Short scene from 1943 Cary Grant movie, "Mr. Lucky". Edwin August is one of the blood donors waiting with Cary and Laraine Day. Edwin is the older gentleman on the right of the screen and looks to his left and then to his right.
My most favorite Cary Grant movie. Shame Cary and Laraine never hooked up for real. They looked perfect for each other. Laraine was probably one of the most beautiful movie stars ever. Hope anyone can post the entire movie at once or piece by piece. Cary Grant fans the world over should know that this was one, if not his coolest movie ever, and see why.
@mombam I never knew that Mr. Grant was an accomplished whistler. Thank you.
I knew that he was an acrobat in his youth in music halls. I almost met Mr. Grant one evening when we were both appearing at an opening of Marshall Fields..he was there on behalf of Faberge. What a class act.
@tallpaul521 Thanks for the kind words. Grant was an inveterate whistler (as am I), he also whistles in "None But the Lonely Heart" - a film which Grant says was his favorite - which also was closest to his own/original personna - having come from that part of London. Regards,
@mombam You have sharp ears. The tune "Oh Give Me Something To Remember
You By" was the love theme for this film. It was also used as incindental music in the MGM classic 1953 musical, "The Band Wagon"...as hotel background music for Astaire...in several scenes.
i believe that this is the movie that laraine's husband leo durocher would show up to the set and create a fuss on her loves scenes. he was very jealous.
@garat4150 Your correct. I didnt like NBTLH, I preferred him to play the rich suave type
