The Five Pennies
19591h 57m · Not Rated · Drama · Music/Musical · Historical
Danny Kaye cuts loose with his trademark musical clowning. Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong plays his horn and croons in that famed gargling-granite voice. Big Band icons Bob Crosby, Ray Anthony and Shelly Manne join the fun. And Barbara Bel Geddes (decades before Dallas) and debuting teen Tuesday Weld add to the excellent performances in The Five Pennies, the success-tempered-with-tears biopic of jazz great Red Nichols (portrayed by Kaye).
Directed by Melville Shavelson · Danny Kaye, Barbara Bel Geddes, Louis Armstrong, Harry Guardino
