Episode 32

Overview

Host Walter Pidgeon and his two female helpers are relaxing in a West Indies setting to discuss this week's feature presentation of the movie The Pirate (1948) starring Gene Kelly and Judy Garland. This week's discussion will be the first of three parts. In part one, a young woman named Manuela dreams of a pirate named Macoco, but who is betrothed to the mean spirited mayor Don Pedro. While Manuela visits a nearby town, a traveling theater troupe arrives and one of its performers, Serafin, falls in love with Manuela at first sight. He is hoping that she secretly loves him, but under hypnosis, admits to him that she dreams of Macoco instead. Pidgeon then introduces the coming attraction, The Swan (1956), starring Grace Kelly, Alec Guinness, and Louis Jourdan.
