Tommy Dorsey and his band have been engaged for Metros Ill Take Manila, with Eleanor Powell.
If they have any location filming to do I recommend they get it done sooner rather than later.
TCM has no clips or trailers for Dumbo, but they do for our other two features.
Youll Never Get Rich original trailer
When I first read the headline, I thought this had something to do with Obama supporters....
I remember during the sixties and seventies, “Dumbo” was BANNED because of Jim Crow.
I really loved the song that the crows sing, “When I see an elephant fly”. Great Lyrics!
Lyrics to When I See An Elephant Fly:
I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band,
I saw a needle that winked its eye.
But I think I will have seen everything
When I see an elephant fly.
I saw a front porch swing, heard a diamond ring,
I saw a polka-dot railroad tie.
But I think I will have seen everything
when I see an elephant fly.
I seen a clothes horse, he r’ar up and buck
And they tell me that a man made a vegetable truck
I didn’t see that, I only heard
But just to be sociable I’ll take your word
I heard a fireside chat, I saw a baseball bat
And I just laughed till I thought I’d die
But I’d be done see’n about everything
when I see an elephant fly.
Unfortunately for Tommy Dorsey’s Orchestra and Eleanor Powell, “I’ll Take Manila” is going to be recast in December and star The Imperial Japanese Army...
