“Maytime”: sing to the tree…

 

Happy May Day! A good time to watch “Maytime” with extra insight.  “Nelson… could not sing and look at her without crying. [Director] Leonard finally instructed Nelson to look to the tree beyond and sing to the tree…” From “Sweethearts”, Chapter 11. 

Today in J/N History

1947 Nelson and Jeanette reprise a radio version of the film "Sweethearts" for Screen Guild Theater. In this version they replace the song "Little Grey House in the West" with "Cricket on the Hearth," a duet not sung in the movie version.
