My Resistance Is Low ~ Jane Russell ~ Hoagy Carmichael ~ Baz

I love the old Black and White Films, hope you do too. here's a short clip.

As performed by JANE RUSSELL and HOAGY CARMICHAEL in the film The Las Vegas Story.

JANE: You touch my fingertips and my heart is aglow
HOAGY: What's on your mind, baby
JANE: You bend to kiss my lips and I can't let you go

JANE: Maybe I should resist, I'm a fool, I know
HOAGY: Resist me, baby
JANE: But at a time like this, my resistance is low

HOAGY:
Your eyes have magic, they seem to say
Come closer, come closer, my darlin', come closer
And somehow you can't break away

JANE: Can't you see that I wanna be adored
More than you'll ever know
HOAGY: But I know, baby, I know
JANE: And I'm going overboard with a capital "O"

JANE:
So don't be persistent
Please keep your distance
You know my resistance is low

HOAGY:
Your eyes have magic
They seem to say
Don't be persistent
Please keep your distance
You know your resistance is low
Low, low, low, low, low, low, low!

The movie was originally called The Miami Story.
It was from a story by Jay Dratner and was supposed to star Robert Ryan.
However then it was changed to a vehicle for Victor Mature and Jane Russell, with Sam Bischoff to produce.

Filming was to have started in December 1950 but the start date was pushed back to March 1951, by which time the title had been changed to The Las Vegas Story.

Filming took place at RKO and on location in Las Vegas (also, the Mojave Airport). Filming finished by June.
