Movie Clip

Las Vegas Story, The (1952) -- (Movie Clip) I Get Along Without You Very Well Jane Russell as ex-Las Vegas songbird Linda explores her old haunts, with nice location footage, dropping in at her old club, where Hoagy Carmichael is still at the piano, flashing-back on her old song, his famous composition, ex-flame Victor Mature included, in The Las Vegas Story, 1952.
Topper (1937) -- (Movie Clip) Old Man Moon From the opening sequence, affluent George and Marion (Cary Grant, Constance Bennett) go night-clubbing before his morning bank-board meeting, finishing at a joint where they’re on first names with Hoagy Carmichael himself, joining him in an original tune, in the Hal Roach comedy Topper 1937.
Las Vegas Story, The (1952) -- (Movie Clip) Clark County, Nevada Hoagy Carmichael narrates as musician Happy, introducing the town, himself, Jane Russell and briefly Victor Mature in their roles, then Vincent Price appears as her husband, opening The Las Vegas Story, 1952, from RKO, director Robert Stevenson and Vegas-invested studio boss Howard Hughes.
College Swing (1938) -- (Movie Clip) Title Song (Betty Grable) Just the third scene and not essential to the narrative, at what must be the dining hall, an original tune for Paramount by Frank Loesser and Hoagy Carmichael finds Skinnay Ennis launching a duet with Betty Grable, who switches to Jackie Coogan for the dance, choreography by LeRoy Prinz, Raoul Walsh directing, in College Swing, 1938, starring George Burns, Gracie Allen and Bob Hope.
To Have And Have Not (1944) -- (Movie Clip) A Stray Bullet In French Martinique, boat captain Harry (Humphrey Bogart), with would-be thief Marie (Lauren Bacall), is making his deadbeat client pay up when Nazi-backed goons come after Frenchy (Marcel Dalio) and comrades, Capitane Renarde (Dan Seymour) mopping up, in To Have And Have Not, 1944.
Young Man With A Horn (1950) -- (Movie Clip) No Jam Session Rick (Kirk Douglas) meets narrator Smoke (Hoagy Carmichael), at the old Aragon ballroom in Santa Monica, joined by new boss Chandler (Walter Reed) and singer Jo (Doris Day), in Young Man With A Horn, 1950, song by Ray Noble, directed by Michael Curtiz.
Johnny Angel (1946) -- (Movie Clip) Memphis In June Angel (George Raft) and Paulette (Signe Hasso) have just reconciled in the murder-mystery plot, thus the occasion for his driver, the philosophical Celestial O'Brien (Hoagy Carmichael) to offer what was then a new song, his tune with lyrics by Paul Francis Webster, in Johnny Angel, 1946.Johnny Angel, 1946.
Johnny Angel (1946) -- (Movie Clip) The Girls Here Don't Usually Refuse Looking for a gal connected to the killing of his father, also a New Orleans ships’ captain, Angel (George Raft) meets cabbie “Celestial,” (Hoagy Carmichael), skips one offer (from Chili Williams, best known as the pin-up Polka-Dot Girl) then grabs the unwilling Signe Hasso for a dance, in Johnny Angel, 1946.
To Have and Have Not (1944) -- (Movie Clip) He's A Funny Guy Crickett (Hoagy Carmichael) and Marie (Lauren Bacall) are dabbling with Hoagy's composition "How Little We Know," when Harry (Humphrey Bogart) drops into the cafe in Martinique, with a ticket for her to go home, in Howard Hawks' To Have And Have Not, 1944.
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953) -- (Movie Clip) Anyone Here For Love Arguably more provocative than any of co-star Marilyn Monroe's numbers, Jane Russell as Dorothy at the ship's pool with the "Olympic Team," tune by Hoagy Carmichael and Harold Adamson, dance direction by Jack Cole, in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, 1953.
To Have And Have Not (1944) -- (Movie Clip) Am I Blue? In a Martinique cafe, boat captain Harry (Humphrey Bogart) is wise to what newcomer Lauren Bacall is up to with his client (Walter Sande), as she joins Crickett (Hoagy Carmichael) for a tune by Harry Akes and Grant Clarke, early in Howard Hawks' To Have And Have Not , 1944.
Mr. Bug Goes To Town (1941) -- (Movie Clip) Katy Did, Katy Didn't Hoppity (voiced by Stan Freed) and Honey (by Pauline Loth) are on a date, pursued by Swat and Smack, but mainly to set-up the first song, by Hoagy Carmichael and Frank Loesser, the “Four Marshals” the credited singers, in the Fleischer brothers’ feature Mr. Bug Goes To Town, 1941.
