The Gracie Allen Murder Case (1939) [Complete Movie]

Order: Reorder
Duration: 75:06
Updated: 27 Sep 2013

One-of-a-kind film starring Gracie without George, this movie was based on a Philo Vance novel by S.S. Van Dyne that featured Gracie's character in its plot. Although George was also included as a character in the novel, he stayed behind the scenes for the movie. In most of their previous film appearances, Burns and Allen were merely comedy relief to whatever the main plot was. Here, however, Gracie is the driving force behind the plot for the entire film. This is quite a funny, well done spoof of formula B movie mysteries of the era, heads and shoulders above most of the work George and Gracie did in Hollywood films. The video is on the fuzzy side, but as usual, the best I could do with the source material. This is an all-too obscure item in the Burns and Allen catalog, well worth watching for fans who have probably never Gracie given dialogue this good in any other film! Also starring Warren Williams as Philo Vance, William Demarest as an exasperated police sergeant, and Donald MacBride as the District Attorney. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0031389/reference

Updated: 05 Feb 2014

Τετάρτη 05 Φεβρουαρίου 2014 «Εφυγε» η Τζένη Βάνου- Μένουν τα τραγούδια της αθάνατα στον χρόνο Η φωνή της «σημάδεψε» γενιές και γενιές... Δεν υπάρχει τραγούδι της που να μην είναι συνδεδεμένο με κάποια στιγμή μας... Η τραγουδίστρια που έγινε «είδωλο» μέσα από τον παλιό ελληνικό κινηματογράφο αλλά και τις εμφανίσεις της στο μουσικό στερέωμα, «έφυγε» σήμερα από την ζωή. Η φωνή της όμως θα μας θυμίζει πάντα το πέρασμά της, θα μείνει αθάνατη να μας θυμίζει πόσο μοναδική ήταν η Τζένη Βάνου. Η τραγουδίστρια άφησε την τελευταία της πνονή σήμερα το πρωί στο Νοσοκομείο ΜΕΤΑΞΑ Τον Αύγουστο έκανε επέμβαση στον λαιμό της για να αφαιρέσουν έναν όγκο . «Όλα κυλούσαν ομαλά και από τότε μέχρι και πριν λίγες ημέρες ένιωθε καλά» μας λέει συγγενικό της πρόσωπο. «Ένιωσε ξαφνικά πόνους στην μέση, τα παυσίπονα δεν την έπιαναν και πήγε στο νοσοκομείο, εκεί οι εξετάσεις έδειξαν πως ο καρκίνος έχει απλωθεί σε όλο της το σώμα ραγδαία» . Η κηδεία της θα γίνει στη Νέα Σμύρνη Η πορεία της Τζένης Βάνου Η Τζένη Βάνου είναι Ελληνίδα τραγουδίστρια, που διακρίθηκε με τη χαρακτηριστική φωνή της για αρκετές δεκαετίες στο ελαφρό και λαϊκό τραγούδι. Γεννήθηκε στις 10 Φεβρουαρίου 1939 στην Αθήνα. Το πραγματικό της όνομα ηταν Ευγενία Βραχνού. Οι γονείς της ήταν χωρισμένοι. Αρχικά σκόπευε να σπουδάσει στη Φυσικομαθηματική Σχολή, αλλά μετά τη γνωριμία της με τον συνθέτη Μίμη Πλέσσα, τον οποίο θεωρούσε μέντορά της, έδωσε εξετάσεις στο Εθνικό Ίδρυμα Ραδιοφωνίας. Ξεκίνησε την καριέρα της το 1959 σαν τραγουδίστρια ελαφράς ορχήστρας στον ραδιοφωνικό σταθμό της ΕΡΤ. Τραγούδησε πρώτη φορά μπροστά σε κοινό το 1964, όπου με το τραγούδι του Πλέσσα «Τώρα» πήρε το Α΄ βραβείο στο Φεστιβάλ Ελαφράς Μουσικής της Θεσσαλονίκης. Σύντομα καθιερώθηκε ως τραγουδίστρια του ελαφρού τραγουδιού και ερμήνευσε ντουέτα κυρίως με τον Γιάννη Βογιατζή. Στα τέλη του 1970, κυριάρχησε το λαϊκό τραγούδι και το 1982 συναντά τον Τόλη Βοσκόπουλο, ο οποίος της κλείνει συμβόλαιο στην Columbia κι έτσι γνώρισε μεγάλη επιτυχία και τραγουδώντας λαϊκά. Υπήρξε βασική ερμηνεύτρια και "μούσα" πολλών συνθετών. Ερμήνευσε τραγούδια του Μίμη Πλέσσα, του Μίκη Θεοδωράκη, του Γιώργου Μουζάκη, του Κώστα Γιαννίδη, του Ζακ Ιακωβίδη, του Αττίκ, του Αλέκου Χρυσοβέργη, του Τάκη Μουσαφίρη κ.ά. Έχει βραβευτεί για τη δουλειά της στην Ισπανία, την Πολωνία και την πρώην Σοβιετική Ένωση. Τα τελευταία χρόνια, ήταν μακριά από τη δισκογραφία. Info:http://www.newsbomb.gr
