I think they're both positively nasty to each other. I much prefer Gene Nelson's Will and Gloria Grahame's Annie in the 1955 film version. They're playfully bantering with each other for the most part, and it's absolutely delightful.

@amadeusamwater 4 жыл бұрын

Things to note: This is the stage version, anyone appearing in a stage musical better be good at singing, loud and strong. Will Parker had better be aggressive, since cowboys and farmers didn't get along and he's courting a farmer's daughter. This version of Annie is closer to the ideal, an excitable and oversexed 16-year-old. Plus Gloria Grahame was not a good singer.

@StrongRex 4 жыл бұрын

I agree the movie is lacking in the case of Ado Annie, but not the rest of the cast. I liked Curly and Jud in this, but I didn't care for Will or Aunt Eller. Ali Hakim annoyed me. I could not stand Laurey - I thought making her a tomboy and dressing her in pants was a terrible idea. Plus, the actress just gave a really cold, hostile performance and that's not Laurey's character at all.

I definitely prefer Gene Nelson's performance, he will always be Will to me. I didn't care for this actor's portrayal. But man, Ado Annie is so much better here! The actress's performance just makes much more sense. The instrumental portion is definitely better in the movie than here.

@tamolyn5141 3 жыл бұрын

I prefer Nelson's performance too. What I don't like about this Will and Annie is that they're both so nasty to each other. This duet should be fun and playful, not vicious.

@Theater00jock 4 ай бұрын

100% agree. I think Gene Nelson plays Will as disarming and not actually a ladies man, which is what makes this song fun. Like he is not giving up "lots of things a gentleman never mentions" he didn't have those things! Like Annie is ACTUALLY sexually adventurous, and Will is PRETENDING. I feel like this actor portrays Will as just as oversexed as Annie and as quite aggressive towards her, which makes him almost sinister? But her performance is incredible. I mean I don't fault him for it, I think he does a good job at portraying the character, I just don't like his portrayal that much.

Will: You'll have to be a little more standoffish When fellers offer you a buggy ride. Annie: I'll give a imitation of a crawfish And dig myself a hole where I can hide. Will: I heared how you was kickin' up some capers When I was off in Kansas City, Mo. I heard some things you couldn't print in papers From fellers who been talkin' like they know! Annie: Foot! I only did the kind of things I orta, sorta, To you I was as faithful as c'n be fer me. Them stories 'bout the way I lost my bloomers - Rumors! A lot of tempest in a pot o' tea! Will: The whole thing don't sound very good to me. Annie: Well, y' see. Will: I go and sow my last wild oat! I cut out all shenanigans. I save my money, don't gamble or drink In the back room down at Flannigans! I give up lotsa other things A gentleman never mentions, But before I give up anymore, I wanta know your intentions! With me it's all er nuthin'. Is it all er nuthin' with you? It cain't be "in between" It cain't be "now and then" No half and half romance will do! I'm a one woman man, Home lovin' type, All complete with slippers and pipe. Take me like I am, er leave me be! If you cain't give me all, give me nuthin' And nuthin's whut you'll git from me! Annie: Not even sump'n? Will: Nuthin's whut you'll git from me! Annie: It cain't be "in between" Will: Hmm Hmm! Annie: It cain't be "now and then" Will: No half and half romance will do! Annie: Would you build me a house All painted white Cute and clean and purty and bright Will: Big enough fer two but not fer three! Annie: S'posin' that we should have a third one? Will: He better look a lot like me! Annie: Yer spited image! Will: He better look a lot like me! Annie: With you it's all er nuthin'. All fer you and nuthin' fer me! But if a wife is wise, she's gotta realize That men like you are wild and free. So I ain't gonna fuss, ain't gonna frown, Have your fun, go out on the town, Stay up late and don't come home till three. And go right off to sleep if you're sleepy, There's no use waitin' up fer me! Will: Oh, Ado Annie! Annie: No use waitin' up fer me! Will: Come back and kiss me!
