Happy Canada Day, eh?



I looked for all kinds of CanCon on YouTube, but ended up with the McKenzie Brothers -- as I so often do. It's hard to get more Canadian than this:




And this is distinctly unCanadian:

And a Happy Canada Day to you too, [livejournal.com profile] puckrobin! :-D Considering when it was made, Rose Marie isn't a bad movie. Its portrayal of Canada is more flattering than what you see in The Scarlet Claw (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0037248/?ref_=sr_2). I also got a kick out of spotting a very young Jimmy Stewart playing Jeanette MacDonald's younger brother. Anywaaaaaaay, it's too bad they didn't make that comic opera. I could easily picture the two of them playing Robin Hood and Marian. And I would have thought they'd want to take advantage of the positive buzz from Flynn's Robin Hood.
