Danny Kaye
{born: 1913 ~ died 1987}
Danny Kaye was one of my all time favourite comedians, as a little girl and growing teenager there was nothing more I loved than curling up on the sofa, duvet enveloping me watching one of Danny's films.
His jovial quick wittedness, timing and uber-fast talking during some sequences left me with a cheshire cat grin throughout his movies.
{White Christmas: with Bing Crosby}
Danny was the kind of person I thought would be fab to have as a grandad ~ surely he would keep me entertained ~ at all times ~ he would be there if I needed to talk but most importantly when imparting his super-cool advice he would spontaneously burst into song *sigh*
SO cool.... :o)
I'll leave you with {and there are SO many to choose from} one of my favourite moments from one of his films
White Chritsmas {1954}
I love how the improvised slapping of the fan on Bing's chest, at the end of the number, has them both cracking up.....
He truly was one of the great actors :o)
hugs
