Thanks.

What's the idea of the pictures, mister?

"Life magazine's" doing
a story on the theater.

Why didn't you tell me?

Look at my hair!

What's so special about this place?

It's news, soldier.

This theater went through the blitz

and never missed a single performance.

No kidding?

Aye, and one of your
lassies is in on it, too.

Hmm.

- Rosalita.
- She's an American.

Wonderful thing, lend-lease.

J I come into the park each day j

j to watch the children as they play j

j and see they don't go
near the water banks j

j although it never was too hard j

j to flirt with soldiers of the guard j

j I find it simpler
still to meet the yanks j

j this little Hyde park bench j

j is sometimes like a trench j

j the poles, the Czechs, the greeks j

j auditioning their techniques j

j first I embrace them j

j then I place them on an honor roll j

j and the yanks always rate a spot j

j on my gallup polls j

j what does an english girl j

I think of a yank j

j oh, he's a doll and just as solid j

j as it tank j

j what does an english girl j

I think of his looks j

j and when he says, what's cooking j

j does she know what cooks j

js she just adores his Southern drawl j

j can't resist his, hi, y'all j

j he says, evenin', ma'am j

j she says, evenin', Sam j

j like she's from alabamy j

j what does an english girl j

j think of his jive j

I and when a band is on the stand j

j well, man alive j

I he knows from nothin' j

j he starts rug-cuttin' j

j and throws a hip or two j

j do we hip bang j

j of course, we do j

Mind if I
get some stuff from here, Sam?

Make yourself at home.

There isn't one of them girls

that couldn't be on the
cover of your magazine.

Oh, can't you stay off my feet?

Hold it.

Girls, we've made history.

Now we're making "life."

Wait till you see it.

A six-page spread glorifying
the music box girls.

Come on, girls, we're on.

Now, miss Bruce, just one of you.

Something informal.

Surely.

This ought to help the circulation.

This'll do
more for the blood pressure.

Just one more.

Uh, sorry, I'm on again.

Getting all the pictures you want?

There's one I'd like to get right now.

The boss, how about it, miss tolliver?

Oh, the only pictures
I've taken now are x-rays.

Fine, we'll use them, too.

Anything about the woman

who kept this theater
going through the blitz

is human interest

I'd like to get some from
up high with my view camera.

Sam, show him around, I'll take over.

Come along, young man.

You were here during the blitz,

weren't you Sam?

That I was.

How was it?

Well, you were gonna take
things as you find them.

How did you find them?

We didn't have to, my boy.

They found us.

There. - Bombs, eh?

Yes, incendiaries.

Even that didn't stop the show?

That it didn't

actors are used to having
things thrown at them.

I'd like to have had my camera here

when things were popping.

Well, you'd have
got some rare pictures.

And a story to go with it, I'll bet.

Yes, and a story to go with it.

Any special story, Sam?

A very special story.

A story that'd make you laugh
if it didn't make you cry.

Would you like to hear it?

That's what I'm here for.

Well, I'll have to go
back before the blitz.

Back before the war

there was peace on earth
and bad will among men,

as you might say, but we
knew the war wasn't far off.

It was in rehearsal, so to speak.

I ike our new show

Come on, roz.

Judy, Angela, Toni, that's your cue.

All right, we'll take
it from the second four.

Stop!

Judy, darling, how nice of you to drop in

and what a lovely hat.

And now that we've all seen
it, you can take it off!

Well, uh, you see, it
was this way, tolly, I-

- when I call rehearsal at 10,

I don't mean 10:30

what's that?

It's me, Mrs. tolliver.

I just got it back from the pawnbroker's.

I was practicing.

I hired you as an electrician, didn't I?

But, Mrs. tolliver,

you can get all the electricians you want,

but there's only one
xylophone player like me.

- Well, that's encouraging.
- That's right.

Now, put that thing away

and get back on your job!

Very well, ma'am.

All right,
girls, we'll try it now.

And I want no further interruptions.

There I'll give her right.

What do you want?

- Mrs. tolliver?
- Yes?

I have a letter from Mr. halliday.

Oh.

Is Jim halliday a friend of yours?

Well, I, I know Mr. halliday.

Obviously.

What's more important is
has he seen you dance?

Oh, yes, yes.

Several times.

- Where did you work?
- The globe.

What sort of thing did you do there?

I worked at a loom

but you just said you
danced at the globe theater.

No, I said I worked at the globe.

That's Mr. halliday's firm.

The globe cotton mills.

But your dancing, where did you dance?

At the globe.

How can you dance at the globe?

The globe's not a theater,
it's a cotton mill

well, you see, when you
dance, you must have a rhythm.

- Naturally.
- And I worked at a loom.

And there's a rhythm to the way it works.

And what, may I ask, is your forte?

My what?

I mean, what
sort of dancing do you do?

Oh, I see.

Well, uh, none, really. - What?

I dance pretty much as I feel.

If I feel good, I dance.

If I don't feel so good.

And how do you feel now?

Hungry.

I came up on the milk train
and I've had no breakfast.

I think we should see this
nijinsky from Manchester.

The name is Lawson, Tommy Lawson.

Give your music to
the pianist, Mr. Lawson.

Oh, I have no music.

Then tell him
what you want him to play.

Well, I, I don't rightly know.

I'm sorry we haven't a loom, Mr. Lawson.

When you're not at the
mill, what do you dance to?

Oh, Beethoven, Mozart,
bach, Gilbert and Sullivan.

Whatever's coming in over the radio.

Now I've heard everything.

Sam,

bring me your wireless.

Move back, girls, and give him room.

Young man, the stage is yours.

Thank you.

Oh, no, no, no, leave it alone.

I often dance to him

Very interesting, young man.

That trick thing you did on the stairs.

Will you do it again, please?

- I don't think I can.
- What do you mean?

Well, I don't remember the steps.

I just make 'em up as I go along.

You have talent, young man,

but it's a Sunday-driver sort of talent.

I wouldn't know how to use it

half an hour, everybody,
and be back on time.

- Tolly.
- What is it?

You're crazy if you let that boy go.

He's wonderful

give him a chance, tolly.

Think of what he can do for the show

that's what I'm afraid of

hey, Manchester, wait a minute.

Don't let tolly get you down.

I've been a dancer all my life,

and I know dancing when I see it.

Well, I, I'm glad you liked it.

Hold on a minute, I liked it, too.

Oh, I meant you, too.

But you've got to set a routine

and do it exactly the same way every time.

And you must remember it.

Why, it's no good.

I'm going back to my loom.

Look, if you go back
home now, you're licked.

You've got something to sell, sell it.

You're very kind, both of you.

But this business of dancing
the same way all the time,

I can't... you can do it

we're going to teach
you everything you know.

Go ahead, Judy.

Now watch me.

Got it?

(Got it.

- Go ahead, try it.
- All right.

Well, I've seen better
and I've seen worse.

Now that's a bit of all right.

How do you know?

How do I know?

I've worked in the theater 15 years.

What do you know?

What do I know?

Haven't I worked with some
of the biggest managers

in this business? - Go on.

You cleaned their theaters, that's what.

Well, they never did nothing

without asking me, "what about it?"

Come off it.

"Mrs. peabody," they'd say.

"In or out?"

And it was usually out.

Well, what do you
think now, Mrs. peabody?

Oh, lor', ma'am, you
did give me a nasty turn.

Well, what do you think?

In

Put that light out.

Don't you know there's a war on?

Sorry, Mr. warden.

It was my fault.

I just wanted to see our
names in lights before.

Pilot to navigator,
pilot to navigator,

where the devil are we?

Can't get my
bearings in this bottle of ink.

Wow!

Gentlemen, we seem to
have located an objective.

Our target for tonight, sir?

We can try, gentlemen.

We can try.

Changing course, sir.

I you excite me j

j beyond my power to explain j

j yours is the art to start my heart j

j a bubbling like champagne j

I you excite me j

j and there is nothing I can do j

j when you appear j

j I hear a cheer j

j like thunder in the blue j

j when you weave, the spell you weave j

j I fear to stay and hate to leave j

I you excite me j

j you lead me on and I pursue j

j the dye is cast j

j it's too fantastic j

j yet it's true j

j am I right jl

j am I exciting you j

I you excite me j

j you lead me on and I pursue j

j the dye is cast j

j it's too fantastic j

j yet it's true j

j am I right jl

j am I exciting you j

Bert, cut your finale short.

Here they come again.

Well, can I help it if they're early?

Ladies and gentlemen, there's
a shelter under the stage.

Just pass through the doors
at each side of the theater.

Thank you.

This way, gentlemen.

Come on, boys.

We've been invited to stay.

How do you do, Mrs. good?

Straight ahead now.

Right turn down there.

Right on down to the basement, folks.

No, sir, this way, sir.

Right on down, sir.

That way, right turn now.

Right on down to the basement.

Move along now, folks.

I wish I had my makeup
off and was home in bed.

Well, wishing
won't get you there.

Nor you either, chum.

I haven't slept a wink for nights.

Oh, neither have I.

I'm exhausted

last night, the man next
to me snored for hours.

I'll never sleep in the underground again.

Alfred, don't make so much noise.

Sorry, is that yours?

You mean to say you've never heard

of the great Waldo and his xylophone?

Can't say I have.

That's me, 20 years ago
and this is my xylophone.

We were a great act. Evidently.

A great act.

Sorry.

Fxcuse me.

Scared?

Naturally.

Soaml.

Well, that's not very comforting.

That's like having a lifeguard say

he's afraid of the water

oh, I don't mean this, I mean you.

You, uh, you did a little
bombing tonight yourself,

you know?

That dance you did.

In fact, you bombed from
a very low altitude.

It was not only unfair, it
was practically illegal.

Well, I'm sorry.

You should be

I hope I didn't hit anything vital.

Well you knocked out my
whole communicating system,

if that's any concern to you.

I think you should have supper with me

and sort of help put me
together again, don't you?

No

You don't?

No

Well you haven't any
conscience at all, have you?

I have a perfectly beautiful conscience,

but I also have a date

yeah, naturally.

But you could switch it.

I've only got tonight and tomorrow night.

- I'm sorry, but I-
- Have you ever been

to the 299 club?

- Never.
- You'll like it enormously.

I have no doubt about it, but-

- they've got the hottest band in London,

imported from America.

You are an American, aren't you?

St. Louis.

Well wait till you hear that band

play the "St. Louis blues."

It'll sound like a letter from home

for a man whose communicating
system is out of order,

you're doing awfully well.

Am I?

What must you be like when it's working?

You'll see.

Tolly, that last one got
the cumberland theater.

A direct hit

that's the first hit
they've had in 10 years.

All clear! - Hallelujah.

- Good night, tolly.
- Good night.

- Good night.
- Good night, girls.

Oh, roz, I've got to
make a telephone call

to the sector chief

you and Judy go ahead to Philippe's, eh?

Oh, by the way, good night.

Well you don't really mean that?

I mean just that.

I wish you a very good night.

Rosalind,.

Do you know something, you are a very,

very naughty child. - Why?

Why did you not tell Annette?

I would've fixed you-
tell you what?

- A really big celebration.
- Celebration?

And you are just as bad as she is.

Why keep away from me those secrets?

What are you
talking about, Annette?

Many happy returns of the day.

A little birthday party for you.

Oh.

Hmm,

very nice.

Champagne.

Flowers

- how beautiful.
- And look, Judy, candy, too.

- Oh.
- Oh, it's really nothing.

Too bad, it isn't my birthday.

It isn't?

What do you know about
that, madame Annette?

It's not her birthday.

No?

Oh, I get it.

You're the clever one, mon brave.

Such a pity.

Oh, please stay.

Well, if you decide
it is your birthday, roz,

um, I'll meet Tommy somewhere else.

Oh, no, no, I'm expecting all of you.

- Oh?
- We might as well, Judy.

If I don't admit it's my birthday,

I shudder to think what
holiday he might declare.

Intelligent girl.

Oh, no, no, I know when
I'm licked, that's all.

Here we are

thank you.

- Thank you.
- Mm.

That's for you.

Champagne.

What are you trying
to do, launch something?

That's an idea

I christen thee beautiful
friendship, very beautiful.

He's very charming, your aviator.

Thank you, Annette.

Vive la France

free French

vive I'amour,

I remember during the last war,

there was an aviator, just
such a one as you, monsieur.

So watch out!

I been hearing nothing from
you for the past three days,

except that you're a blitz grandmother.

Blown clean out of bed, my daughter was.

And her baby was born underneath it.

The air raid warden said it
must have been a special kind

of a bomb.

Hitler's secret weapon, I suppose.

What, it ain't everybody
that can have a baby

in an air raid

well, it could happen to anyone.

Hah, I'd like to see it happen to me!

Good night, Mr. Lawson.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Come in.

Mm-hmm_

Let me take a look at you.

What you can do to a dress!

Thank you, Tommy.

You know, I was just thinking.

If I saw you somewhere
and didn't know you.

I'm awfully glad I know you, roz.

So am I, Tommy.

If only someone from
Manchester could be in Philippe's

to see me walk in with you.

Oh, I'm sorry, Tommy,

but I can't have supper with you and Judy.

L, I have a date.

- The air force again?
- Mm-hmm_

Whose birthday is it tonight?

Nobody's.

No, of course not.

What is it this time?

His uncle's silver wedding
or the Chinese new year?

No, it's old home week.

I'm going to meet a
fellow from his outfit.

His name's Chuck brown.

And he's from St. Louis, same as me.

- Oh, no, roz.
- Sure he is.

It's a small world, isn't it?

I'm disappointed in him.

I thought he'd pull a
better one than that.

- Who?
- Lundy.

Roz, that's the oldest dodge in the world.

Oh, I'm, I'm sorry.

Perhaps there is a Chuck brown.

Of course there is,
or Paul wouldn't say so.

Well, where are you meeting?

I don't know, why?

I'll bet it's his apartment.

It's such a comfortable place to wait.

In case Mr. brown is delayed.

I'll also bet you that
sometime during the evening

there'll be a convenient
message from Mr. brown-

- thanks, Tommy.

But I think I'm as good a
judge of people as you are.

Woman's intuition, eh?

That's right.

Woman's intuition is an old
established custom, Tommy.

Good night, Judy.

Good night, roz.

You two been having a row?

Oh, no, no, just bustling her
off to meet prince charming.

Oh.

Shows what a uniform can do.

I like your eyes, even
if the army doesn't.

Come on, Tommy.

I've got a date too, you know.

- Thank you, sir.
- All right.

Uh-uh, mustn't smile.

It lights up the street so much

the warden'll be running us in.

We're going to have
supper at my apartment.

It's more comfortable there

temple gardens.

Now you can smile.

Good evening. - Beg pardon, sir.

Yes?

This letter came for you, sir.

A gentleman from the
royal air force left it.

Thank you.

Here's where I lived before I joined up.

It's very nice.

Oh, you've no idea how
your being in it improves it.

Make yourself at home.

I'll find us something to drink.

Aren't you going to read your note?

Oh, oh, may 1?

Of course, it might be
something, well, unexpected.

No, I, uh, I rather expected this.

It's from a very forgetful man.

I'll be right back, I
suppose you'd like ice?

I want to warn you, this
really isn't a cocktail.

It's a deadly love potion,

brewed from an ancient recipe that,

what's the matter?

I just did something awful.

Impossible.

I read your letter.

It's awfully bad manners

and I never did anything
like that in my life before,

but I, I just had to, don't you see?

Well, there's no reason

why you shouldn't have
read it if you wanted to.

It was just from-i know, but,

for goodness' sakes, give me a drink.

You know, at home, I used
to read books about england.

The hero always lived in rooms like this.

Fine old building with lots of tradition.

Cheerful fire, oak-paneled walls.

Old, worn leather armchairs.

Solid and substantial.

It's very reassuring.

Oh?

Yes?

Of course, send him up at once.

Who's that?

My father.

He doesn't look as if
he likes me very much.

Well, if he looks a bit startled,

you're probably the first actress

he's ever seen in his life.

Fxcuse me.

- Anything more, sir?
- No, that'll be all.

Thanks, good night.
Good night, sir.

Good night, miss.

If we get hungry.

- He isn't coming, is he?
- Who?

- Chuck brown.
- Oh, darling,

you really wouldn't have liked him at all.

Very rude fellow.

Not your type.

Of course, I didn't find
all these things out until,

rosalind, please,

say you're glad he isn't coming.

Doesn't matter.

Rosalind

I discovered something
very interesting tonight.

Do you know that?

What?

That woman's intuition
is highly overrated.

I've discovered something, too.

Really?

Well, don't you want to hear what it is?

It's something you
yourself said last night.

I?

What?

Listen

I you excite me j

j beyond my power to explain j

j yours is the art to start my heart j

j a bubbling like champagne j

j youex j

I'm glad this is not an
example of British strategy,

or I'd be very worried about
the outcome of the war.

Hello.

Hello!

You're home early.

Oh, is it early?

I hadn't noticed

didn't you have a nice time?

Oh, sure, grand.

Well, tell me about it.

Where did you go?

Oh, well, we ended
up at Paul's apartment.

There wasn't any man from St. Louis.

He didn't show up, he
wasn't meant to show up.

It was just one of Paul's little ideas.

It was just one of those things.

L, I thought Paul was different.

But, oh, Judy, how I
wanted him to be different.

To be here, or not to be here,

that is the question, old man.

No, old boy, that's the answer.

What's happened to my call

to the music box theater, London?

I've been waiting more than,

but she can't refuse the call, can she?

Oh,

she can.

These are for you, sir,

they're marked, "return to sender.”

Yes, I know. - What shall I do?

I know

well, have you a mother?
Why, yes, sir.

- That's it.
- Thank you, sir.

I you excite me j

j beyond my power to explain j

j yours is the art to start my heart j

j a bubbling like champagne j

it's sensational, sir.

Music, dancing, girls.

Everything the men want.

Oh, I don't know.

We've got Shakespeare booked on Sunday.

Oh, I'm not saying a word
against Shakespeare, sir,

he's very well thought of.

But a thing like this
has its points too, sir.

I mean, in its own way,
it's quite educational.

I'll put in a request for them.

Thank you very much, sir.

Oh, could you Mark it urgent, sir,

in case any of the young
ladies has other plans?

What?

Oh, yes, yes, quite.

I'm sorry.

They really
gave it to us tonight.

The streets are full
of bricks and glass.

We can't even get home.

This is the last straw

oh, I can't remember when
I've had a good night's sleep.

Well, aren't the buses running?

- Nothing's running.
- Nothing's even walking.

Well, look who's here,
Mary, queen of the war effort.

Where's the colonel?

Waiting for me at the 299 club.

My taxi couldn't get through.

Why didn't he send a tank for you?

I don't know what
my ma'll say, not goin' home.

Well you had to come back, t00?

Couldn't take the girls to supper

and we couldn't take them home,

so we brought 'em back to you.

It's no good, children,
we can't go on like this.

It's going to get worse instead of better.

You're not gonna close
the music box, are you?

What about us?

Ain't we got our rights?

It's easy for you chaps.

You're only in for one
show, we do five a day.

Don't close up.

There aren't many theaters left open.

I'm on a minesweeper

and these shows are nice to come home to

you can't do it, tolly.

They're right.

If they wanna come,
you've got to stay open.

I don't know how we're going to do it,

but if that's the way you want it, lads,

we'll have a try at it.

All right, girls, say good
night to your friends.

Good night, boys.

Good night.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Well, wake me up
for the first show, somebody.

My poor dogs, are they barking!

- I could sleep-
- You're telling me-

- standing up.
- So are mine.

Well, it's better
than trying to get home.

That's all I can say.

If we've still got a home.

Of course we've got a home.

What's the matter with staying
right here in the theater?

Live in the theater?

But what about my social life?

No, thanks, I'm not
running any home for actors.

Oh, we won't be any trouble, tolly.

All we have to do is put
mattresses in the dressing rooms.

I can imagine you people
together 24 hours a day.

A thing like that breeds murder.

Oh, we'd behave like lambs, tolly.

We could pool our ration points

and rig up a kitchen and canteen upstairs.

Come on, tolly, it'd be fun.

- Yes, tolly.
- Oh, yes.

- Come on, tolly.
- Let's give it a try.

- Come on.
- Come on, tolly.

Very well, if all of you
want to try it, I'll agree.

You've made your beds,
now you can sleep in them.

- Good night.
- Good night!

J you feel you'd like to drop j

j but you must never stop j

j just go on with the fight j

j tonight and every night j

j la la laj

j la la la lad

j da, da, da, da, da, da, da j

j when all is said and done j

j let's have some fun j

j tonight and every night j

Everybody up!

Come on, qirls.

Eight o'clock, up you get.

Show a leq.

Oh, have a heart, Sam.

Can't we even sleep on Sunday morning?

Not this Sunday, you can't.

You've got a date with
the air force, all of you.

Well, I've seen better landings.

Sorry, sir.

Not bad, we made it in 55 minutes.

We're in luck, sir, the show's still on.

Yes, I'm afraid
my devotion to the drama

isn't as great as yours, Lundy.

I suppose you want me
to take these reports

to control, sir.

No, no, never mind.

The war's taken up quite enough

of your time this evening, Lundy.

Thank you very much, sir.

J before the bugler blows j

j lights out j

I we have some time to think about j

j the many chaps that
we have left behind us j

j there's one especially I recall j

I there's one I miss the most of all j

j so maybe that's why they took me j

j if they need me then I'm
glad to be of service j

j but there's one thing that
I wish they had defined j

j oh, they should have
told me, I get nervous j

j for the boy I left behind j

I get aches all over
and it's getting chronic.

I take medicine and pills of every kind.

J but they'll never substitute a tonic j

j for the boy I left behind j

the other day I got the sweetest letter.

"All my love and kisses,"
that's the way he signed.

J so each night I wear
his favorite sweater j

j for the boy I left behind j

j he goes down to the
blood bank each day j

js shouting v for victory j

j he takes more blood than he gives away j

j so maybe that's why they took me j

j I'm supposed to be content
and just keep dreaming j

j if they think that I'm
content they must be blind j

j 'cause I go to sleep
and wake up screaming j

J for in every dream I've pined j

j for the boy I j

J we're the victims of
a thousand regulations j

j that's a military strata just designed j

j they can't regulate
a girl's sensations j

j there's no rule that they can find j

j for the boy I left behind j

Hello

[, I couldn't wait until
after the show to see you.

You are going to talk to me, aren't you?

What about?

Rosalind, please.

So I acted like an idiot.

But you can't rule a man
out for trying, can you?

After all, even a dog
is entitled to one bite.

Now, now, wait, wait a minute.

I don't mean that literally.

I just mean that-i know exactly

what you mean.

"We're grown up, we're modern,
we know what it's all about.

And remember, darling, there's a war on."

Routine number three

that isn't a routine, it's true.

There is a war on.

And it gives us so little time.

Don't let's waste it, rosalind.

Please don't let's waste it

aren't you convinced yet that I'm-

- I'm convinced of this,

that I've had a very bad time
since you walked out on me.

Too bad about you.

I tried to phone you,

I've apologized a dozen times in letters.

Which I never opened.

Well, there you are.

Is that fair?

I've tried to tell you how I feel, I.

Rosalind, you've got to listen.

I might not have another chance.

Why not?

If there is a tomorrow
it's so much velvet, roz.

Don't talk like that

please like me

at least like me.

This is miss Bruce, sir.

- How do you do?
- How do you do?

I'm sorry, Lundy, but there's
something big on tonight.

For you?

Evidently.

I'm sorry to have to
interrupt this excellent show,

but I have an announcement to make

all crews of squadrons 1082, 1083

and 1084 will assemble at once

in the lecture room of this building.

The rest of you, as you were.

Please carry on with the show, thank you.

Well,

so long.

Paul!

Come back safely.

Do you want me to?

I want you to.

Come on, Paul.

Okay.

Uh, you'll let me know when-

- I'll telephone you tomorrow.

In the meantime, say it
over to yourself 100 times,

"Paul loves me"

and when I get back,
you'll be used to the idea.

I'm used to it right now.

I catch on awful quick when I want to.

All right, stand at ease.

You're from the music box, aren't you?

Yes

you'll be late.

Morning, ladies.

Well, that's the first time

I ever saw our Mr. Tommy take a nip.

It's the blitz.

Everything's topsy-turvy.

My old man stopped drinking.

The doctor calls it shell-shock

quaint, ain't it?

Hi, Judy, top of the morning.

Hello, Tommy.

Tommy creates
the most original new steps.

I'm sorry to keep bothering you.

Yes, I know you're not permitted
to give out any information

but, well, last night,
squadron leader Lundy said,

well, he said he would telephone me

and I haven't heard from him

all I wanna know is, did he get back?

Can't you tell me that, please?

And all the time I thought
Tommy was going for you.

Oh, shut up.

I can't keep up with the
love life of this opera house.

Now, when I want a man, I go after him.

Thanks for the trade secret

Judy, you're on!

Coming, Sam.

I'm betting on Paul, roz.

Do you think I'm not?

On with you, Judy.

Hello?

Yes, this is the music box.

Who?

Oh, yes, just a moment, I'll get her.

For you.

Hello

paull

oh, Paul!

Are you all right?

I didn't know what had happened.

I thought you were, I was afraid that.

Of course I've been saying it.

Yes, it sounds wonderful.

Where are you?

I'm here, in London, on
my way back to my unit.

I ran into a little trouble,
force landed in Scotland.

I'm going to see you, aren't I?

You're not going back right away?

There's an eight o'clock
train tomorrow morning.

I've got to be on it.

That'll give us 10 whole hours, darling.

Hello

begging your pardon, sir,

but we are going somewhere, aren't we?

Oh, yes, yes, I, I'm sorry.

We, uh,

where to?

We've never been by
ourselves in our whole life.

Do you realize that?

Do ll realize it?

Well,

once

but we don't talk about that, do we?

No, we don't talk about that.

Thanks.

Besides, you're forgiven.

How about me forgiving
you too, governor,

and let's be off

oh, uh, oh, yes.

Yes, um, uh.

Look, there must be somewhere we can go.

There's only one place
we could be by ourselves,

isn't there?

Can't we go there?

My place?

Why not?

I love you.

I love you.

It's all so beautiful it
fair makes me heart bleed.

Can't we love and trust each other

and still drive around the park a bit?

No, cabby, my place.

I don't want to be nosy, governor,

but it would be much easier
if I had your address.

Now, wouldn't it?

Oh, I'm sorry,

temple gardens.

Thank you, sir.

Would you like to take cover, sir?

No, thanks, we'll go on.

Sorry, sir,

would you mind giving up this cab?

It's urgent.

Certainly, go right ahead.

It's not very far to my place.

I don't suppose you can make
it though, in those high heels?

I go everywhere in high heels.

Come on, let's go!

What a climate!

The one night you'd beg for a fog,

and look at that silly moon,
absolutely blazing away!

Isn't that your flat?

Well it was my flat.

Have you ever been asleep
with the girl you love

on the embankment in the early morning?

Quite frankly, I haven't.

Opens up a whole new line of thought.

I'm going to marry her, you know?

Does she know anything about it?

I suppose so.

I haven't actually mentioned
it to her yet, but, uh.

Good heavens!

You don't suppose she wouldn't?

Well, it's happened, I imagine.

Hey, what's your hurry?

What's my hurry?

I'm going to telephone her.

Oh, no you don't.

The old man wants to see you.

Now!

- Now?
- Now.

Don't worry, roz.

If something had happened to
Paul, you'd have heard by now.

Bad news travels-yes, I know.

But it's, but it's been
nearly two weeks, Judy,

and they're always back
in six or eight hours, if,

if they're coming back.

Judy, look!

It's Paul's observer.

Yes, that means.

Hello, Leslie. - Oh, miss Bruce,

miss Kane

when did you get back?

Is Paul all right?

I imagine he's quite all right.

We, um, haven't seen him, exactly.

You haven't?

No, uh, you see, we've
been on 14-days leave.

Yes, and as you can imagine,

we've been putting it

to pretty good use. - Yes.

Well, have you all been on leave?

- Yes.
- Oh, yes.

All the squadron, in fact.

We've, uh, sent the second team in.

Well, 1, uh, I think
we've got to be getting along.

- Yes, uh, goodbye.
- Goodbye.

- Goodbye, miss Bruce.
- Goodbye.

Oh, and, uh, have a nice time.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Goodbye.

Now, wait a minute, roz.

Perhaps Paul had to help the
second team or something.

You know better than that.

If they're on leave, he's on leave.

You saw how they acted, didn't you?

Men are so beautifully loyal.

Oh, miss Bruce.

Here's a message for you.

Oh.

"Oh," what?

Read it

"dear, miss Bruce. I'm Paul's father.

I'm in town and shall come to
see the performance tonight.

I would like very much

to have a few words with you
afterwards if it is convenient.

Yours faithfully, Gerald Lundy."

What does he want?

It's very simple, darling.

He wants to explain to me

who go on the stage.

Well, I'll give him that pleasure.

And I'll explain to him that
I have a few allergies myself.

And one of them is
weak-kneed squadron leaders!

Third row, center.

It's too bad I have this costume on.

I'd like to have made his
visit really worthwhile.

J life's up and down j

j it's smile and frown I

j it can either be a place j

j to laugh or weep in j

j the fact is you're the one j

j who makes the bed you sleep in j

j ah, ah, ah, ah j

Take care of that one, Fred.

You come with me

Take it easy.

There

have off with his cloak.

Sam, you'd better set the gypsy number.

[T's no good.

There's no room for them to work

the rigging's stuck.

I can't fly the drop.

We'll have to stop the
show for 15 minutes.

Very well.

Oh, Mrs. tolliver!

You don't have to stop the show.

Let me go on. - What?

Oh, let me do my act.

I have all me props here.

I've always had 'em here.

Oh, Fred.

But, Mrs. tolliver,

20 years ago... I know.

You knocked them cold

what do you think, Sam?

Well, what have we got to lose?

All right, Fred.

1'm on

I'm on!

Don't worry, miss.

He was a bit of all right in his day.

How do you know?

Why, I cleaned the theater
where he worked 20 years ago.

Of course, it won't be
the same without Lucy.

Lucy?

Oh, she was the other half of the act.

The better half

do you remember what they did?

Oh, like it was yesterday.

Come with me.

Will you tell Bert to follow me,

and we'll finish with "anywhere."

Bert, Fred's going on to do his act.

Now, follow him and
finish up with "anywhere."

Now, how do you know it's
worse than the blitz?

Well, who'd you expect, bing Crosby?

Are you ready, maestro?

I et's torture the customers

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

Save the wood, boys, it
may be a cold winter.

And now I'm going to play
"pop goes the weasel" for you

with sound effects

"pop goes the weasel" with sound effects.

Wait a minute.

I'm gonna let you pop the bag.

You take the bag.

Now you take the bag, take the bag.

I'll, uh, I'll play the music.

When I give you the cue,

you pop the bag.

Whoopee!

Whoopee!

Thank you, folks, thank you.

He didn't do it

look, give me the bag, give me the bag.

You don't get the idea.

I ook here

give me the bag.

How do you expect to pop
without blowing it up?

Now hold it. - Okay.

Whoopee!

Whoopee!

Thank you, folks, thank you.

What's the matter?

Are you too good to pop?

Say, maybe you'd like to hear,

"listen to the mockingbird?"

No!

You're going to get it anyhow.

Oh, "listen to the mockingbird."

Ah, wait a minute.

I'm gonna give you another chance.

Here

you take the bird whistle there

you take the bird whistle

take the bird whistle

in this number, when I say, when I say,

"oh, listen to the mockingbird,

oh, listen to the mockingbird,"

is the cue for the bird whistle

- ah ha.
- You got it?

- Yes.
- Whoopee!

Whoopee!

Thank you, folks, thank you.

See, I forgot to mention,

in this number, I do a
very clever imitation

of the mockingbird in flight.

Do you like it?

Here it is

well, what did you want me to do?

Break me leg?

J oh, listen to the mockingbird j

The guy's balmy.

But I'm all right.

Look, the time to pop is over.

Now it's the bird effect

the bird effect

J oh, listen to the mockingbird j

j oh, listen to the mocking j

give me the bird.

That is the last straw!

- Oh, I see.
- Take it easy.

- Take it easy.
- Take it easy now.

Oh, all right, all right.

Whoopee!

Whoopee!

Thank you, folks, thank you.

Boys, a chord in d.

And now I

I've lost me dickey.

I have a very beautiful thing
I'm going to play for you.

A number from our show called "anywhere."

When you hear me play this,

you'll wish you were anywhere but here.

Are you ready, professor?

Let's give them one.

You can believe it or not,

but one night, I played
108 choruses of this.

Give them another one, boys.

Miss Bruce?

This way, sir.

Come in.

How do you do?

I'm Paul's father

I know, this
is my friend, miss Kane.

Her best friend and I'm staying.

Oh, uh, I'm sure if miss
Bruce doesn't object, I don't.

I'm very much afraid I've
taken on a difficult task.

You'll be surprised how
easy it's going to be.

Sit down, Mr. Lundy.

Judy.

Have you heard from
my son in the last two weeks?

Well, I haven't kept
track of the time exactly.

You know I haven't, Mr. Lundy.

Neither have I

you haven't?

But he's here in London, isn't he?

His friends were... oh, no.

No, he was detailed for a
special mission of some sort.

That much I did learn

something quite important, I believe.

Important enough to take him
away from his own squadron.

I received a trunk with books

and personal belongings yesterday.

You mean something's happened?

Oh, no, no.

I believe that during his absence,

his squadron is being moved to
another station, that's all.

Oh!

Uh, yes.

Among the things he sent
home was this Bible.

The one I gave him when he enlisted.

This is precisely the way it came.

Your photograph, with a
page of the theater program.

You can see where he's written,

"this is for her"

what's he trying to suggest?

Rosalind needs a Bible?

Quiet, Judy.

I didn't disturb a thing.

Here is where your picture
was, in 1 corinthians.

1 corinthian is one of Paul's epistles.

The Saint, Paul.

My Paul was named after him.

Hopefully.

Do you think he's trying
to tell me something or, or?

She means maybe it's a, you
know, a code or something.

Maybe.

I et's see now.

"In concerning the things whereof,

defraud ye not one the other,

for I would that all
men were even as I was.

Therefore I say, 'tis better to marry-"

what was that last one?

"Tis better to marry then-"

Mr. Lundy, look!

The words, "this is for
her", come right opposite

"tis better to marry."

Do you suppose that?

That's the way I translated it.

Well, I'll be.

I admit it is an extraordinary
way to propose to a girl.

What do you think?

What do you think?

I hope you're going to accept.

Oh, dear.

The last time I proposed was 27 years ago.

I seem to have lost my technique.

Will you marry us, rosalind?

Of course, I will.

Tolly, Angela, Toni, Joan, Tommy!

Apparently your betrothal
is being announced.

It has every sanction I know.

Goodbye, my dear.

Goodbye.

What I've learned
about the theater tonight

has made me very humble and very proud.

It's nice to know that
my daughter is a soldier,

as well as my son.

Tommy, Tommy!

Have you heard.

Why, what's the matter, Tommy?

Nothing.

I'm wondering what's going to
happen to the deal we all made

to stick to the music
box for the duration.

But I'm not gonna leave the music box.

Paul's got his job and I've got mine.

Don't make me laugh.

All Mr. Paul has to do is raise his finger

and you'll come running, wherever he is.

Tommy!

You're kidding, aren't you?

The only person I've
been kidding is myself.

I had a lot of funny ideas about you,

only they're not so funny now.

I never got around to telling you, roz,

but, I'm in love with you.

Or thought I was, or used to be.

I don't know, you sort it out.

Paul's back, isn't he?

No, roz, it's his group captain.

He's waiting in your dressing room.

Oh, Sam!

Now, now, take it easy.

Is he, did anything-

- good morning, miss Bruce.

I'm sorry.

You can tell me.

I only wanted to tell you
that Paul's back in the country

and he'll be here tomorrow, miss Bruce.

Oh!

And to explain that he's
been on a secret mission.

You read about the conference overseas?

Now, when a personage like
that has to be flown somewhere,

we choose a pretty good pilot to fly him.

And your Paul's a pretty
good pilot, miss Bruce.

You must think I'm awfully silly,

but I saw the car outside, and I-

- I had to
be in London for the day,

so I thought I'd save
you 24 hours of worry.

Thank you.

Thank you ever so much.

Roz,

roz

I'm all right.

I'm not crying, I'm laughing.

Oh, Judy.

Paul's coming back.

Oh!

J anywhere j

j as long as you are there j

j anywhere j

j just start the chase j

j I'll go where you are, dear j

j it doesn't matter how far, dear j

j I'd take a trip j

j to a star, dear j

j for that warm embrace j

j just say you care j

j and I'll go anywhere j

j anytime j

j and anyplace j

j although I have no magic carpet j

j I'm willing to swear j

j that kiss of yours j

j could take me anywhere j

roz, the air ministry
have agreed and everything.

Hello.

Hello, Tommy, how are you?

So you're back, eh?

And a fine welcome, too.

- That's a nice-
- What would you do

with a girl who turns you down?

Turns you down?

Yes, here I am with
something I never counted on,

a real honeymoon.

A long one in Canada.

I'm being sent there.

And she tells me she's going
to stay here in the theater.

- But Paul, don't you-
- Oh, no, she's not.

She's going to Canada.

There you are.

Tommy knows what he's talking about.

Not always, but I do now.

Good luck, roz, and lots of happiness.

Everybody on stage for the finale.

Places quickly.

And if you're still in town

when that ship sails for
Canada, I'll fire you.

- Good luck, roz.
- Good luck.

Have you seen Tommy, Fred?

Tommy?

Well, now, come to think of it, yes.

Where?

Heading across the
street to the pub, Judy.

Thanks.

Hello, Judy.

Hello, Tommy.

Thought I'd have a little
celebration on my own.

Join me?

Thanks.

Sherry, please.

Have you got something
to celebrate, Tommy?

Oh, certainly.

When an old pal gets married
it calls for a private toast

from her two best friends

to roz

to roz

It's going to be sort of empty
without her, isn't it, Tommy?

Oh, yes, yes, sure.

Especially to us.

We started something, the three of us.

And now?

Well, take one away from
three and you've got two.

A nice comfortable figure, two.

A very nice figure, two.

You were very sweet to roz, Tommy.

I could kiss you for it.

Well, who's stopping you?

That was a close one

- I hope everyone's all right.
- What happened?

Any damage, Sam?

Pretty near.

Has anyone seen Tommy?

Well he should be on
the roof on fire watch.

He's not there

then he must be in his dressing room.

Roz!

Well, he must be
someplace in the theater.

If he is, we can't find him.

The pub!

They got the pub!

Stand back there.

Keep under cover.

Tommy wasn't at the party.

- No, no, he wasn't.
- I didn't see him.

Judy!

Where's Judy? - Judy?

Dear god, please!

Not Judy,

not Tommy.

Oh, Paul, I can't stand it.

I've got to go.

Rosalind, you mustn't.

Judy?

And Tommy.

"Overture and beginners."

Better call it off, Sam.

We can't go on.

We can't do that, Mrs. tolliver.

That's the way it is.

One falls out, another steps in.

Soldier or civilian.

Very well, Sam.

We'll have to make some
changes in the running order.

I et me see.

Switch the gold number
next to the opening,

and, we'll have to cut
"tonight and every night."

Tolly.

Don't cut Judy's number.

I'll do it

okay, roz.

We'll have it next to the closing.

Children, the curtain's going up.

Make it a great performance.

Oh, Paul!

You don't have to tell me, I know.

You're staying.

You,

you understand?

I understand.

And what we need is a few
more guys from St. Louis.

Oh, darling.

J if you've a faith like mine j

j the stars are bound to shine j

j will help your worries fade j

j and make your cares take flight j

j tonight and every night j

j every night j

j we're gonna win j
