Jimmy Durante On You Tube


Hi For those whose who didn't see Jimmy on TV in his day, as well as his die hard fans, there is a world of Durante stuff on "You Tube" video, online , many great performances While i'm at it, hopefully someone can send to You Tube a certain clip from "Blondie of The Follies" (1932), in which Jimmy co starred. About 1 hr. into the film, Marion Davies refers to Billie Dove as Lottie Callabash, not Callahan, as listed in the credits. Perhaps Dove, who retired from films shortly after, was Durante's famous Callabash, and not his late wife, the theory that is most reported. Many scenes were deleted from this film as Randolph Hearst was known to exercise control over all Marion Davies' films. He didn't like to see her competing with others for the spotlight. A theory that possibly we all can live with is that Callabash is a term applying to more than 1 of Jimmy's relationships, during his lifetime.
