Talk ( Original Movie)

Taken from the movie version.Music was written by Richard Rodgers, the lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II.

It was sung by Bloody Mary to her daughter, Liat, about having a happy life.

South Pacific was shot in the Hawaiian Islands, with shots of the tropical Tioman Island off Malaysia's south east coast.

In June 1982, The Damned's guitarist Captain Sensible scored a #1 single on the UK singles chart for two weeks with his version of the song.

if you watch this out of context to the whole movie, this is the weirdest thing ever.

Something about that young gal.

She's got the look.

I think I'd go AWOL and to hell with war -

While I think this movie is a real classic (even though a bit overblown in it's production) I always thought John Kerr was a very odd selection to play the part of Lt. Cable. Would love to know the story behind his selection for the part.

The whole Joe Cable/Liat affair just makes me cringe. Joe Cable is a completely unlikeable, wooden character as portrayed by John Kerr (and looking particularly horny in this scene), it goes to show how far cultural values have changed since the late 40's. Nowadays, Liat's age, not the shape of her eyes, would be the fearsome factor in bringing her back to Philadelphia. Not sorry he died in the least. Creeper.
