William Holden and Kim Novak (from Picnic, 1955)

Also missing a dictionary, I notice.

Anyone who doesn't find this scene sexy is missing a chromosone or two.

then i'm definately missing a chromosome or two....

yeah man!!

no es una escena tonta, es una escena con profunda intension. Cuando la camara capta la tercera persona
uno se convierte en el cuarto espectador..................
observando la atraccion de la pareja......todo en ellos flota
porque estan a punto de perderse el uno en el otro
" no eres tu lo que amo, es mucho mas, es mi existencia
ella se me da a traves de ti"

dedico esto a Conchita Bouza ......de Luyano

Yes, Holden was miscast. But not that badly. Anyway, if this scene still gets to me, even after 50 years, then it must be a classic..."moonglow" AND the counterpoint to it included. By the way, see the film in the letterbox edition. It is wonderful.

Eso es glamour, swin y buen gusto! el paraíso debe ser algo parecido...

I love the look Kim gives him at the bottom of the steps: "So--what're you waiting for?"

Ridiculous, violins not syrupy but the georgeous conterpoint of the beautiful song Moonglow. Counterpoint melody titled Picnic--like the movie) written by the superb Steve Allen

Yes, Kim and William Holden are magic
