What a shame she has gone and we can't let her know how much we appreciated her performance. Yet life is such that people will leave us and we do not get the chance to tell them we appreciate them, because we assume there will always be time .
How different she looks in this film. She used an Oklahoman regionalism and she did her own singing as the speaking & sing match. This was certainly a departure from her other film work.
*Shirley Jones delivered a fine performance in "Elmer Gantry" and Gloria Grahame traveled off the beaten path a bit in one of the best episodes of the original "Outer Limits" TV series - in "The Guests".*
I don't believe any other lady could pull this song off like " Gloria Grahame" like " "Glynis Johns" and" Send in the Clown" the song was part of their personality they did not need to be professional singers. Gloria Grahame was perfect for "Ado Annie". She was usually a dramatic actress in " Film Noir" Films. Here she played comedy which is very hard because its unreal. Thomas Collopy.
This woulda been funnier if she sung sorta off-tune or clumsily. I believe she was like me and couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. 👍 P. S. I still found that clip 'charming' 🙂
She couldn’t. She was actually tone deaf. She could not sing a single note on key. In fact, her vocals here were her real voice- but the music editors had to piece it all together using individual words extracted from many takes.
There's stories about how the cast treated her badly and her time miserable, in the Oklahoma scene you see her break down and cry. It's sad when actors of your favorite musicals were miserable in what you assume was fun and a masterpiece to make. She was a scene stealer but I think that was rhe role vs the actress.
She is wonderful, but all the noir she’d been stuck in typecast her. Audiences and casting directors weren’t especially charmed, which is really unfair.
@@TeddyBear-ii4yc 😊😉 About her days in Liverpool, of course, there is the book: 'Film Stars Don't Die in Liverpool' and the movie starring Annette Bening.
In real life, Gloria was just a girl who couldn't say no to repeated facial cosmetic surgeries - not to mention she couldn't say no to her stepson, with whom she had an affair.

As far as I am concerned, this song is the highlight of the movie. Thank you, Gloria Grahame.
I agree.
Gloria Grahame Brilliant as ever! R.I.P.
Gloria Grahame was awesome in everything she did on screen!
Lordy, what a lovely babe was Gloria Grahame. Never forget her.
Even though she doesn’t do a big dance number here - she barely even moves at all - Gloria Grahame commands the screen with this performance.
Agree💯
In a movie packed with great songs this is one that puts a big smile on your face 😊
Gloria Grahame, what a peach. ❤
I just LOVE this song!!! Gloria Grahame was AWESOME!!!!
Film quality is brilliant compared to films of today.
Shot on negatives with thoughtful/careful lighting.
Gloria is another brilliant performer at the top of world.
She should of at least been nominated let alone win the Oscar for best supporting actress.
She had one
The Bad and the Beautiful. She won a well deserved Oscar
Between this and Its a Wonderful Life I just adore Gloria Grahame
Timeless beauty and talent
Oklahoma! is the best musical, EVER!

She's hilarious here. Love this scene

I thought she was great! Loved her in all the parts she played. Enjoyed her in the movie Oklahoma,especially her duet with Gene Nelson!!!
Quite charming 💐
Always loved this
Shirley Jones gorgeous 😍
What does she say at 1:06? I don't understand what's she is saying.
Did she say "Don't you feel kinda sure for a fellow when he looks like he wants to kiss you?" Please tell me.
Yes, if you see Shirley ask her to give me my heart back! 😘
She says sorry not sure.
She's stunning. I couldn't stop looking at her.
Estas escenas musicales son UNA MARAVILLA !!!😊
Gloria Grahame (1955 film) and Vicki Simon (98-99 London revival) are my 2 favorite Ado Annies!!!
This is the CinemaScope version, not Todd AO. Regardless, Gloria Grahame is fabulous in any aspect ratio.

I did not know that Gloria Grahame could sing R & H.
Hidden Talents.
She couldn’t. She was actually tone deaf. She could not sing a single note on key. In fact, her vocals here were her real voice- but the music editors had to piece it all together using individual words extracted from many takes.
She can’t! Lol

At 2:24, this is me: 😢😢😢

Well she did look like a... ?... a 'floosy'? But then she also looked like your average "young woman" such as in "The man who never was".
@@TeddyBear-ii4yc
A "floosie"?
Smile when you say that, partner....
@@mauricioduron3193
I did... I was... 🙂
I didn't know she'd lived in Liverpool like an "everyday" person... another reason to like her. 👍

Other girls are coy and hard to catch but other girls ain't having any fun.😂
Something funny about her mouth and lips. It's like she doesn't move them much.
Good catch!! Read my post. She put cotton inside because she didn’t like the way it looked.

Wow this is seriously horrible. Just read how she stole the role from Mamie Van Doren. Karma hits real good.
