It's very different from the written version but has it's own charm which I must say is completely due to F.Astaire's presence...and I love their dance at the end and sluefoot..they dance without holding hands and almost gliding... very captivating!!
After "Something's Gotta Give," this is my favorite part of the film. It has the gentlest, most understated happy ending- for not one, but two couples- done completely to the strains of "Dream." Lovely.
The age thing is ok because he has danced with every great female dancer. The dances I love the best are with all the variety of women, Cyd Charise has some beautiful dances with Fred. And the early dances with Ginger Rogers. I have a lot pf his movies on CD. Great performer.
It is never okay for a man to be romantically involved a girl he is taking care of as their guardian. Why do people think everything and anything is okay?
His smile! Omg ! Im in Love with him…so charming and all the delicacy… id like to be in his arms and feel exactly what i see… My dream … so far from our world… no more dream…no poesy no delicacy…hopefully we have these movie…. Thank you to share with us…
Why would you want real life to be like this. He was taking of her as a father-like figure, but he decided that he was interested in her in a romantic way. Nobody's real life should be that way. If this happened to you or anyone else, it would be sad in real life. Parents need to take care of their kids, not sleep with them.
@@Michelle-pn9xt obviously the age gap was strange but don’t put a weird light on it, that’s just how things were in the movies back then even if they’re weird and don’t make sense
truly one of my favorite Astaire Movies ..Somethings Gotta Give did it for me right from the start..Great cast .Brilliant talent.. Leslie Caron,,fit him to a tee... Aw those were movies to love..thanks so much
YOU know it's been said Fred Astair was paired with beautiful co-stars. They gave him sex appeal; he gave them class. I couldn't have agreed more with that statement. Mr Astair was not a good-looking man by any stretch, yet woman fell in love with him when watching his movies. My dad when I was growing up use to call him "Liquid Velvet" his dancing was so smooth so fluid. From top to bottom not a hair or a toe nail out of place when he was dancing. He was absolute perfection and made it all look so easy when in fact it was very difficult. Dad believed there wasn't a soul on earth that could dance better than Fred Astair. NO ONE!
i think it's when she recognizes his face on the paintings and realizes he's the owner of the house because the lady told her that 'daddy long legs' lived there.
Although I'm a big Gene Kelly fan, I must say that I'm pleasantly surprised how Caron & Astaire carried this movie. I see Astaire in a different light now, in terms of his acting. One thing remains obvious is that Astaire was such a gentleman & showed elegance in his dancing and demeanor. Kelly, when called for it, could do the same but he RARELY tried to be elegant in his dancing. He focused on athletics/energy & related them to the story. Anyway, thanks for posting; this was hella cool!
I've watched this movie so much that I don't cry no more, but I know that is about to change today, thank you so very much for the wonderful evenings I've had watching your channel, well here comes the tears, boo, hoo, hoo.
swoon! Something's gotta Give and Dream did something for Fred, I don't know what but that's the first time I've thought "sexy" when it comes to him. Awesome movie, thanks for uploading.
Such a wonderfully made and acted movie. Sensitive in nature, eloquent in timing and such a romantic film. Leslie Caron is my life long crush and is still beautiful and charming today.
Even though the movie's story is completely different from the original (and more daring, I'd say, which is not necessarily a bad thing; only Julie may be a TEENY bit too much of a coquette to me...), it has such undoubtable magic to it. An entirely different kind of magic, but-beautiful. And it's full just of what I cannot resist and what makes me happy! I don't wanna let myself go analysing it, as a screening nor on its own... Just thank You, FallingRain, for the great movie! :)
Even though the age gap between the two of them is somewhat big but still, this film is one of the best that I've ever seen. Btw, thanks for the upload :)
Thank you for the upload. Came here after watching the Japanese version of daddy long legs anime. The anime and real action movie had different charm and humor🥰. I enjoyed both of them. I'm glad that I have the opportunity to watch this old but gold movie.
I like it because this movie is both elegant and bluesy. The only parts of the movie that I think should have been changed are the dream sequences. It does capture the romantisism of alot of women's secret hearts.
This is one of my top ten movies of all time and Leslie Caron is my very favorite actress. I love Fred Astaire as well but in the realm of dancing, the man had NOTHING on my father. (But of course, I might be a little biased. 😉)
I have this movie and watch it. Instead of watching it on the dvd I,ll go and watch it on UA-cam or on another site for free and save on the dvd machine.
@Musicalandmore : Only a true non-romantic could not appreciate the guy getting the girl in the end. And you have to consider this movie within the time period it was made.
I have been in love with Fred Astaire since forever. This is my favorite movie.
god those final lines are so smooth...and then they go twirling off together, it’s almost better than a kiss
Astaire's acting was finer than most people think, as his wife died during filming---and he kept on going, sometimes in tears between scenes.

Love this movie. First watched when I was 20 and single wishing I had a "Guardian." Always loved the idea of falling in love with an older man.
Oh why isn't real life just like these old movies?!
Rita Ferreira I've got the same question.
Why would you want real life to be like this. He was taking of her as a father-like figure, but he decided that he was interested in her in a romantic way. Nobody's real life should be that way. If this happened to you or anyone else, it would be sad in real life. Parents need to take care of their kids, not sleep with them.

Dramatic irony at its best. What a superb blend of dancing and music. Dream along !

How can you not?
Lovely Movie! Thank you for the upload.

Awww what a good movie :)
back then Hollywood they to be really successful you needed to know how to Dance , Sing and Act ,, a triple threat is what it was called
They never kissed until the very end.
Favola a lieto fine con una splendida canzone (something's got to give)
thank you
Oooohh! The book was better, of course, but this was so well done! I loved every minute! And I'm pretty sure I was born in the wrong time period...
so this is where the notion of 'daddy-sugar' has started....
great movie indeeeed
La película más linda 😍
I most certainly did!
Yup I enjoyed that thanks :D
@Musicalandmore : Only a true non-romantic could not appreciate the guy getting the girl in the end. And you have to consider this movie within the time period it was made.
Do you think there's any possible way you could get a hold of the 1931 version?
Dawww I squeeed so mush at the end XD
I love this movie but I just gotta point-out that he was 32 years older than her.
the olden year equivilent of twerkin
It wasn't on TV? The cable channel TCM plays it again and again
.
Bravo muito bom.
That’s not in Cinemascope!!! And also I bet Daddy didn't just have his foot which was big, probably the rest too. It's Leslie's fault.
Beautiful Dress...I need
Bravo muito bom
何度も観たから字幕なくても話してる内容は分かるよ♪
What a Playboy!
didnt like how he strung her along, dumped her, then just got her back. lame!
Nearing exams and i can
That girl is thin
Thn
I would have rather seen Jayne Mansfield instead of Leslie Caron for this film
Its the paintings that give it away!
