[MUSIC]

[APPLAUSE]

And now, ladies and gentlemen, for the

first time in our fair city of Munich,

we present America's greatest master of

jazz, for one night only, on this

triumphant European tour,

the one and only,

Paul Stapleton and his...

[MUSIC] [MUSIC]

Well, what's it today,

boys? Churches or museums?

Mile in. Here's your big chance to see

the world. Take advantage of it.

Well, at least drive slow, boss. At your

usual rate of speed, every dame looks the

same, and I want to do a

little window shopping.

[MUSIC]

Who let you loose in the streets? Don't

you realize it could have... Well...

That's for your driving. I must admit one

thing, although it isn't very much.

You're a better

orchestra leader than a driver.

Let me tell you something. I'm the best

driver I ever met in my entire career. Do

you know what you are? A woman driver.

I'd be foolish to deny it. Look what

you've done to my car. Look at it.

You can't drive it like that. Look, if

you really have to be

somewhere, I can take you in my car.

Well, I do have an appointment at 12, but

I can take a taxi. I

don't want to bother you.

I'm not going anywhere in particular.

Let's go. We can call the

garage on the way. Come on.

[MUSIC]

All right, boys, make room for the IP.

Oh, but Paul, you were supposed to show

us the frown, Kirsh. You remember?

You know, I was so excited about it, I

couldn't sleep all night. Out.

But there's enough room for all of us,

Paul, with a little good will. After all,

we are in a good will, Joe, you know.

And the lady could sit

on my lap. We'd marriage.

Stay with that car until someone picks it

up. I'll see you at the hotel.

Is that the way you treat

your musicians, Mr. Stegner?

Sure. You and your rules say, "Weapon

twice a day and keep

away from beautiful women."

[MUSIC]

Thank you. Now, have you

finished with my hand, Mr. Stegner?

I haven't. Not yet. Not until I know when

I get it back. Will tonight

be all right after the show?

So?

Oh, what am I saying? We're

catching a plane at midnight.

And I'm catching trains.

Yeah? Where are you going?

If you must know to

Hamburg, I've got my uncle there.

[LAUGHTER]

Why, what's the matter?

Faith. That's what it is. Faith. Hamburg,

that's our next stop. And our next date.

I don't believe in faith, Mr. Stegner.

Huh?

Hey, if we're in the same

place, how can you avoid me?

And look, it's a

pretty big city. I manage.

You want to manage?

Mm-hmm.

You mean you don't want to see me again?

Am I that obnoxious?

Pretty obnoxious. No, of course not. But

I only go out with men I know very well.

And I'm afraid I won't

ever know you very well.

That's easy. You can read me like a book.

And if there's something you don't

understand, just ask me.

Now, when we meet in Hamburg--

How long will you stay in Hamburg?

One day.

See?

In case you're right. Too little time.

Well, thank you very

much, Mr. Stegner. Goodbye.

Just one more thing.

Gladly.

Just this. Why didn't

you applaud last night?

But, Mr. Stegner, I never applaud.

When I like something very much.

Well, ain't we sharp?

Don't tell me I know it.

Blind, red, or green?

Will always have to be a girl?

Yes.

Well, tonight I'm keeping select company.

I'm invited to a party at

the home of Baron Wisback.

I'll be your then, Baron von Stableton.

Mr. Stableton, great honor

to have here as my guest.

I don't understand too much about music,

but it is not the musician in you to whom

I express my appreciation.

It is to the ambassador of goodwill, to

the man who reaches into

the heart of young people,

and there is more for

peace and understanding--

It's embarrassing, Baron.

All I do is make music the

way I learned it back home.

But it's a great feeling to know that

they love it here, too.

I must not monopolize you.

Great, huh?

Great that this is Mr. Paul Stableton,

the famous American band leader.

My niece, Miss Norman.

Miss Norman and I have already met.

You have?

How nice.

And how surprising.

Yes, I'm perfect.

Mrs. Stableton and I bump

into each other in Munich.

Although Hamburg is a pretty

big city, it's a small world.

Excuse me.

Come, Miss Stableton.

There are lots of

people dying to meet you.

Do you believe in fate now?

A little.

Where can we talk?

But all the people here

will want to meet you.

This is the third time you

and I have met purely by chance.

I can't gamble on the mere

possibility of there being a four.

Over there.

Yes, it's me.

Just wanted to make sure you were real.

And are you sure now?

Not quite.

Yes, thank you.

You live here?

Sometimes.

When I come to Hamburg.

15 minutes, no 10.

You're going to develop a headache.

A what?

Just a convenient little headache that

forces you to retire.

Then a little while later I'll remember I

have an early rehearsal.

Then your headache and my rehearsal will

meet outside the house.

What the?

Can't resist fate, remember?

Can't you feel that headache coming on?

Yes, but whether it's

fate or your company.

You'll find out.

You talked and haven't

said the right things yet.

Go on, I like to listen.

Tell me everything.

My age, height and

social security number?

No.

Tell me about the timing of words.

Just the little boy.

Well, I was a terrible brat,

but I had a wonderful time.

I was kind of sorry to grow up.

I would say you never did.

No?

I don't know. I don't know.

Just want to see your face, that's all.

Just another face.

Not to me.

Oh.

What?

Oh, you want to see my face now?

No, I want to see your watch.

It's two o'clock.

Why so upset? Happens twice every day.

I sneaked out two hours

ago for only half an hour.

I must get home. Really?

Ten more minutes?

No, it's far too late.

All right.

You know, it's funny.

I hardly know you, and yet

you're very important to me.

No, not really.

Yes, you are.

Good night, Paul.

And good luck.

Five more minutes?

You know, I saw a funny little street

running off down that way.

A street that would love to see you.

No, Paul, please.

I'd like to kiss you good night.

No, Paul.

I'd like to very much.

I'd like to talk to you for years.

I'd like to kiss you for years.

But tomorrow night I'm in Amsterdam, and

the night after that in Brussels.

Well, good night, Redeye.

Let's have those five more minutes.

Where's that street that wants to see me?

I were a painter, and someone asked me,

"What will a girl you fall in love with live?" I'd have painted you.

Even without knowing me?

Yes.

I knew you long before I met you.

It makes no sense.

What you want.

Make me fall in love with you.

It's not a question of

wanting or not, Greta.

You're cruel, Paul.

I don't want to fall in love with you.

I'm sorry. I want to fall in love with you.

All right, Greta.

I guess I'm being selfish.

Please take me home.

Good night.

Good night.

Please tell me some bad

things about yourself.

Very bad things.

So it will be easier for me to...

Easier?

Tell me that everything

you've said was just a routine.

A big lie.

There are, of course,

variations, you understand.

Some girls like the romantic approach.

And some girls like...

I'll make it easy for you.

I'm all bad.

I give you my word of honor.

Nothing better could

happen than for you to leave

and never see me again.

Come here.

Fix!

Yee-haw!

What is it, Paul?

What's the matter, Paul?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. You must be loaded.

Are you all right?

All right. I feel wonderful.

Well, what's happening?

A landslide. That's what's happened.

A shooting star hit me.

If you put a Geiger counter

near me, it would explode.

You think we should

send for an ambulance?

No, it's just his little way.

Look, look fellas.

We're staying in Hamburg.

Oh, now I know you're nuts.

Man, it's four o'clock in

the morning and 14 hours.

We've got to be on stage in Amsterdam.

Well, we won't be.

But the house is sold out.

We just can't break the contract.

No, don't talk to him that way, Chippy.

It's the wrong approach.

All right. All right.

We break the contract.

What's the lawsuit of a few thousand

bucks for breach of contract?

But tell me, will you?

Just what's so wonderful about Hamburg?

Everything.

Especially Greta.

Who?

Greta.

The girl in the car, remember?

The girl who wouldn't applaud.

Oh, but now I suppose

she's cheering her head off.

Well, at least it isn't

a museum or a monument.

Only a girl.

A girl we can move.

Why not have her come along for the ride?

She's not that kind of a girl.

Well, what kind of a girl is she?

The kind every love song is about.

Every poem.

Every-- I'll get a doctor.

Oh, man. I'll get a conference.

Look, fellas, you know how

it is if I want something.

Yes, but Paul, this isn't a

piece of China or a necktie.

No.

It's love.

Chippy, see if you can

get Amsterdam on the phone.

Bix, you better tell the boys.

No, you call Amsterdam

and you tell the boys.

The house is sold out,

but it's not just that.

This is supposed to be a

Goodwill tour, remember?

Go ahead, Paul. Call Amsterdam.

Cancel the show.

Tell them you ran into a girl.

Call.

604, please.

Bix, this is Paul.

Will you do me a favor?

Find out if there are

any American ships in port.

Yeah, ships.

Boats.

Liners, tramp

steamers, tankers, anything.

Right away, will you?

I'll call its close. It's

five o'clock in the morning.

Hotel Flower Shop should stay open night

and day in case of emergencies.

I don't have a key.

But you do have the

address of a glass company.

There's no doubt in my mind, sir, that you will select Red Roses.

Darling, I forgot something.

Something very important.

Paul, what are you doing here?

Greta, will you marry me?

What did you say? I can't hear you.

I said I love you. Will you marry me?

Yes, Paul.

Yes.

Yes, I will.

Yes. Yes, I will. Yes. Yes, I will.

Yes.

But this is the only way we can get

married, right away.

I'd like to help you out, Mr. Stableton.

Captain, we've got to

play Amsterdam tonight.

Don't especially go

for your kind of music.

Like Square Dance, myself.

Yeah, but my two daughters swear by you.

Well, you can't get

married while we're in port.

We'll have to get outside

of territorial waters first.

I don't care if we have to

sail all the way to Iceland.

Iceland?

It's cold there for a honeymoon, eh?

All right. I'll take her out.

Thank you, Captain.

Do you, Paul, take this woman to be your

lawfully wedded wife?

I do.

And do you, Greta, take this man to be

your lawfully wedded husband?

Do you take this man to be your...

No. No. No. No. Greta.

I'm sorry.

What's wrong, darling?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Yes, it is stranger to me.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. What's wrong, darling? I don't know. I don't know. Yes, it is stranger to me. I don't know. And, um...

And, um, you are...

It's only a little time to be born, and

only a second to die.

How much time does one

need to fall in love?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Dying is one thing you

must decide for yourself.

It's whether you love me or not.

My grandmother used to say that love was

like a basket with two handles.

It needs two people to carry it.

But if you picked it

up, they never drop it.

There's a whole happiness in it.

I do love you, Pa.

Shall I call the captain?

Yes.

[thunder]

Reuse of today.

[music]

[applause]

Much better than the alarm clock.

That's so reliable. It's 11 o'clock.

You said something about

wanting to go shopping.

Just for a moment.

And just one more kiss.

[music]

We never get to unpack, Mrs. Dablin.

That's what happens when

you marry a band leader.

Pa.

Hmm?

Be a nice boy, Anne.

Go away?

No.

Hand me my sniffers.

Look in my green suitcase.

That's your service, ma'am.

Mm-hmm.

I didn't know I'd

married such a wealthy woman.

I said the green one, didn't I?

[music]

There's nothing wrong

with having money, darling.

Have you told me how

to propose much sooner?

[laughs]

I, um...

I carry it in case of emergency.

If you treat me badly for example, I can

always buy a ticket to a street.

All right.

I hire some sinister

character to beat you up.

Better hire two.

You made a new man out of me.

Better who, boy?

[knocking]

[music]

Well, hello, Mrs. Dablin.

Good evening, Trippie.

Hello.

How'd you like the two doves?

Two doves?

I'm from the river. I

saw you there last night.

You must be mistaken, Trippie.

Oh, well, don't tell me there are two

Gretters in the world.

That's impossible.

I'll tell you, if I see the other one,

I'll marry her immediately.

Well, then there must be two reasons.

I've never been to that place in my life.

But I saw you there.

Sorry, I have to hurry up now.

See you after the show.

Goodbye.

Goodbye. Bye, dear.

You'd better see a nice specialist, bud.

Or maybe a psychiatrist.

Maybe you'd think elephants, but when you

start seeing people who aren't there--

Oh, shut up.

Look, I tell you, I saw them.

And I wasn't drunk.

[music]

[music]

I guess that about does it.

Hey, we've gotta get going.

Wow, Vienna.

Last time I was there, I met a real sharp

chick at the tambourine.

I wish you a happy reunion.

Hello, darling.

Hi, honey.

You've gone a long time.

You finished your shopping?

Oh, just bought some cash, don't you?

The buying doesn't take much time.

Only the deciding.

You'd better hurry now.

The plane leaves in an hour.

Oh, yes.

I'll pay the hotel bill.

[door opens]

There are three Greta's now.

This time I saw another one go into a

strange neighborhood.

Via Fiore was the name

of the street, number 17.

And one of my

fiancés lives at number 16.

Now, isn't that a

strange coincidence, Greta?

I mean, this time it

was you, definitely you.

[laughs]

To be.

This time it bought me.

I was looking for an old

miniature painting there.

Who's supposed to be very good?

Is he?

Yes.

And he knows it, too.

Like it's expensive.

So I didn't buy anything.

That's right, Greta.

They can be very expensive.

Hey, did you see a girl go

in here about an hour ago?

Redhead?

Pretty?

I think I did.

What's the name of the miniature painter

that lives in this place?

Painter?

There's no painter in this house.

No painter, huh?

Yes.

You sure?

Absolutely.

Hey, Chippy, we'll miss the plane.

[thunder]

Who is it?

Oh, just a moment.

[thunder]

Coming now, please.

My dear, let me

present Mr. Paul Stapleton.

I do.

I've heard so many of

your echoes, Mrs. Stapleton.

I never thought we would meet.

And I've heard your

recordings, Miss Henning.

You have a lovely voice.

You have a beautiful

admiration society, eh?

That makes it much easier.

Easier?

You see, our wonderful idea.

Here in Vienna, we really

have an international city.

Four zones, five nations,

you'd recall, there's also two.

So I thought, would it be

wonderful if tomorrow night,

later Henning, the great singing star

would sing one number or two

with the great Chopin of Paul Stapleton?

Why not?

We'd be delighted.

I don't think you.

Oh, wonderful.

So the fattle.

Not quite, because I have

to get a special permission.

I'm sure there will be no difficulty.

I have telephone and battery cranked.

You two pick the sounds and do the rest.

Now, if you will excuse

me, before an opening night,

always so much to do.

Certainly.

Won't you sit down, please?

Thank you.

These are the sounds I have done now.

Would you like to look through them?

Or do you prefer something else?

Let's see.

How about this one?

We have an arrangement on it.

Yes.

Fine.

From whom may I ask you to get special

permission to sing with that?

From General Kollinkopf.

General?

With the government.

I don't get it.

We don't have to ask

Eisenhower if we can play for you.

General Kollinkopf is my fiancé.

Oh.

Well, I never met the man,

but I'll say one thing for him.

He has excellent taste.

Thank you very much.

Come in.

Mr. Hernan, I'm happy to inform you that

General Kollinkopf has given you the

permission to sing with American.

May I introduce you to Colonel Sidro,

General Kollinkopf's headcount, Mr.

Stapleton, the

American Office of the Media.

How do you do?

I'm glad things worked out so that we can

do the show tomorrow night, Ummus Henny.

Are you familiar with our type of music?

We have such clubs in Moscow.

Sometimes we clog them.

Sometimes we often them

again, but we have them.

I'm glad to hear that.

Now, if you'll excuse us, we have to pick

out some more songs tomorrow night.

And now, ladies and gentlemen, a rare treat indeed.

The double delight of Paul's separate music and Dana Henny's voice. ♪ Sweet moments like this ♪

music stops)

Hey, Walt.

Paul, you can be as sore as you like.

You can punch me in the nose

if it'll do you any good, but--

But you've got to listen--

I won't listen, and that's the end of it.

We're crazy about each other.

What do you want me to believe?

That she cheats on me?

Look, Paul, we don't want to believe

anything bad about Greta

any more than you do.

But answer one question, will ya?

Where is she now?

At past midnight.

It's none of your business.

But just to set your minds at ease, she's

with her aunt and bottom.

Are you sure?

Of course I'm sure.

Then why don't you call her and ask her

if you can drive out and pick her up?

I trust my wife.

If I didn't, I

wouldn't be married to her.

Well, that's fine for you, Paul.

But call her for my sake, not for yours.

I have no confidence in

Greta, and I'm your friend.

So put my mind at ease.

Look, I know you guys mean well.

But you're wrong.

This can be about Greta.

And, Carter.

Will you get me the number of baronets,

kersh and boden, please?

One moment, please.

Never mind.

Good evening, assistant.

I've a new greeting for my aunt.

Good evening, Mrs. Taber.

What's the matter?

Don't you love me anymore?

Too lazy to get up and kiss me.

Just lie there and say,

"Evening, Mrs. Taber."

Come here, Mrs. Taber.

Love me.

I wouldn't know what to do if you didn't.

What do you mean?

I've been buying plane tickets for years,

and I always pay by check.

You should be sorry.

Government regulations.

I don't have that

much cash at the moment.

Wait a minute.

Okay, stop by. I'll

have the cash for you.

It's very convenient to have a wife with

a lot of money, darling.

I'd like to borrow that

roll of yours for a few days.

Quite a life. I'd like

to give it to you, Pa.

But I don't have it anymore.

If I don't even know what you're--

What do you have to do with it?

I bought a fur coat.

What do you mean you bought a fur coat?

Yes, to be at the Plaza Farias.

A mink.

It was a tremendous bargain.

When you get a mink coat, darling, I'd

like to do the buying.

If you wanted one,

why didn't you tell me?

Well, it isn't for me.

It isn't my money, you silly thing.

My uncle in Hamburg, you remember him.

He gave me the money and asked me to buy

a fur coat for his wife.

She's sick. It's supposed

to be a surprise for her.

Well, of course that's different.

Well, I must be off now.

I have an appointment

with the hairdresser.

Want to be back?

It's two or three hours.

The hairdresser loads will take an hour.

Well, good-bye.

Just a minute.

Haven't you forgotten something?

What?

Do it.

I'm calling for Mrs. Paul Stapleton about

a mink coat she bought yesterday.

Hello? There must be some mistake. You

have no record of such a purchase.

She bought it yesterday. It's for

Baroness Wispach and Hamburg.

Sorry, sir. We have no record of the

sale. We have a sold mink

coat in the past five days.

Thank you. [music]

I'd like the number of the Baroness

Kirsch and Baden, please.

Thank you. One moment, please.

Number is 11502. Thank you.

Can you get it for me, please?

Hello?

Can you speak to the

Baroness Kirsch, please?

I'm sorry. The Baroness died six months

ago. We rented the house.

Hello? Hello?

[music]

Thanks, you please.

[music]

Thank you.

Well? I'm sorry, Mr. Stapleton. I don't

quite know what to say.

Corita and I love each other.

You married me? Why? Why?

I...

She married you on the

rebound. It happens every day.

You're a liar!

I understand how you feel, Mr. Stapleton.

Corita and I, we had a

quarrel. We patched it up.

We started to meet again right after your

marriage in Paris, in

Florence, in London.

And now here in Vienna. You

might as well know the facts.

I'm rather glad you came here. I argued

with Corita. I wanted her to tell you.

But she refused. Now you know.

Corita, look at...

Give dreams that we have done.

Look at me!

Can you tell me to my

face what he says is true?

Yes, to us. It is true.

I was going to tell you anyway today.

Paul.

What do you want?

There's something I have to tell you.

I won't believe a

word of it. Don't bother.

I lied to you, Paul.

You don't have to tell me that.

I know. But I have to

explain just one of the lies.

Koenig and I were never lovers.

I'd die if you ever touched me.

The lies you and I had

together began and ended with a lie.

But between those lies were the most

beautiful days in my life.

You sound almost convincing.

I didn't applaud at the club in Munich

because I wanted you to notice me.

I ran into your car purposely.

I went to Hamburg because

I knew you would be there.

And I asked my uncle to

invite you to his home.

What seems like fate to you was all

deliberately planned.

Planned?

What?

I was ordered to make

you fall in love with me.

You were on tour in Europe, an American,

a famous band leader.

The police at the frontiers

don't look for your luggage.

It was figured that your wife's luggage

wouldn't be examined either.

As your wife, I could carry money to pay

the party's agents in

different countries.

Why are you telling me this now?

Because I love you.

And because I know you love me.

I couldn't go on

knowing how much I felt you.

I decided the truth would

be more bearable for you.

It would.

If I could believe you.

You will.

They know I came here.

I was afraid of ways of dealing with

people who break their rules.

Greta, how did you get into this mess?

I was young and confused.

My parents were killed during the war.

The pattern of living was gone.

They say they have the answer.

They don't.

But I was trapped before I found out.

The night after the party.

I knew I was falling in love with you.

I tried to prevent it.

Do you remember what I said?

I make it easy for you.

I'm all bad.

Leave and never see me again.

You meant it.

Yes, Pa.

I meant it.

[music]

Follow them.

[music]

Kippy, I'm going to talk to him.

It won't do any good.

Let him sweat it out.

But, man, he's locked

himself in that room six hours ago.

It'll be all right.

There must be something we can do.

Sure, sure.

Get the Marines and rescue the ladies.

Shut that thing off.

This is no time for it.

Bix, didn't I ask you to

shut the quiet, will you?

[radio] You have just been listening to Lena

Henning's half hour of song.

Broadcast every night from 10 to 10.30.

Now for our regular news program.

Wasn't that--

Yeah, the girl that

sang with us in Vienna.

The Russian general's

girlfriend. She's quite a dish.

Saying that general must

be a big wheel over there.

I read about him. He's a large operator.

He's pretty gone on this canary, too.

What are you driving at?

I don't know.

Something's beginning to simmer.

She's in the eastern zone. So's the

general. So's Greta.

I got it.

Well, come on, Jim.

It's simple. It's brilliant.

It may even work. Say, Paul.

[music]

[singing]

Excuse, please.

Difficulties with

technical equipment. Don't go away.

Drink up. It'll do you good.

Mmm. Bollinger, 47.

This is an outrage, Mr. Stapleton.

Yes, I know.

Let's be good ones.

Not until you've

written that little letter.

Suppose I scream for help.

They'll think you're

rehearsing a new song.

[singing]

If you've ever dreamed of

visiting the Holy Land...

[speaking in foreign language]

So, are you the

bungly-cub-witted idiot who lost his head?

How dare you kidnap

people without my permission?

But, Congress...

Come on, Olifo, please.

It's we. It's we alone.

Who decides who is to be

kidnapped and who isn't?

Yes, Colonel.

Then what do you mean?

Acting without my order.

You know what has happened?

It's all superior. It's warm, Mama.

A lot of Democrats

kidnapped Elena Herring.

But that's

impossible. They wouldn't dare.

Not those law-abiding Americans.

Don't be a fool. Here is her letter.

They won't let her go

until we release this, uh...

What's her name? Greta

Norman. Where is she?

We are sending her east. We

haven't requested her yet.

We can't?

Can't we?

And who are you, Connick, to tell us what

we cannot...can't do?

But General will be present.

You better be very careful.

I want you to be with that Norman girl at

the zone border at three o'clock sharp.

We want this exchange to take

place at an isolated border.

The fewer people who

see this, the better.

I'll call this

department and tell him myself.

Con, on the double.

But that's impossible.

If you do that, my whole intelligence

network in the West will be finished.

You mean you will be finished?

I've seldom seen a man more

expandable than you, Connick.

Get out before I spend you myself.

Give me Mr. Stepleton.

There's a Carlton

hotel in the West section.

Yes, you helped me arrive. West.

You know, Mr. Stepleton, I wouldn't mind

staying on the western

side, except for one thing.

What's that?

Your general seemed to be married.

Are you all right? Of

course I'm all right.

Except I will freeze to death

if you keep me standing here.
