At Long Last Love Page #5

Synopsis: This film was Peter Bogdanovich's homage to musical comedies of the 1930s. A millionaire named Michael Oliver Pritchard III and a singer named Kitty O'Kelly meet and fall in love. Meanwhile, an indigent woman named Brooke Carter and an Italian gambler named Johnny Spanish meet and fall in love. All four people meet each other and become friends (actually, Kitty and Brooke had been friends since high-school), and soon, Brooke's crude, fun-loving maid Elizabeth falls in love with Michael's valet Rodney James. Later on, Michael and Brooke fall in love, and Kitty and Johnny decide to follow them around. In order to make Brooke and Michael jealous, they try to look like they are falling in love as well. Eventually, Michael and Johnny get into a fight but then immediately make up. Soon, Brooke and Kitty make up. The two couples pair off successfully and they live happily ever after.

about to stop Oh, don't stop.

But if, baby, I'm the bottom,

you're the top

Oh, thank you.

Your words poetic

are not pathetic; No?

On the other hand,

boy, you shine Oh.

And I can feel after

every line Yeah?

A thrill divine

Down my spine

Now, gifted humans

like Vincent Youmans

Might think that your song is

bad Oh, what does he know?

But for a person

who's just rehearsin'

Well, I gotta say

this, my lad

You're the top.

You're an Arrow collar;

You're the top

You're a Coolidge dollar;

You're the nimble tread

of the feet of Fred Astaire

That's nice.

You're an O'Neill drama

You're Whistler's mama

You're Camembert

Camembert.

You're a rose

You're Infemo's Dante

You're the nose

The nose?

The nose.

On the great Durante

Oh, yeah.

I'm just in the way;

As the French would say,

De "trop"

But if, baby, I'm the bottom,

you're the top

You're the top.
