A FILIPINO STEALS SCENE IN "OPERATION PETTICOAT" (1959)



An unknown Filipino actor appeared in a guest role as a farmer in the 1959 Cary Grant-Tony Curtis movie, "Operation Petticoat." He almost stole the scene from the two great Hollywood stars. Here’s that memorable film clip below---





Rear Admiral Matt Sherman (Cary Grant) visits the submarine Sea Tiger on the morning of its decommissioning and reminisces about his time as the first commander of the boat, in 1941. Three days after Pearl Harbor, the sub is damaged during an enemy air raid in the Philippines; rather than abandoning her, Sherman and his chiefs refloat the boat. He's forced to accept the services of Lt. Nick Holden (Tony Curtis), who has no sea experience. Curtis sneaks a handful of Philippine refugees and several gorgeous nurses into the all-male sub and all breaks loose. A very delightful Blake Edwards classic.

Turn Back the Hands of Time

No one can do it literally, of course. What one often does is to simply relive, or try to remember the past, the good old happy days, the years gone by. Some do it by reading old letters, some by looking at old albums and photographs. Some reminisce to talking to old friends. Well, others simply watch good old movies.
