Title:
The Five Pennies
Synopsis:
Danny Kaye cuts loose with his trademark musical clowning. Louis ”satchmo” Armstrong plays his horn and croons in that famed gargling-granite voice. Big band icons Bing Crosby, Ray Anthony and Shelley Manne join the fun. Barbara Bel Gebbes (decades before Dallas) and debuting teen Weld add to the excellent performances in The Five Pennies, the success tempered with tears biopic of jazz great Loring ”Red” Nichols (portrayed by Kaye).
Superb, too, are the more than 20 tunes peppered throughout the film. Best of all: the Satchmo-Kaye ”When the saints go marching in” duet with the legends scat singing a list of music-world saints and adding a little ”Freres Jacques” too!
