Clinit Eastwood and Carol Channing.. lovers?#0

Posted: 7/5/06 at 8:13pm

I was flipping through the channels the other morning and saw some of a movie called THE FIRST TAVELING SALESLADY.

It was Channing's first film and her love interest was Clint Eastwood?!?!?!

Even with the jaw dropping pairing of Eastwood and Channing, I could finish watching it. Very odd and very dull.

I remember that film. I thought it was kind of fun, in its own way.

Would she sing Dolly & would he say "Make My Day" while doing it ?

They were such a magical couple on screen I don't know why they didn't work together again.

I could see them in a remake of LAST TANGO IN PARIS.

They could be in a cop film together.

It's the big shoot out at the end. Carol sees that someone whom Clint doesn't see is about to shoot him and leaps in front of him. Deflecting the bullet with one of her large fake diamonds....

"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

I went to a seminar hosted by Carol Channing back in May and she actually talked about this movie (and her scenes with Clint). She mentioned that even though she had more acting experience than he did, she had never had a serious "kissing" scene before so she didn't know what to do. Clint had to help show her how to act in a romantic scene. She also mentioned how atractive Clint "used" to be -- which she followed by saying "you wouldn't know it by looking at him now".

She went on to say how awful she thought the movie was and she had hoped that people would have forgotten about it by now -- but it always inevitably gets brought up. She said that Ginger Rogers (who was also in the film) is probably still being asked about it in the afterlife. To show just how awful the movie was, she mentioned that a lot of the dialogue was improvised or written on the spot. She said Ginger Rogers' mother would be on the set each day and would make suggestions like "that line is awful, this is what it should be.." -- and many of her suggestions ended up in the film!

Maybe Clint Eastwood could sing "I Put My Hand in There?"
