Helen Kane & Jack Oakie in SWEETIE, 1929 - Part 2 of 3 - He's So Unusual and The Prep Step

Although there is already a very popular version of this clip already on YouTube, I've uploaded this one to include all of their dialogue at the beginning of the scene.


Helen Kane and Jack Oakie had incredible chemistry, and it is a real cinematic tragedy that their one movie, SWEETIE, was chopped up for television so that many of their scenes are now missing. (27 minutes appear to be missing from today's existing print. Existing publicity stills show what some of the scenes may have looked like.) A second movie co-starring them was planned, but cancelled because of the massive movie-musical cancellations in early 1931.

In this precious scene, the chemistry between them is very evident in the break between songs and during the dance
