  1. " Tra-La-La-La, what a merry world we live in,

    Tra-La-La-La, all of it is yours and mine;

    So wear a smile, sing a little while it's raining

    And through the clouds every little star will shine..."

     

    The song is "Tra La La La", composed by Harry Warren with lyrics by Mack Gordon, sung by Shirley Temple, Jack Oakie, and Charlotte Greenwood in the movie "Young People"(1940)...

  2. English-born stage and screen actor...Being a trained stage actor, Sheffield easily made the transition from silent movies to talkies. He was a working actor who became memorable in numerous character and supporting roles and appeared with some of the greatest movie stars of the day, including Constance Bennett, William Powell, George Arliss, Loretta Young, Gary Cooper, Errol Flynn, Rosalind Russell, Cary Grant and Joan Fontaine.

     

    In 1954, he began starring as Professor Mayberry in the television series Rocky Jones, Space Ranger. And after his son, Johnny Sheffield, appeared in his last jungle movie in 1955, Reginald created, produced and directed a pilot for a television series, Bantu, the Zebra Boy, but a sponsor was not found and the show was never produced as a weekly series.

     

    Sheffield acted in both versions of Cecil B. DeMille's The Buccaneer in (1938) and (1958), the latter being his last screen appearance.

     

    Reginald Sheffield died in Pacific Palisades, California, aged 56.

    Here's a song that was a big hit for Eddie Fisher. It was sung in two different movies, one of which starred Fred Astaire...The next line is the title of the song...Name the song, movies, and the composer and lyricist:

     

    "...When I fall asleep at night it seems

    You just tiptoe into all my dreams,

    So I think of no other one ever since I began

    ............ ....... ........."

  4. "Gigi" is right, Film. I didn't expect anyone to get it so soon. Here's another quip by her as she was teaching Gigi:

     

    "It doesn't matter who gives them as long as you never wear anything second rate. Wait for the first class jewels. Hold on to your ideals"..

     

    Your thread...and glad to have you aboard.
