Host
George Murphy, in the MGM family album segment, introduces a number from
Anchors Aweigh (1945) featuring
Gene Kelly performing with Jerry the Mouse as the King of Cartoonland. This was the first number on the big screen where a live human and an animated character sang and danced together. Another King, or more precisely one that never was, is presented in
The King Without a Crown (1937), which provides an account of a Christian missionary name Eleazar Williams living in Green Bay, Wisconsin, who actually could have been King Louis XVII of France. Murphy then introduces producer
Dore Schary and writer/director
Richard Brooks, who, collaborating on
The Last Hunt (1956), documented the filming of the final buffalo stampede scene. They wanted the scene to be as realistic as possible, and, therefore, shot on location in the Black Hills of South Dakota, where they used an existing herd of two thousand wild buffalo in their natural environs, but which needed to be controlled for the shoot of the stampede.
