      In the 60s, I heard him described as, "suave and sophisticated". All 3 terms are correct, but he stands out because he was no snob- he drew people to him with the same qualities that turn most of us away. He's definitely one of the larger 'gems' in England's actor-studded crown.

    A delightful film which included in the cast three future Oscar winners, David Niven, Loretta Young and Broderick Crawford and the geezer pulling packs of cards out of Hugh Herbert’s ears looked like a professional magician as he was too good to be an actor.

    One of the more interesting things about this movie. The magic/magician adviser of this movie was a real life professional magician. And a Vaudeville headliner. He also wrote a book on Card magic that is still being published today. He appears twice in this movie. Once producing cards and an egg with the comedy assistant of the great Artero. And once on-stage when as an on-stage assistant when the star of the movie is vanishing a girl in what is called a tip over the box. His name, Paul LePaul and the book he wrote was called The Card Magic of LePaul. For a close to true look at Theater magic/magicians - past times. This movie does a very good job of it.

Narcotic i watched last night old very riduculous drug scene..women using needles cocaine..i actually thought it should be seen by more people..just for really intense scene& some bleak fake chinese dude reminded me of a bad opium using Leanard Nemo..well tmi but addicted to really great old movies..ines that teach me something..Glinda was well helping them thru drug enhanced bad dream. Post covid is a bad dream. Prior to covid i had just begun persuing well made or cultish b movies...but did love oz. Oz was kinda like todays world flying monkeys druggies& strange magical creatures who cannot be called out for being heartless or brainless or fearless..well fear full tmi ..sorry.TMC was my fav channel watch tons every chance i get.

This film had a great cast of characters, Eve Arden, Broderick Crawford, who wasn't type cast to play the heavy?Taking the role of that big teddybear type, although he's much thinner here and his voice isn't as gruff.Then of course Billie Burke, who played Glinda the good Witch in The Wizard of OZ.

    I can not say enough if you love old Hollywood and you would like to know the gossip or what was going on during this time I would say read any of the books written by Niven he was such a great writer and he does something that I have seen very little of he keeps his own ego out what he is writing about he does not show hatred or at least he will give a reason on what he talks about in a light of really sorrow like seeing a certain screen legend suffering with syphilis and really mourning the fall from where they had been. Trust me you will not be sorry. I love when he writes about Humphrey Bogart and his first wife and Bacall and Bogarts love for each other C'est Magnifique . Sorry I will get off the soap box now.

    Well, I watched the whole thing, but it was SO Hollywood. Really hard to swallow the plot. Just a way of showing how gorgeous Loretta Young was. almost like each shot was for a publicity photo. David Niven wonderful; overall excellent cast. Good historically by showing the World's Fair; and yes, gloriously filmed. I'm giving thumb's up, but wish we could rate on a scale.

      Flora Bunda My grandparents attended the 1939 New York State's World Fair and I have a souvenir tray from there. I had a souvenir coin but it was stolen back in February when my house was broken into. It broke my heart they probably didn't get anything for it even on eBay it was only going for $35. It just happened to be in with the coin collection that they stole.

    I really admire those films and the actresses of the golden era were fabulously feminine but I can't help myself notice how skinny they were, as you can easily see they were skin and bones(especially the ones in leading roles and men were no exception)...Now I can comprehend that being slim is definitely healthy and at that period of time people were naturally slimmer then nowadays...but was not kinda too much even for that time?!?

      Meliapan today’s women even in their 20s are fat and fat! I go to the supermarket and of course they’re the ones wearing tight shorts or are they tight because their legs are bigger than mine. Many actresses were actually quite vivacious! Need I mention a few? Actually, Loretta Young maintained the same figure through her entire acting career.

      Yes, they are astonishingly thin, and would have been even thinner in real life as the camera would have put weight on them. At one point in the film David Niven estimates he is 175 pounds, which I guess is still slim for a man over 6 foot.

      The studios wanted their leading women to be slim and put them on diets. Niven was naturally slim as was James Stewart, who, if I remember correctly, was put on a banana diet by the studio , to make him put on weight.
      They wanted the leading women to be very slim, but they didn't want men to be too slim.

      long before but He took a break as he returned to Britain to serve in WW2. Which meant he lost his star status for a time.
      Famously as he was leading a patrol of scout cars across a dangerous bridge he rallied his men by saying "Its alright for you ,you only have to do this once. after the war I will have to do it over again but with Errol Flynn!"

      @@barbarabowman3328 Yes her voice truly is unique, as soon as I heard her speak, I knew exactly who she was, who could forget Glinda, a role she made famous, and that voice so sweet and a child-like innocence to it. As a child, we all would think her the epitome of goodness, and even now, nearing my seventies, there is still that child saying the world is not so bad after all.
