@windstorm1000 Ah, those Italians. When I was in Italy I found out that it's a common practice over there! I wouldn't hold that against Pinza. In other words, it wasn't unusual for his upbringing, but we Americans find it a little shocking.

Love how he grunts in a high pitch to hide his basso voice.

@msmunkietime I completly agree with you--WML is total class and great fun--much better than today's skanky game/reality/cop/lawyer or other shows. I watch it all the time on YT--its my no. 1 choice--and I'm sure it is for many other folks. I love it when the panelists get stumped--which isn't often--the tension is delicious. Ezio Pinza--great guest and fabulous talent.

This clip has all of the characteristics of WML: great manners, lovely clothing, Daly's clarifications (done to help the panelists despite their claims otherwise), Arlene's and Steve's witty remarks, multiple conferences, great questioning, chastizing from John for disucssing the identity, and Arlene's plea for some entertainment. Great WML clip. Thanks.

What a great video, thanks!

He, Joan Sutherland, and Frank Sinatra had (have) the most magnetic smiles I've ever seen!

@9TheMajor Pinza was not in the movie at all. it was made a year after he died. Pinza starred in the broadway play and became a huge hit for his portrayal of Emile DeBecque years before the movie. Rossano Brazzi did it for the film and Giorgio Tozzi dubbed the singing.

look at the relative size of Pinza and Daley's heads at about 1:37. that's where all the resonance came from

He lost his looks after the movie.
