00:04:04Mr. Sousa's here, sir. Send him in.
00:04:08John Philip Sousa, principal musician reporting, sir.
00:04:10How long have you been bandmaster here, Sousa?
00:04:12Twelve years, sir.
00:04:13Well, isn't that long enough to knock some sense into that bunch of German dupes and Italian counts you have in that band of yours?
00:04:18Begging the Major's pardon, sir. What have we done now?
00:04:20Bring that man in here.
00:04:24What is your name?
00:04:25Private Little, sir. Private Willie Little.
00:04:26All right, Little. What have you got to say for yourself?
00:04:29Well, sir, it was like this. The Major knows how hot it was.
00:04:32Never mind how hot it was. We're not running the Marine Corps for your comfort.
00:04:34What I meant to say, sir, was, well, I was sitting there in my quarters shooting crafts when I got to thinking how nice that cold bottle of beer was.
00:04:39Stand at attention!
00:04:40Yes, sir.
00:04:41So I got up and I went out to the Corporal of the Guard and I said,
00:04:43Corporal, if you don't mind, I'd like to speak to the office of the day to get permission to leave the post for 15 minutes.
00:04:47But he said nothing doing for me to get my tail on back to my quarters.
00:04:50So I went back to my quarters again, sir.
00:04:52Only by now it was getting hotter and hotter and thirstier and thirstier.
00:04:56So you jumped over the wall and filled your belly full of rot and got liquor?
00:04:59I wouldn't say I filled my belly exactly full, sir, if the Major will excuse the expression.
00:05:03At least I could still walk when I came back.
00:05:05Only I've got to admit I didn't feel much like climbing over the wall again, so I decided to come in through the main gate.
00:05:10And that's where you made your big mistake?
00:05:12Yes, sir. Because when the Corporal saw me, he said something I don't let anybody say to me.
00:05:15So I said, I beg your pardon. And then I hit him and he hit me back.
00:05:19First thing I knew, it seemed like the whole battalion was hitting somebody.
00:05:21Who won?
00:05:22They did, sir.
00:05:23Never mind that. Have him wait outside.
00:05:25Yes, sir.
00:05:30Now, by George, there's a real old-time Marine for you.
00:05:33Even if he is only in the band.
00:05:36But, of course, we can't let him get away with it.
00:05:38He'll be confined to quarters and company punishment till further notice.
00:05:41Yes, sir.
00:05:42To begging the Major's pardon, sir, there must be some mistake.
00:05:45That man's not in my band.
00:05:47How's that?
00:05:48I never saw him before in my life.
00:05:50Bring that man back in here!
00:05:54What's this I hear about your not being in the band?
00:05:56Begging the Major's pardon, sir. I didn't say I was in the band. At least, not exactly.
00:05:59All I said was I only joined up so as I could be in the band.
00:06:02Oh. Well, that's all.
00:06:05Yes, sir.
00:06:10All right, so there's been a little mistake.
00:06:12If that doesn't change what I said about knocking some sense into that outfit of yours.
00:06:16Yes, sir.
00:06:17That's all, Susa.
00:06:20Uh, just a minute.
00:06:23What was that new march you played at retreat last night?
00:06:25The Washington Post march, sir.
00:06:27You write it?
00:06:28Yes, sir.
00:06:29That's not a bad, too.
00:06:31But that doesn't mean that you can waste all your time writing music.
00:06:34Remember, you've got a real job to do here.
00:06:36Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.
00:06:37That's all.
00:06:42I was not asking too much, young man. Just what instrument do you propose to play in the band?
00:06:49The Susaphone, of course.
00:06:52The Susa what?
00:06:53The Susaphone.
00:06:54I named it after you.
00:06:56You don't say.
00:06:57Well, that's certainly very flattering.
00:06:59What in heaven's name is a Susaphone?
00:07:01Well, I guess you'd say it's a kind of tuba, sir.
00:07:03Only it goes more like this.
00:07:05Ba-boom-boom-boom-boom.
00:07:07Oh, yes. Sounds delightful.
00:07:10Yes, sir.
00:07:11Let's hope you can think up some other improvements for the band while you're confined to your quarters for the next four days.
00:07:16Me, sir?
00:07:17Except, of course, while you're marching eight hours a day in a circle and a full field pack.
00:07:20I believe those are the Major's intentions.
00:07:22Yes, sir.
00:07:23Yes, sir.
00:07:34Yes, that was the Susa of the 90s. Sergeant Major Susa of the Marine Corps.
00:07:39And there was another Susa who, although an enlisted man, lived in his own home apart from the base.
00:07:45Susa the husband. Susa the father. Susa the citizen.
00:07:49Jenny?
00:07:50Jenny?
00:07:53Jenny?
00:07:54Coming.
00:07:55What have the name of All Get Out's been keeping you so long?
00:07:57I was hearing the children's prayers.
00:07:59Does that take all night?
00:08:00They were praying for you.
00:08:02Well, that's very thoughtful of them.
00:08:04But there's no need to overdo it.
00:08:06Jenny, I want you to hear this. It's a ballad. The best I've ever written.
00:08:09My George, they won't be able to change this into a march.
00:08:12Now, stop throwing off on your marches, dear. I think they're wonderful.
00:08:15Of course they're wonderful.
00:08:16But to hear people talk, you think they're all I can write.
00:08:18Sit down, dear.
00:08:19I'll sing it for you.
00:08:21No, dear. You play and I'll sing.
00:08:23Jenny, I want you to hear this right.
00:08:25Uh-huh.
00:08:26But please, dear, not too loudly. I don't want to alarm the neighborhood.
00:08:31The neighborhood be hanged.
00:08:32Come on, just sit down and play.
00:08:34My love is a weeping willow
00:08:49Bending beside a stream
00:08:55She sleeps
00:08:57She sleeps
00:08:59On her grassy pi...
00:09:01Hmm.
00:09:02Start at the same place, dear.
00:09:03She sleeps
00:09:05On her grassy pillow
00:09:07Deep in a lovely dream
00:09:19And there, like a swallow homing
00:09:23Swift
00:09:25To her arms I'll fly
00:09:27And there...
00:09:29Oh, I'm sorry, dear. I can't help it.
00:09:31I'd like to remind you that when I was a boy, I was considered a very good singer.
00:09:43Oh, I'm sure of it, dear. But you're a big boy now. Maybe your voice has changed.
00:09:47Very funny, very funny indeed.
00:09:49There, take that.
00:09:50Thank you.
00:09:51You're quite welcome. Now, just do as you're told. Play.
00:09:52Yes, sir.
00:09:53Yeah.
00:09:54And there...
00:09:56Like a swallow homing
00:10:08Jenny.
00:10:09Sorry.
00:10:11It's really a lovely tune, Philip. I'm not sure it isn't your best ballad.
00:10:16Not bad.
00:10:18Not bad at all.
00:10:22Only your public could see you now.
00:10:24You're very dignified and proper, Mr. Susan.
00:10:27Stonewall Jackson danced by himself.
00:10:29And he was not only dignified and proper, but...
00:10:31Oh, just put it down here, Nora.
00:10:33You're pious as well.
00:10:34Which is more than anyone can say for you.
00:10:36Thank you, Nora.
00:10:37No sarcasm, please. Just keep playing.
00:10:40I need exercise.
00:10:42I've been cooped up in this compounded house for the past four days.
00:10:45And we'll look at this storm at the... or more.
00:11:03Hello, Mr. Suzanne.
00:11:04Who's calling?
00:11:05Oh, just a friend of his.
00:11:06Is he expecting you?
00:11:07No, but he'll want to see me.
00:11:08It's kind of damp outside tonight, isn't it?
00:11:10Ought to be. It's raining.
00:11:11You know what this is?
00:11:12What?
00:11:13Well, I guess some people might call it a tuba.
00:11:15Only it's really not a tuba at all.
00:11:16Because between you and me and the lamppost, I never did like the tuba...
00:11:19And wouldn't play one if I had to.
00:11:21What you got against the tuba?
00:11:23Well, for one thing, it's... it's too loud.
00:11:26So I had this one made with a big upright bell.
00:11:29That lets the sound come out evenly over the whole band.
00:11:33Sort of like the frosting on a cake.
00:11:35Listen.
00:11:36What on earth?
00:11:40What the devil's going on out here?
00:11:42Oh, Mr. Sousa, remember me?
00:11:44Private Little.
00:11:45I just dropped by to show you that Sousa phone I was telling you about.
00:11:47Listen.
00:11:48Don't do that again.
00:11:49You'll wake up the children.
00:11:50Oh, I'm sorry.
00:11:51Well, it's quite all right, Mr. Little.
00:11:53The children are accustomed to strange noises in this house.
00:11:56I'm Mrs. Sousa.
00:11:57How do you do?
00:11:58I'm fine, ma'am.
00:11:59And I hope I didn't scare anybody.
00:12:00I just wanted Mr. Sousa to hear how good it'll sound in his band.
00:12:03Do you mean to say you came out in all this rain just for that?
00:12:05Well, not altogether, sir.
00:12:06What I really came by for was to see if you could go to a concert with me.
00:12:09To a what?
00:12:10To a concert, dear.
00:12:11That's right.
00:12:12On a night like this?
00:12:13I always say a concert sounds better if it's raining.
00:12:15Well, maybe some of you that.
00:12:17What kind of a concert?
00:12:18Oh, just a concert.
00:12:19Some fellow's going to sing some of your songs.
00:12:22What fellow?
00:12:23Oh, you wouldn't know him, Mr. Sousa,
00:12:24but when I told him I was going to bring you with me,
00:12:25he gave me a couple of passes.
00:12:27Did you see that?
00:12:28Yes, sir.
00:12:29Right down in front, too.
00:12:30Oh, imagine that, Philip.
00:12:32Right down in front.
00:12:33Well, really, dear, you know, you can't afford to miss that.
00:12:36Yes, but how can I go?
00:12:37Didn't you say Professor Estabon was coming over to play Pinochle?
00:12:40Oh, I'll take care of him.
00:12:41You know how absent-minded he is.
00:12:43He won't know whether you're here or not.
00:12:45Now, tell me, did this fellow mention what songs are mine he was going to sing?
00:12:48No, sir, he just said songs by John P. H. Sousa.
00:12:51Did he?
00:12:52Oh, well.
00:12:53I'll get your coat.
00:12:54Now, wait a minute, Ginny.
00:12:55What was that funny noise, Daddy?
00:12:57Never mind.
00:12:58Now, run back to bed, all of you.
00:12:59But what's that thing he's got around his neck?
00:13:01A monstrosity.
00:13:02Now, scoot.
00:13:03Nora, will you see that they get back to bed before they catch cold?
00:13:06Should I give them a dose of something just in case?
00:13:08Oh, I don't think that's necessary.
00:13:09Just see that they're covered up.
00:13:11What's his name?
00:13:12Come on, now, Ginny.
00:13:13Willie, Willie Little.
00:13:14What's yours?
00:13:15Priscilla Jane.
00:13:16Who's the big fellow next to you?
00:13:17John.
00:13:18John what?
00:13:19John Philip.
00:13:20John Philip what?
00:13:21Sousa.
00:13:22Junior.
00:13:23She's Helen.
00:13:24I'm Helen.
00:13:25Hello, Helen.
00:13:26Say good night to Mr. Little, darlings, and go along with Nora like good children.
00:13:30Good night, Mr. Little.
00:13:32Good night.
00:13:33Good night.
00:13:34Good night.
00:13:35Good night.
00:13:36What time does the concert start, Mr. Little?
00:13:38Regular time, 8.30.
00:13:39Oh, then you'd better hurry, Philip.
00:13:41But, Ginny, I haven't made up my mind, but this is the right thing to do.
00:13:43Now, slip it in this and button up good.
00:13:45Well, if you're worried about us getting wet, Mrs. Susie, you needn't, because I've got a cab waiting outside.
00:13:48Well, you appear to have thought of everything, young man.
00:13:50Just about, sir.
00:13:51There, now, go along and enjoy yourself.
00:13:53Very well, dear, but I warn you, if they start playing my marches instead of my songs, I...
00:13:57You'll just get up and walk right out, dear.
00:14:00Yes, ma'am.
00:14:01Good night, Mr. Little, and thanks for letting us know in time, and do come again.
00:14:05Thank you, ma'am, I will.
00:14:06Good night.
00:14:07Good night.
00:14:08Oh, and Philip, whatever it's like, please let the singer do his own singing.
00:14:10You sure this driver knows where he's going?
00:14:23Oh, yes, sir.
00:14:24We're there now.
00:14:25Look.
00:14:29This is the concert hall.
00:14:30Well, sir, they've got other acts, too.
00:14:32Young man, you lied to me.
00:14:34You deliberately enticed me to this debt of iniquity.
00:14:38Huh.
00:14:39However, since we're here, I suppose you might as well go in.
00:14:44You just pay the man and come along.
00:14:46Yes.
00:14:52Here you are, driver.
00:14:53Here you go, folks.
00:14:54Step right up and buy your tickets, folks.
00:14:56I've got the tickets, Mr. Susan.
00:14:57There's no waiting on the inside notion fusion.
00:15:00She's a gigantic and enthralling entertainer.
00:15:03I congratulate you and your taste, Mrs. Little.
00:15:05Which, I might add, is right up my avenue.
00:15:13Oh, why should the spirit of Martha be proud?
00:15:18Like the fast-lifting meteor, a fast-lying cloud,
00:15:23A flash of the lightning, a break of the wave,
00:15:28He passes from life to his rest in the grave.
00:15:37Tis but a wink of an eye or the draught of a breath,
00:15:44From the blossom of health to the paleness of death,
00:15:49From the gilded saloon to the field...
00:15:53Get the hook and bring on the show!
00:15:55That's right!
00:15:56Get that, undertaker!
00:15:58Don't pay attention to that, Mr. Susan.
00:16:01I like it.
00:16:02Then you're an idiot, too.
00:16:03That fellow's voice is atrocious.
00:16:05He's not singing it. He's belching it.
00:16:07Quick in the temple, ma'am. Bring up the music.
00:16:08Don't button up.
00:16:09You think I'm enjoying this any more than you are?
00:16:16Get the hook and bring on the ground!
00:16:29Scoundrel, nincompoop.
00:16:31Let's get out of here before that ass makes an even bigger ass of himself.
00:16:34Mr. Susan, maybe the next number will be better!
00:16:36Give the lady my song, she ought to be gone for it.
00:16:40Can we see just a little bit of this, Mr. Susan?
00:16:56No.
00:16:57Oh, just the beginning, Mr. Susan. We could sit right here.
00:17:00Not very well.
00:17:01I suppose there's no harm in waiting until my blood pressure goes down a bit.
00:17:06But there's no harm in waiting until we have the last one.
00:17:07And, like, the next verse is the hope.
00:17:08The last verse is the hope.
00:17:09And the last verse is the hope!
00:17:10And the last verse is the hope for its taste of the new heights.
00:17:11And the last verse is the hope.
00:17:12And the last set of numbers are so good!
00:17:13And the last verse is the hope that we've had for you.
00:17:14It's been a really long time in waiting until we're going to have a celebration of the love enigma.
00:17:16Applaus
00:17:46Applaus
00:17:49Applaus
00:17:53Applaus
00:17:56Applaus
00:18:00Applaus
00:18:05Keep your eye on this.
00:18:07Was habe ich gesagt, vielleicht war es ein accident.
00:18:18Das war kein accident. Das ist eine Sache passiert bei allen Ereignissen.
00:18:20Kommt auf!
00:18:23Everybody, keep your seats.
00:18:24Das Theater ist pinched.
00:18:25Me pinched?
00:18:27Where are we going?
00:18:28Why don't you go this way?
00:18:37Where are you taking me?
00:18:44Hey, here I am.
00:18:50Come on, Mr. Super.
00:18:51Let's go.
00:19:00Cab, Cab.
00:19:07Well, Lil, looks like we made it.
00:19:23Lil, you know this young lady?
00:19:26Sure, this is Miss Lily Becker.
00:19:27Lil, this is that friend of mine I was telling you about.
00:19:29Mr. Sousa.
00:19:30Oh, glad to meet you, Mr. Sousa.
00:19:33Thank you, Miss Becker.
00:19:35It's always a pleasure to meet young ladies
00:19:36whom I find sitting on my lap.
00:19:38Oh, I'm sorry.
00:19:56Good night, Professor.
00:19:58Good night.
00:19:58It's been very nice.
00:20:00Good night, John.
00:20:01It's been nice to have seen you again.
00:20:03Oh, wait, Professor.
00:20:04Your umbrella.
00:20:05Oh, yes, let me help you, Spencer.
00:20:08Oh, thank you.
00:20:17Get inside, go on.
00:20:19Lil, why are you going home so early?
00:20:22I didn't expect you for another hour.
00:20:24I'd rather come home or go to jail.
00:20:26To jail?
00:20:26That's what I said.
00:20:28But for the agility of my good friend here,
00:20:30we all might be in the calaboose at this moment.
00:20:31Please come in.
00:20:32But why?
00:20:32What happened?
00:20:33I believe the police considered it an indecent performance, my dear.
00:20:36I beg your pardon?
00:20:37What was indecent about it?
00:20:38In my opinion, not a thing.
00:20:39I considered the exhibition as delightfully innocent as a butterfly.
00:20:43But apparently the bile of the sedate was upset
00:20:45when one of the young lady's tights had the misfortune to split.
00:20:48Philip, what on earth are you talking about?
00:20:50About tights, my dear.
00:20:52Tights.
00:20:52At a concert?
00:20:53Oh, this is a very extraordinary concert, Jenny.
00:20:55You should have been there.
00:20:56King Solomon gave a big blowout,
00:20:58the like of which you never saw.
00:20:59Claire Patter went sailing down the Nile to call on Caesar.
00:21:02Oh, by the way,
00:21:03this is one of the handmaidens of the Queen,
00:21:04Miss Lily Becker.
00:21:05Miss Becker, my wife.
00:21:06How do you do, Miss Becker?
00:21:07And don't mind my husband.
00:21:08He's just teasing.
00:21:09It's all right.
00:21:10You know, he thinks it's funny,
00:21:11but I don't happen to.
00:21:13And I don't have to stay anywhere and be insulted.
00:21:16Come on, Williams.
00:21:16No, no, no, please.
00:21:17No, Philip, tell her you're sorry and behave yourself.
00:21:20I'm sorry, Miss Becker.
00:21:21I apologize.
00:21:22You needn't bother.
00:21:23Wait a minute.
00:21:24Hadn't you better go upstairs with my wife first
00:21:26and see if you can find something less,
00:21:28shall we say, revealing to put on?
00:21:30I'm not ashamed of what I'm wearing.
00:21:33Here's your coat.
00:21:34Good night.
00:21:34Lil, you can't go out like that.
00:21:36You're liable to get arrested or something.
00:21:37What if I do?
00:21:37What business is it of yours?
00:21:39Well, it's plenty of my business,
00:21:39especially after all the trouble I went to
00:21:41just to introduce you to Mr. Sousa.
00:21:42Look, nobody asked you to introduce me to him.
00:21:44It was your big idea, not mine.
00:21:45Sure, but how did I know the show was going to be rated?
00:21:47All I was going to do was bring him backstage afterwards
00:21:49so as we could fix it up for him to hear you sing sometime.
00:21:51Oh, so that's what you were up to, eh?
00:21:53Yes, sir.
00:21:53Only I couldn't tell you beforehand
00:21:54because how'd I know you wouldn't get on your high horse
00:21:56and maybe not come at all?
00:21:57True, true.
00:21:57It was a gamble.
00:21:58Yes, sir.
00:21:58Do me a favor.
00:21:59Go jump in the river and don't come up.
00:22:01Lil.
00:22:02I don't blame you for being angry, Miss Becker.
00:22:04If I were in your place, I'd be perfectly furious.
00:22:07But I'm sure Mr. Little didn't mean any harm.
00:22:09And as to hearing you sing,
00:22:10my husband would be delighted, won't you, Philip?
00:22:12If you say so, dear.
00:22:13When?
00:22:15Well, I might say that you...
00:22:16Whatever Miss Becker wishes.
00:22:17Well, then how about now?
00:22:18Come on, Lil, while he's in the mood.
00:22:19I'll play for you.
00:22:20Like this?
00:22:21Why, I think you look charming like this.
00:22:27Do you mind if we push the furniture back a little bit,
00:22:28Mr. Sousa?
00:22:29Oh, not at all.
00:22:30Then how about giving me a hand, Mr. Sousa?
00:22:32Certainly, young man.
00:22:33Nothing will give me more pleasure.
00:22:34We can put this right over here, sir.
00:22:35How much space does she need?
00:22:37Not too much, sir.
00:22:38I'm glad of that.
00:22:39We're not used to having exhibitions in this room.
00:22:41Wait a minute, Lil.
00:22:42Give me your hand.
00:22:42Have a good one.
00:22:44Thanks.
00:22:45You ready?
00:22:46Yeah.
00:22:51My daddy you'll find is sweet and kind and loving as he can be.
00:23:01He's gentle and shy, wouldn't harm a fly.
00:23:05But he has one peculiarity.
00:23:12Years ago, poor father had sunstroke and it drove him mad.
00:23:16Every now and then he'll go off his onion, don't you know?
00:23:19Yesterday he killed our cat with a blooming cricket bat.
00:23:22But when to smother me, he tried, mother and the children cried, father's got him, father's got him, father's got him, got the hike of flukes of the brain.
00:23:37He's walking around the houses without his coat and trousers.
00:23:41Whoops, father's got him coming on again.
00:23:44With a hatchet in his hand, he broke up the washing stand on the window ledge, he squats, chucking up the flower pots.
00:23:56Eight a pound of bailing wire, then he set the house on fire.
00:24:00She had a tear for sister Sue.
00:24:04He tried to shove her up the floor.
00:24:08Woo!
00:24:34Father's got him, father's got him, got the hike of flukes of the brain.
00:24:45He's underneath the table singing, darling Mabel.
00:24:49Father's got him, yes, father's got him, yes, father's got him coming on again.
00:25:00Oh, thank you, Miss Becker.
00:25:02That was very nice.
00:25:04Wasn't it? Wasn't it, Philip?
00:25:06Yes, yes, very, very pretty indeed.
00:25:10I see no reason why if Miss Becker devotes herself to study for the next four or five years, she shouldn't earn a very fair living in the theater.
00:25:18But of course, as our young friend here probably forgot to tell her, I'm really no judge.
00:25:23After all, I'm only the leader of a brass band.
00:25:27Come along with me, my dear. I think I have a dress that will look very nice on you.
00:25:31Shall we rearrange the stage for the next act, young man?
00:25:34What? Oh, yes, sir.
00:25:35Sir, fantastic.
00:25:36Since the days of John Adams, second president of the United States, the Marine Band has been known as the president's own.
00:25:51As leader of that band, it was Sousa's privilege to serve under no fewer than five chief executives.
00:25:56Rutherford B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, Chester Arthur, Grover Cleveland, and Benjamin Harrison.
00:26:01Rutherford B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, Chester Arthur, Grover Cleveland, and Benjamin Harrison.
00:26:31Rutherford B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, by the time I need to acknowledge the court that could take into consideration of the president's own civil war.
00:26:34Here we are, Mr. Mr. Harrison.
00:26:35Senator and Mrs. Shaw.
00:26:51His Excellency, Lord and Lady Blair.
00:26:54Good evening, Lord.
00:26:56Good evening, Norbert.
00:26:57Mrs Harris.
00:26:58Sandra and Mrs Kipling.
00:26:59Good evening, man.
00:27:01Mighty fine party you have.
00:27:02Sure beats anything you'll see out in my neck of the woods.
00:27:05Oh, say, have you had a chance to think over that postmaster business
00:27:08we were talking about last week, Mr President?
00:27:10Not yet, Senator.
00:27:11But I...
00:27:12You couldn't pick a better man for the job.
00:27:14He votes right every time.
00:27:16And he's got a heap of kinfolk that votes too.
00:27:18Oh, say it.
00:27:26Excuse me, Mr Souza.
00:27:31Yes?
00:27:32The President wonders if the band could play something a little more lively tonight.
00:27:35Why, of course.
00:27:36We'll be delighted.
00:27:37Thank you.
00:27:38I was under the impression he preferred chamber music.
00:27:40He does as a rule, but there's so many long-winded office seekers here tonight.
00:27:44I understand.
00:27:45Tell the President we'll do what we can to alleviate the situation.
00:27:47Thank you, sir.
00:27:56Gentlemen, number 11.
00:27:58Dumbs, trombones, cymbals, scissor phone.
00:28:26Wonderful, wonderful.
00:28:36The President says keep it up.
00:28:37And with even more spirits.
00:28:38Certainly.
00:28:51Excuse me, Mr Souza.
00:28:52Would you mind telling me what that tune is?
00:28:54It's Mr. Sousa's latest ballad.
00:28:56Ballad?
00:28:58Dedicated to the Marine Corps
00:29:00and entitled Semper Fidelis.
00:29:02Always faithful.
00:29:04Well, it's just wonderful.
00:29:06Tell him he saved the day.
00:29:24Mr. Sousa, Secretary of Navy gives me great pleasure to present to you this special award in recognition of your new march, Semper Fidelis.
00:29:52It may interest you to know that yours is the only musical composition in the history of our country which has received the official recognition of the government.
00:30:01Thank you, sir.
00:30:05Splendid march, Mr. Sousa.
00:30:07Thank you, Mr. Secretary.
00:30:09At ease, Sousa.
00:30:11I hope this little medal will put a stop to all the talk I've been hearing about you planning to leave the Corps.
00:30:16How's that? You're not thinking of leaving the Marine Corps, Sousa?
00:30:19Yes, sir.
00:30:20But why, man? Why?
00:30:21Because I have five hungry mouths to feed, sir.
00:30:24I have no choice.
00:30:25But great guns, the Marine Corps won't be the Corps without Sousa.
00:30:28I'm sure there must be some very sound arguments against that statement, sir.
00:30:31But for the life of me, I can't think of a single one at the moment.
00:30:34What are you planning to do, Sousa?
00:30:36Go to New York, sir, and organize my own band.
00:30:38But that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of.
00:30:41With every band in the country already driving people crazy with your marches, you ought to be able to live right here in any style you want.
00:30:47I wish that were true, sir.
00:30:49But the melancholy fact is that for my three best-known marches, the Washington Post, High School Cadets, and Semper Fidelis, I received the grand total of exactly $105.
00:31:00The devil, you say?
00:31:01Exactly, sir.
00:31:02Well, but what about taking the Marine Band on tour again this year?
00:31:09I'm sure the tour will be as successful as ever without me, sir.
00:31:12When do you want to leave?
00:31:13My enlistment will be up in ten days, Mr. Secretary. As soon after that as possible.
00:31:18Very well. In the meantime, if there's anything we can do to show our appreciation to the work you've done here, let me know.
00:31:24Thank you, sir. I can think of nothing.
00:31:28What was that?
00:31:29That, sir, was a peculiar instrument known as the sousaphone, which is not only unique, but in the opinion of the young man who plays it indispensable.
00:31:38I suspect he was reminding me that if he also could be discharged...
00:31:41He'd like to go with you?
00:31:42Yes, sir.
00:31:43You'd like to have him?
00:31:44With certain misgivings, yes, sir.
00:31:46How about it, Major? Do you think we can spare this indispensable young man?
00:31:51Well, if that sound he just made is an example of his ability as a musician, I think we might very well make an exception in his case.
00:31:57Then, by all means, let us do so.
00:31:59Thank you, sir.
00:32:00That will be all, Sousa.
00:32:08Thank you, sir.
00:32:09Thank you, sir.
00:32:38Good morning, gentlemen.
00:32:39Good morning.
00:32:40Before beginning our auditions, let's be sure that we understand each other thoroughly.
00:32:45This is to be no ordinary brass band bound by outmoded precedents and traditions.
00:32:50Our job, our only job, will be to put on a good show.
00:32:53Which means that if our audiences prefer Turkey in the Straw to Parsifal, we'll play Turkey in the Straw.
00:32:59And let there be no mistake about this, I shall be the leader of this band, which means that if your interpretation of a score turns counter to mine, mine will prevail.
00:33:12Thank you, sir.
00:33:14While ours will be a civilian organization, we'll live and work under what may strike you as military discipline.
00:33:20A great part of our time will be spent on tour both here and abroad.
00:33:24You will therefore accommodate your domestic arrangements to the demands of the band.
00:33:29In plain language, this means that under no circumstances will wives be permitted to travel with husbands.
00:33:35Now then, are there any questions?
00:33:38Huh?
00:33:39Very well, we'll take the cornets first.
00:33:41Will you kindly step on the stage, please, gentlemen?
00:33:43Thank you.
00:33:44Mr. Sousa.
00:33:45Yes?
00:33:46Excuse me, sir, but what about a singer with the band?
00:33:47What singer?
00:33:48Surely, sir, you're gonna have a singer with the band.
00:33:50Am I?
00:33:51Surely, sir, if you're gonna break precedents and traditions, you've got to be progressive.
00:33:53And how can a band be more progressive than by using singers?
00:33:56Of the fair sex, I take it, are not too unattractive to look at?
00:33:59Well, naturally not, sir.
00:34:00You wouldn't by any chance have some candidate of mine for this progressive role?
00:34:04Come to think of it, sir, I have. I'll be right back.
00:34:13Come on, Lil. He's crazy about it.
00:34:14I know exactly how crazy he is about it.
00:34:16You do?
00:34:17Yes.
00:34:18And I also know you lied to me again.
00:34:20Why, why, he hadn't the faintest idea of hiring a singer for his band.
00:34:23Well, how do you know he hadn't?
00:34:24I listened through the crack in the door, that's how.
00:34:26You mean to say you've been eavesdropping?
00:34:28To every word you said.
00:34:29Oh!
00:34:30Here I, here I let you talk me into giving up a perfectly good job in Washington to come to New York,
00:34:34only to find out you hadn't even mentioned the subject to him.
00:34:37You didn't have to kick so hard.
00:34:38Oh, you haven't felt anything yet if this turns out to be another one of your wild goose chases.
00:34:43Oh!
00:34:44Oh!
00:34:45Oh!
00:34:46Oh!
00:34:47Oh!
00:34:48Oh!
00:34:49Oh!
00:34:50Oh!
00:34:51Oh!
00:34:52Oh!
00:34:53Oh!
00:34:54Oh!
00:34:55Oh!
00:34:56Oh!
00:34:57Oh!
00:34:58Oh!
00:34:59Thank you, madam.
00:35:00Thank you.
00:35:01That was splendid.
00:35:02Ah, Mr. Little.
00:35:03Good morning, Miss Becker.
00:35:05How nice of you to come for our tryout.
00:35:07We'll endeavor to get to you a little later on.
00:35:09Meanwhile, let me introduce you to madam Estelle Liebling,
00:35:12of the Metropolitan Opera, whom I engaged several days ago to sing with the band.
00:35:17Several days ago?
00:35:18Yes.
00:35:19In one of my more progressive moments.
00:35:20How do you do?
00:35:21Thank you, madam.
00:35:22Oh, yes.
00:35:23The cornets.
00:35:24Now, what is your name, please?
00:35:27Hermann Bratish.
00:35:28Hermann Bratish.
00:35:29A passage of triple tonguing, please.
00:35:31It's all right, my dear.
00:35:32We'll talk about it later.
00:35:33Thank you, sir.
00:35:34That was very good.
00:35:35But what I really had in mind was something more like this.
00:35:38Thank you, sir.
00:35:39That was very good.
00:35:40But what I really had in mind was something more like this.
00:35:53Would you care to try again?
00:36:12Whether it was triple tonguing on the trumpet or a simple roll of the timpani, Sousa had but one standard, the best.
00:36:30From all corners of the earth, they were assembled.
00:36:33Such men as Arthur Smith, solo cornetist of London's elite Coldstream Guard.
00:36:38Henry Koch, America's great French horn player.
00:36:42A youthful Arthur Pryor, trombonist, who a few years later would lead his own distinguished band.
00:36:48Monsieur Jambon, bassoonist of the Paris Conservatory.
00:36:51John S. Cox, Scotch flutist.
00:36:54Richard Messinger, oboist.
00:36:57Herr Schmidt, bass drummer and timpanist from the Garde Corps of Berlin.
00:37:02All coming together at the opening of the Great World's Fair in Chicago to form the most famous band the world has ever known.
00:37:10Sousa's Band.
00:37:21.
00:37:32And.
00:37:34Yeah.
00:37:40.

00:40:29Und dann zu fast alle Land der Welt.
00:40:32Das würde ihn für ihn gewinnen, den Titel, »The March King«.

00:42:08Go!
00:42:10If you're not prepared to do as I tell you, why do you bother coming here at all?
00:42:12I've been wondering about that myself.
00:42:14Oh, wicked ungrateful girl!
00:42:16I tell Mr. Souza how he's been rewarded
00:42:18for all the time and the money he's wasted on your lessons.
00:42:20You won't have to tell him. I'll tell him myself.
00:42:22Oh!
00:42:24Hey, why are you through so early?
00:42:26I'm not through so early. I'm through for good.
00:42:28I'm tired of trying to make myself over into something I'm not.
00:42:30From now on, if you or anybody else
00:42:32doesn't like the way I sing, you don't have to listen.
00:42:34Well, who said anything about not liking the way...
00:42:36I'd never be able to sing the sort of stuff
00:42:38that man wants me to sing.
00:42:40What sort of stuff?
00:42:42Who does he think I am? Jenny Lind?
00:42:44Oh!
00:42:46No!
00:42:47No!
00:42:48No!
00:42:49Not at all!
00:42:50Me!
00:42:51Oh!
00:42:52The, the!
00:42:53Oh!
00:42:54Oh!
00:42:55Oh!
00:42:57Oh!
00:42:59ZIE DE L'AMOR ME DE SEMPRE RÒMENTAL
00:43:29Excuse me, ma'am. Miss Becker is here to see you. Miss Becker? Oh, Lily. Show her in. And bring another cup, please.
00:43:54Why, Lily, what a pleasant surprise. Mr. Susie and I were talking about you today. He's very pleased with the progress you're making.
00:44:04In fact, though, it's still supposed to be a secret, he's planning to take you on his next tour. That'll be very nice. Thank you.
00:44:11But I'll let him tell you that himself. Sit down. You sure I'm not intruding? I mean, if Mr. Susie's...
00:44:18Mr. Susie's upstairs in his study with his publisher. They'll probably be at it for hours. Thank you, Thelma.
00:44:23Oh, thank you, Thelma. I always take cream, but if you'd prefer lemon...
00:44:28Oh, no. Cream's fine.
00:44:31You're upset about something. What is it?
00:44:36Mrs. Susie, how do you get to be a lady? A what? A lady, like you.
00:44:43Well, I don't know. I never thought about it. I'm not always sure I am a lady.
00:44:50Oh, yes, you are. How do you know?
00:44:52You never raise your voice or get mad. And you do?
00:44:56All the time.
00:44:58Well, what about Willie? Doesn't he think you're a lady?
00:45:01Not anymore. Why not? What happened?
00:45:04He kissed me. He did? He did.
00:45:06And what did you do? I slapped his face. Then I kicked him.
00:45:11Hard. Hard as I could.
00:45:14But that's not what's worrying me. It's that he knows I like being kissed.
00:45:18Oh, and you don't think a lady should like that?
00:45:20Not when she knows nothing can come of it that she can't get married.
00:45:23Well, who says you can't get married?
00:45:25You know how Mr. Susie feels about members of the band taking their wives on tour.
00:45:29And when I get married, I'm not staying home for anyone.
00:45:32Has it ever occurred to you that what Mr. Susie doesn't know won't hurt him?
00:45:37As to being a lady...
00:45:39Unfounded, this is the last bar.
00:45:41If you don't like it, you'll get no more music of any kind from me.
00:45:44All I said was...
00:45:45I heard what you said. The best ballad I've ever wrote in my life, too.
00:45:48Philip, you have to come through here shouting.
00:45:50I'm not shouting.
00:45:51Well, can't you see I'm busy?
00:45:53I'm busy, too. What do you suppose I'm doing?
00:45:56Now, what was I talking about?
00:45:59Oh, yes, as to being a lady.
00:46:01Isn't it really a matter of what goes on inside of you?
00:46:04And not whether you raise your voice occasionally or get mad or like to be kissed.
00:46:10As a matter of fact, I know some grand ladies who like to be kissed.
00:46:14Indeed, they insist on it. Regularly.
00:46:17It's just being yourself that counts.
00:46:19So, if you want my advice, I'd say the next time Willie kisses you,
00:46:23you forget all about slapping his face and just kiss him back.
00:46:27Hard?
00:46:28As hard as you can.
00:46:29And I'd waste no time finding an opportunity to do it, either.
00:46:32That's what I did when Mr. Sousa first kissed me.
00:46:35And look where it got me.
00:46:36Come on. I'll see it for you myself just to prove it.
00:46:38Oh, no. No, dear.
00:46:39No, Philip, Philip, that will ruin everything.
00:46:42Philip! Philip!
00:46:44Do you rent boats?
00:47:08Boats? What do we want with boats?
00:47:09Do you?
00:47:10What does that sign say? Keep off the grass?
00:47:13Come on, Willie.
00:47:1425 cents.
00:47:15Please, Willie.
00:47:17Okay.
00:47:34Well, I'll be doggone.
00:47:35Hmm?
00:47:36I never would have believed it.
00:47:38Believed what?
00:47:39That you'd deliberately go to all of this trouble,
00:47:41douse yourself with a whole bottle of perfume just to get me to kiss you again.
00:47:44I didn't.
00:47:45Oh, yes, you did.
00:47:46I did nothing of the sort. You're crazy.
00:47:48I figured there was something fishy about you wanting to come up here to Central Park,
00:47:51hiring a boat when you know very well you've never been in a boat before in your life.
00:47:54That's not true, and I won't stay and listen to another word. Take me back.
00:47:57No, it's all right. If that's what you want, I don't mind. I just as soon kiss you.
00:48:00Oh, don't you dare touch me. I'll kick you again. I'll kick you right out of this boat.
00:48:04Go ahead and kick out.
00:48:05Let's do it by now.
00:48:06I'm warning you. I'll break it from falling.
00:48:21I didn't use a whole bottle of perfume.
00:48:24How much did you use?
00:48:25Half a bottle.
00:48:27Who cares? It worked, didn't it?
00:48:37Hey, I've got an idea.
00:48:38What?
00:48:39Why don't we get married so as we can keep on doing this?
00:48:41When?
00:48:42I don't know. The sooner the better.
00:48:43Oh, Willie, that's wonderful. But we can't.
00:48:46Who says we can't?
00:48:47You know Mr. Sousa's rule about wives traveling with the band.
00:48:49Oh, yeah. I forgot about that.
00:48:51No, it's all right.
00:48:52Mr. Sousa told me he's going to take me on his next tour anyway,
00:48:55and, well, everyone knows the rule only says husbands can't take their wives.
00:48:58There's nothing about wives taking their husbands.
00:49:01Anyway, what he doesn't know won't hurt him.
00:49:04It won't hurt him.
00:49:34There's nothing about you.
00:49:35There's nothing about you.
00:49:36There's nothing about you.
00:49:37Thank you, thank you, William.

00:50:09A dance which, I am reliably informed, is going to knock Mr. Strauss's waltzes into a cocked hat.

00:51:09Now then, everybody dance the two-step.
00:51:36We'll be right back.

00:53:23I'll take it to Mr. Suze.
00:53:24After which, it might be advisable to get in touch with our friends in Atlanta and wait
00:53:28for the fur to fly.
00:53:29Right.
00:53:30Come, dear.
00:53:31We're missing the best part of the dance.
00:53:32Attend that right away, Brittany, please.
00:53:37Mr. Little.
00:53:38Oh, Mr. Suze.
00:53:39Nice dance, isn't it?
00:53:40Yes, very nice indeed.
00:53:41But the music sounds a little thin.
00:53:42That's only because you're not conducting it, sir.
00:53:43Ha-ha.
00:53:44Ha-ha.
00:53:45Oh, hey.

00:56:16Aber das ist nicht möglich.
00:56:18Sie wissen, wie ich mich daran fühle.
00:56:22Das ist, warum Sie nicht sagen.
00:56:24Jetzt schauen Sie die anderen Seite.
00:56:34Ich weiß nicht, dass Sie hier kommen.
00:56:36Ich bin hier nicht gekommen.
00:56:38Das ist das, was ich nicht.
00:56:40All das Scheiße.
00:56:42Wir müssen uns sagen.
00:56:44Das ist Teil der Spaß.
00:56:45Wir können immer sagen, dass ich in mein Leben war.
00:56:47Sie lieben, dass er so wunderbar ist.
00:56:50Mr. Sousa hat andere Dinge zu fragen.
00:56:53Er hat andere Dinge zu fragen.
00:56:55Oh, so you call being married to me a little thing?
00:56:58Oh, oh!
00:56:59Oh, sorry.
00:57:00Oh, mein ankle.
00:57:02Ich bin sorry.
00:57:03Ich sollte nicht aufgerufen.
00:57:05Wenn es sich besser fühlt,
00:57:07dann geht es mir.
00:57:15Oh!
00:57:16Oh!
00:57:17Oh!
00:57:18Oh!

00:57:52Ich habe ein paar Sachen in der Mitte.
00:57:54Es wird anders sein.
00:57:56Jetzt, Colonel.
00:57:58Die Brass-Bands sind nicht ausreichend.
00:58:00Besonders die Brass-Bands von dem Norden.
00:58:02Ich habe ein paar Sachen in der Mitte.
00:58:04Ihr geht gleich.
00:58:22Untertitelung. BR 2018
00:58:52Ladies and Gentlemen, let me introduce to you
00:59:06the most famous bandleader in the world today,
00:59:10Mr. John Philip Sousa.
00:59:16I am authorized by Mr. Sousa to announce
00:59:20that he will give two concerts daily
00:59:23in the ballroom of this building 50 cents admission.
00:59:27All receipts over and above the actual expenses
00:59:31will be turned over to the United Confederate veterans
00:59:35to do with as they see fit.
00:59:42Mr. Vickering, you have a word to add?
00:59:45Yes, Colonel. Mr. Sousa has asked me to read a sample
00:59:48of the sort of programs you may expect to hear
00:59:51inside this building.
00:59:53Overture to William Tell by Rossini.
00:59:56Song, Dixie.
01:00:01Whilst The Blue Danube by Strauss.
01:00:05Song, Dixie.
01:00:12King Cotton March by Sousa.
01:00:16Song, Dixie.
01:00:24I am further authorized to state
01:00:27that all encores will be...
01:00:30Dixie!
01:00:38Thank you, sir.
01:00:40Before retiring to the ballroom for our first concert,
01:00:43we would like, with your permission,
01:00:46to play one more selection.
01:00:56Colonel Randolph tells me
01:00:58it's long been a source of satisfaction here in the South
01:01:00that on the night of General Lee's visit
01:01:03to General Grant at Appomattox,
01:01:05the Marine Band in Washington,
01:01:07of which I later have the honor to be leader,
01:01:11marched to the White House to serenade President Lincoln.
01:01:15On this occasion,
01:01:17one of jubilation for the North,
01:01:18of defeat and despair for the South,
01:01:21Mr. Lincoln asked for only one tune,
01:01:24that which you have just heard,
01:01:26Dixie.
01:01:27In return for that compliment,
01:01:29we will now play,
01:01:32assisted by the Stone Mountain Church Choir of Atlanta,
01:01:35another tune which has come to be identified
01:01:37almost exclusively with our late president.
01:01:40My eyes have seen the glory
01:01:54of the coming of the Lord.
01:01:59He is trampling of the vintage
01:02:02where the grapes of wrath are stored.
01:02:06He has loosed the faithful lightning
01:02:11of his caramal swift sword.
01:02:19His truth is marching on.
01:02:26Glory, glory, hallelujah.
01:02:32Glory, glory, hallelujah.
01:02:36Glory, glory, hallelujah.
01:02:42His truth is marching on.
01:02:51He has sounded forth a trumpet
01:02:54that shall never call retreat.
01:02:56He is sipping out the hearts of men
01:02:58before his judgment seat.
01:03:00Oh, we swift my soul to answer him,
01:03:02We have the great great great great great great great great great.
01:03:07Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
01:03:37Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
01:03:45Alleluia, Alleluia!
01:03:59Now the really fabulous years were beginning.
01:04:02And as he went up and down the country, back and forth across the seas,
01:04:06a seemingly endless flow of tunes, marches, ballads, overtures, gushing from his fertile brain,
01:04:12the whole world seemed bent on doing Sousa honor.
01:04:16From England came the Victoria Medal.
01:04:19From France, the palm of the Academy.
01:04:22From Wilhelm of Germany.
01:04:25Franz Joseph of Austria.
01:04:28The Tsar of all the Russians.
01:04:30At home, cigars were named for him.
01:04:34Every vaudeville theater had its imitator.
01:04:38Press and public alike bide with each other to make his name a household word.
01:04:48Every birthday a national event.
01:04:50Would you mind telling us how old you are today, Mr. Sousa?
01:04:53Not at all.
01:04:54Like the young lady in Mr. Oscar Wilde's new play, I became permanently 35 as soon as I reached 40.
01:05:00How did you ever decide to be a musician in the first place, Mr. Sousa?
01:05:04When I was young, I had a fondness for rolling a ball around the floor.
01:05:08One day, a celebrated musician suggested to my father that music lessons would break me of this unfortunate habit.
01:05:14So I became a musician.
01:05:16For you.
01:05:21What's that?
01:05:22Philip, come, look.
01:05:23What is it, Jenny?
01:05:53Bravo, bravo.
01:05:54Come on inside, boys, and have a piece of my cake.
01:05:55Yeah!
01:05:56Yeah!
01:05:57Oh!
01:05:58Oh!
01:05:59Oh!
01:06:00Oh!
01:06:01Oh!
01:06:02Oh!
01:06:03Oh!
01:06:04Oh!
01:06:05Oh!
01:06:06Oh!
01:06:07Oh!
01:06:08Oh!
01:06:09Oh!
01:06:10Oh!
01:06:11Oh!
01:06:12Oh!
01:06:13Oh!
01:06:14Oh!
01:06:15Oh!
01:06:16Oh!
01:06:17Oh!
01:06:18Oh!
01:06:19Oh!
01:06:20Oh!
01:06:21Oh!
01:06:25Wells knew that was Sousa.
01:06:26Always progressing as he promised to be.
01:06:27Forever seeking new and diverting ways of entertaining new and diverse audiences.
01:06:36Gentlemen, it's quite possible that very shortly you'll be hissed out of the theater...
01:06:41..if you must not be hung from the nearest lamppost.
01:06:43Whatever happens in the satisfaction of seeing you created strictly in the line of duty.
01:06:47I personally guarantee that each of your widows will receive a suitable pension.
01:07:17When it's springtime in New York, there's a certain way they walk.
01:07:29With a bold and jaunty swing, all the dandies have their fling.
01:07:36If a girl be passing by, in discreetly wings her eye.
01:07:42Take a tip and turn the corner, if you're slipping, you're a goner.
01:07:45When it's springtime in New York, from the Bronx to Stanton Fly, love is now the latest time.
01:08:08Boys and girls exchange affections, coppers get in the right directions.
01:08:11All the trolleys make connections, politicians hold elections when it's springtime in New York.
01:08:17Boy, boy, boy!
01:08:31Boy, boy!
01:08:33Boy!
01:08:34Oh, oh, oh, oh...
01:08:57On the night that I struck New York
01:08:59I went out for a quiet walk
01:09:03Folks who are on to the city say
01:09:06Better by far that I took Broadway
01:09:09But I was out to enjoy the sights
01:09:13There was the Bowery ablaze with lights
01:09:16I had one of the devils of nights
01:09:19I'll never go there anymore
01:09:22Oh, take my money and take my own
01:09:26But spare my beautiful parasol
01:09:30If you're after a kiss or two
01:09:33Then my answer is this for you
01:09:36Don't you trifle, it's all in vain
01:09:40Triflers end up with a ball and chain
01:09:43Here comes the Navy, won't somebody save me?
01:09:47Oh, officer, rescue me now
01:09:49The Bowery, the Bowery
01:09:53They say such things and they do such things
01:09:56The Bowery, the Bowery
01:09:59We'll never go there anymore
01:10:02When it's great time in New York
01:10:18You should hear the way they talk
01:10:21Oh, you kid
01:10:22When a girl says 23's to do
01:10:24What she means is, baby, I love you
01:10:27Every dolly has her swing
01:10:30Every street is lover's lane
01:10:34It's the season to be sparking
01:10:36Lover's almost central parking
01:10:37And it's springtime
01:10:38It's springtime
01:10:40It's springtime in New York
01:10:45Bravo! Bravo!
01:11:05Ladies and gentlemen
01:11:25I've just been informed
01:11:28That at exactly 49 minutes past 9 o'clock this evening
01:11:31The battleship Maine was blown up in Havana Harbor and sunk
01:11:36Between two and three hundred officers and men
01:11:40Are reported to have lost their lives in the explosion
01:11:43While President McKinley has urged the people to remain calm
01:11:47Well-informed sources in Washington express the opinion
01:11:50That only a miracle can prevent war with Spain
01:11:53The Army and Navy have both been ordered to be ready for any emergency
01:11:57A call for volunteers is expected momentarily
01:12:01Why do you of all people have to be a hero?
01:12:25Me? I'm shaking already
01:12:27John L. Sullivan's right
01:12:29If Spain wants to fight
01:12:30Why doesn't you challenge somebody her own weight and get a reputation?
01:12:33I'll mention that if I run in any of them down in Cuba
01:12:35Heaven forbid
01:12:36In the meantime, we'll...
01:12:38Governor!
01:12:39Well, good morning, Willie
01:12:41Lily
01:12:41What are you doing here?
01:12:43Enlisting, sir
01:12:43What are you doing?
01:12:44They still have bands in the Marine Corps
01:12:46Sure, sir
01:12:47But I thought that you were too...
01:12:48That I was too old?
01:12:49Oh, no, sir
01:12:50I just thought that...
01:12:50Never mind
01:12:51Whatever it is, you're wrong
01:12:52Right

01:13:35Das war's.
01:13:37Was ist das?
01:13:39Wir lieben die Spaghetti?
01:13:41Wir lieben es.
01:13:42Es ist gut.
01:13:43Wollen Sie noch etwas?
01:13:44Nein, danke.
01:13:45Wenn du etwas anderes möchtest,
01:13:47wir haben es um 11 Uhr.
01:13:48Nichts mehr, danke.
01:13:49Wir wollen nur hier ein bisschen länger.
01:13:51Ich habe nur noch ein paar Minuten.
01:13:53Hey, listen.
01:13:54Warum bist du nicht so,
01:13:55dass du einen Platz hast?
01:13:56Wir sind.
01:13:57Das ist, dass wir uns nicht gesehen haben.
01:14:05Sie werden wahrscheinlich nie schreiben.
01:14:08Nur jeden Tag.
01:14:12Ich glaube, wir besser gehen.
01:14:14Ja.
01:14:17Ich werde dich nur einmal.
01:14:19Dann gehen wir.
01:14:20In hier?
01:14:21In hier.
01:14:35Ja, Mats.
01:14:36Da geht auf, was sie dabei le versucht.
01:14:45即es Weihnachten.
01:14:46Guten Abend.
01:14:48Danke.
01:14:52Warum deshalb portray wollen wir nicht so,
01:14:54und warum ist sie父母 inustainen?
01:14:56Das will ich machen, dann treft sich anders,
01:14:58und würde ich wahrscheinlich selbst ein很eseih你看ern.
01:15:00Sussa war für McMahon einocking力,
01:15:02aber nicht.
01:15:03Ein severer Fall von Typhoides
01:15:04der Tifoide Fever senden ihn zu See,
01:15:06da er zu schreiben,
01:15:08für De Wolf Hopper's neue Comic-Opera,
01:15:10El Capitan.
01:15:12Aber es war auch zu denken,
01:15:14und er...
01:15:16Aber er hat ihn, in seine eigenen Worte,
01:15:18was er passiert.
01:15:20Als ich den Dach fahre,
01:15:22beginnt die rhythmische Musik
01:15:23von einem Band,
01:15:24in meinem Kopf zu sein,
01:15:26und re-Echowen die größte Melodie.
01:15:28Doch ich wusste nicht,
01:15:30dass mein Brain Band
01:15:32der größte Morte,
01:15:34nicht eine Note,
01:15:35von einem,
01:15:36nachdem ich es zu einem Publikum,
01:15:37wurde niemals geändert.
01:16:02I'm afraid I must be only dreamin', for there is no one like you.
01:16:16I'm afraid that you are far too sweet and lovely to ever be true.
01:16:22Philip.
01:16:24What is it, dear? As you can see, we're very busy.
01:16:26Yes, I know, dear.
01:16:29This just came in the morning, May.
01:16:32I spend my life just a-dreamin' of you.
01:16:36Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
01:17:02I'm afraid that if I awake, you'll be gone and my heart will break.
01:17:20I'm afraid that if I awake
01:17:26You'll be gone and my heart will break
01:17:30So I'll spend my life
01:17:34Just a-dreaming of you
01:17:40Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. That was splendid.
01:17:45Lily, may I speak to you a moment, please?
01:17:47Ask Mr. Hopper if you'd like to run through the El Capitan march again, will you?
01:17:51Yes.
01:17:52Hello, Lily, dear.
01:17:53Hello, Mrs. Susan.
01:17:54I have a surprise for you. I've just had a letter from Willie.
01:17:57From Cuba.
01:17:58Yes. Let's go over there and find out what the young rascal has to say for himself.
01:18:06Sit down, dear.
01:18:09Shall I read it, or would you rather read it yourself?
01:18:12It's for you you read it.
01:18:13Dear Mrs. Susan,
01:18:17I'm writing to you instead of to Lily
01:18:19because you know what a flibbity-jibbet she is
01:18:22and how she starts carrying on
01:18:23like a chicken with its head cut off at the least little thing.
01:18:26Lily, a flibbity-jibbet?
01:18:28He's out of his mind.
01:18:30I guess you know more about the war back there
01:18:32than we do down here.
01:18:33But I thought I'd tell you about a little scrap
01:18:35we had at Cusco Well the other day
01:18:38in case the newspapers didn't figure out
01:18:40it was big enough to write home about.
01:18:43Cusco Well was the enemy's only water supply
01:18:45and naturally we wanted to get them out of there.
01:18:48So C Company and D Company, that's me,
01:18:52started out early one morning
01:18:54along with about 50 Cubans.
01:18:56It was only six miles from camp,
01:18:58but in this heat it seemed like 60.
01:19:01Boy, was it hot,
01:19:02just like Washington in July.
01:19:04I don't remember that Washington was so hot in July.
01:19:07Oh, then you have a short memory, dear.
01:19:08Washington could be unbearable in July.
01:19:11Never mind.
01:19:12Go on, Jenny.
01:19:14Well, anyhow, it wasn't long
01:19:16before the Spaniards caught on to what we were up to
01:19:18and cut loose on us.
01:19:20Luckily, one of our gunboats,
01:19:22the Dolphin, was just offshore
01:19:24and so we signaled them to start shelling.
01:19:27But I guess they must have got mixed up
01:19:29because instead of shelling the enemy,
01:19:30they began shooting at us.
01:19:32Sergeant Quirk,
01:19:34who was one of the real heroes of this war,
01:19:36if you ask me,
01:19:37stood up in clear sight of everyone
01:19:39and wigwagged to them to cut it out,
01:19:41which they did.
01:19:42But not quickly enough, I guess,
01:19:44because that's when I got it.
01:19:47Now, he's all right, Lily.
01:19:48Now, don't worry.
01:19:51You read the rest of it, dear.
01:19:55I guess I'm the A number one lucky fellow
01:19:57of this war
01:19:58because I only got it in the knee
01:20:01when I might just as well have got it
01:20:03where it would be really bad.
01:20:06Anyhow, as I was telling the doc last night,
01:20:08if worse comes to worst,
01:20:09then he does take it off,
01:20:11which he won't.
01:20:13One leg's enough for anybody
01:20:14who aims to sit around
01:20:15as much as I do from now on.
01:20:18Besides, like a fellow from West Virginia
01:20:20was telling me,
01:20:21you can't tell wooden legs today
01:20:23from the real thing.
01:20:24He says he's gonna get a mahogany one
01:20:26so he can keep it polished up.
01:20:29But another fellow I know from Mississippi
01:20:30says that's crazy.
01:20:32Now, he's gonna get himself
01:20:33a nice soft pine one
01:20:35so when he gets bored,
01:20:36at least he can do a little whittling.
01:20:41Tell Lily I said
01:20:41that if she starts bawling
01:20:43or gets any crazy ideas
01:20:44about coming down here,
01:20:46I'm gonna head for the tall timbers.
01:20:49The thing for her to do now
01:20:50is to go on
01:20:51and be a big hit in that show
01:20:53because from now on
01:20:54she's liable to have to support me.
01:20:57And I mean in the style
01:20:58I'm accustomed to.
01:20:59We should have told you
01:21:01we're married.
01:21:03Yes, we know.
01:21:08No.
01:21:09Almost from the beginning.
01:21:12It must have been pretty difficult
01:21:13at times, I can tell you,
01:21:14not to let on.
01:21:16Do I finish it?
01:21:17I hope you and Mr. Sousa
01:21:21and the children are fine
01:21:22and that El Capitan's
01:21:24as good as everything else
01:21:25the governor's written
01:21:26or better if that's possible.
01:21:29Well, I guess this'll have to be
01:21:31about all now
01:21:31as it's time for chow
01:21:33and you know me in food.
01:21:36Love to all.
01:21:38Willie.
01:21:40Yes.
01:21:41Tell Lily I said howdy.
01:21:43You'll be gone
01:21:45and my heart
01:21:47will break
01:21:49Oh, I'll spend
01:21:54my life
01:21:55Golly, that, uh,
01:21:57that wolfhopper
01:21:58sure got a powerful voice,

01:22:18and as from every war
01:22:19men were coming home

01:22:53You can go right in, Mrs. Little.
01:23:13Hello.
01:23:15Mr. Little, wake up. You have company.
01:23:17Oh, what a coincidence.
01:23:24I was just dreaming about some of those senoritas in Cuba.
01:23:28And all of a sudden, I look up and...
01:23:47I don't guarantee this show. Usually just some of the fellas. Kind of amateurish.
01:23:59We'll soon find out.
01:24:17Did you know about this?
01:24:19Of course. I don't have to tell everything I know tonight.
01:24:25Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
01:24:27It's a great privilege and pleasure to be here with you tonight.
01:24:30And with your permission, I'd like to play a new march...
01:24:33...which I've written especially for you men who fought this war.
01:24:36Unhappily, we are missing one musician.
01:24:39A young man who plays not only an unique...
01:24:41...but an indispensable instrument in the band.
01:24:44By a strange coincidence, however, I understand...
01:24:47...that this young man is here tonight.
01:24:49I'm hoping he'll come up here...
01:24:51...and help his old friends out on this occasion.
01:24:53How about it, Willie?
01:24:55Go on, Willie.
01:24:57Hello, Willie.
01:25:13Hello, Willie.
01:25:14Hello, Mr. Susan.
01:25:15Can you still read music?
01:25:16I can read your music, and I sleep.
01:25:17All right, come on up.
01:25:18There's your old monstrosity waiting for you.
01:25:20Get over and let's see you.
01:25:23Hi.
01:25:25Good morning.
01:25:26How are those kids, huh?
01:25:27Let me think about this.
01:25:29It's good to see you.
