MilesArcher Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 You got it, Azure. It was directed by Roger Vadim, Jane's husband at the time. Azure, you're up next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess of Tap Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 This southern gentleman directed them and bedded them. He often said that "pleasing" the leading lady was sometimes the only way to get the movie finished. He worked for several decades, but the movies he made in the forties were legendary. Can you name him and his leading ladies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilesArcher Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Thanks, Star. June Allyson was an understudy for Betty Hutton in a Broadway show before either of them became movie stars. Can you name that show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess of Tap Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Story has it that June Allyson was falling or tripping all over the stage just to be seen. And that's how she was discovered as a chorus girl. And it was Panama Hattie by Cole Porter. Miles, are you ready to shuffle off to Buffalo?

As far as Buffalo goes, I'll leave the shuffling to you. I'd rather follow that little robin and go Bob, Bob, Bobbin' along. Before we go anywhere, why don;t you post the next question?

Princess of Tap Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Let's stick with June - - In her first Broadway role, June met a mentor who was later to be very important in her Hollywood career. Who was he or she? What did this person have to do with June's first Broadway show? And why was this person important to June's Hollywood career?

Princess of Tap Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Hint-- June's first Broadway show was a musical. When she went to MGM, she made musicals. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Is it Charles Walters? He was one of the choreographers for Allyson's first Broadway musical Sing Out the News. He was also the dance director for Allyson's first full-length film Best Foot Forward, which was the film version of the musical that Allyson had starred in on Broadway. He also directed June Allyson in the movie Good News, which was the movie that established her as a star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess of Tap Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Azure, guess what else, good news was also Charles Walters first job as a director. It's what made his reputation, so that he went on to Direct Judy and Fred Astaire in Easter Parade.

Princess of Tap Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 This actor was a star in the late '50's and early '60's. He was always intimidated by the memory of his father, a great stage actor. He was nominated for an Academy Award,but it was his role in another film that made him world famous.
