My tribute to Jean Arthur (October 17, 1900 - June 19, 1991)
After a rather long hiatus from YouTube I am back with this feeble attempt at honouring one of my all time favourite actresses, Jean Arthur.
I chose to sing the Charles Aznavour / Herbert Kretzmer song "She", because I thought it was the perfect description of Miss Arthur - even though it's far from the perfect song for me to sing.
Anyway .. I hope you'll like the video :-)

I've used clips from the following films:

The Jean Arthur Show (1966)
Gunsmoke, Thursday's Child (1965)
A Foreign Affair (1948)
The Impatient Years (1944)
A Lady Takes a Chance (1943)
The More the Merrier (1943)
The Talk of the Town (1942)
The Devil and Miss Jones (1941)
Arizona (1940)
Too Many Husbands (1940)
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)
Only Angels Have Wings (1939)
You Can't Take It with You (1939)
Easy Living (1937)
History Is Made at Night (1937)
More Than a Secretary (1936)
Adventure in Manhattan (1936)
The Ex-Mrs. Bradford (1936)
Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936)
Public Hero #1 (1935)
The Whole Town's Talking (1935)
Whirlpool (1934)
The Gang Buster (1931)
Danger Lights (1930)
Street of Chance (1930)
The Saturday Night Kid (1929)
The Greene Murder Case (1929)

  • Well i think you did a fine job, jean is one of my fav's too and the two coupled together in the early morning w a cup of joe, a fire and the videos...it takese out of the humdrum norm of the coming days expectantcies.

    Great; keep them coming....

  • Kari does Karaoke. Beautiful.

  • Jean Arthur is one of my favorite actresses! Wish I could see all her films. Also, I liked your rendition of Charles Aznavour's song "She." It has been one of his songs that I have enjoyed since I first heard it.

  • I never get tired of listening to you, Kari!

    Just beautiful....

  • Oh, I'm so glad you made another tribute for one of the classic stars! And it's marvelous, exquisite and really heart-warming! Thank you!

  • There is nothing about this that I don't absolutely love. Perhaps the fact that it's only 3 minutes 12 seconds long. But what a great 3 minutes it is :)

  • I love Jean Arthur !!!

    She is a very good actress! One of my favorites!

  • Welcome back dear Kari, it's so good to hear from you again. You say that you did one take but my dear that's all you need to do. You have a wonderful voice this was perfectly done.

  • I missed you so. This was so beautiful, and you edit the video with so much love. Your cover of it seems to go perfectly with her. You have a tone and a way of singing that's really unique, but at the same time, your voice seems to belong perfectly in this old Hollywood world, with those legendary screen starts and movies. Your recordings are always so pure.

  • So nice to come on this morning and see you have posted!! This is truly lovely!! Adore your angelic voice! Beautiful tribute to Jean! I saw a movie with her in it just yesterday! Bravo!! *****
