When They're Alone
boblipton12 April 2024
Johnny Downs and Gale Storm sing and dance to the title song in this soundie.

It's one of thousands of soundies, short musical films created from the late 1930s through the middle of the 1940s to play on a device known as a Mills Panoram. You may think of them as video jukeboxes, or precursors to music videos. You could find them in bars, and a dime in the machine would bring you one of ten songs. Many established performers performed on them, and they were often the first films of future stars like Doris Day and Ricardo Montalban.

It's a typical big-band arrangement, and the leads are quite winsome, especially Miss Storm in her short skirt and black stockings.
