Ida Lupino's horrible singing


Yes, she did do her own singing (no dubs) according to

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0040740/soundtrack?ref_=tt_trv_snd

Sorry, but I don't think her voice is even up to (real life) road house standards. I mean, dynamite looking dame . . . Terrific actress . . . But I'd rather listen to the warbling of Mrs. Miller than Ida Lupino.

LOL. I came on here as I watch the movie now and knew someone would have a post about how bad her voice is, or, was in this movie.

It is. Or, was.

Really bad. Truly awful.

She's talk-singing and not doing it well.

Good god she's awful at singing. I don't usually come on to this forum mid-movie but after listening to her singing her second song, I just couldn't stand it anymore. The actors all listening in awe around the room are pretty damn good at acting!
