When Julie Andrews lost her voice due to a botched vocal surgery, the world lost...THIS. One of the greatest voices in vocal history silenced due to a medical mishap. What a tragedy!

Can't believe Julie Andrews was 47 at that time, she looks 15 years younger! Even now she aged beautifully

Robert Preston and Leslie Anne Warren were robbed of Oscars

Everyone loves Mary poppins, & Sound of music but to me this is the best Julie Andrews movie by far, an English treasure ❤

It's true: Julie Andrews can do literally anything.

For people who came here because of Glee: this is Julie Andrews and she is amazing. Look her up.

Leslie Ann Warren SLAYs me. The petulance, the dread, the triumph. Masterful performance.

that look on James Garner's face when she takes off the cloche never fails to make me laugh out loud. You can almost hear the squeal of brakes and the sound of a crash! I'll never forget the way my father burst out in laughter at this scene.

I just adore how James Garner character is mesmerized by every movement Victoria does till the last minute, and then he just can't believe... he is still falling for her/him

Leslie Anne Warren definitely should’ve won an academy award for her role in this. Very underrated actress.

Julie Andrews is a goddess, but can we spare a thought for the fantastic dancers and the superb choreography? Very understated, but perfect for the number. Simply grand!

I am so glad that Julie Andrews was able to give us "Victor/Victoria" before her singing voice failed completely. I saw an interview where she said that because of her voice problems, she had to do quite a few takes to get through "Le Jazz Hot". Thank you for the effort, Ms Andrews. It is greatly appreciated.

Lesley Ann Warren gives a perfect comedic performance in this wonderful film. She steals every scene shes in. Bravo...Brava!

Spectacular!!! Julie, James( RIP), and Everyone Just Made My Life Better!!! Victor/Victoria Is One Of My Favorite Movies...Just Divine!!!!

It’s so funny to see Leslie Ann’s polite clap changes to euphoria when the reveal from Victoria is Victor. “It’s a guy”

Lesley Ann Warren and her reactions throughout the performance could not stop me from grinning. She was a beautiful complement to the cast.

Blake Edwards' masterpiece, Leslie Anne Warren's reaction to the reveal cracks me up every time.

One of Julie Andrews finest performance of her career

Lesley Ann Warren should have received the Oscar for,her performance.

I am scrolling through the comments and have yet to see a mention of the writer of the lyrics for "Le Jazz Hot," the absolutely brilliant composer/writer Leslie Bricusse. Bricusse also managed to write a slew of other wonderful songs during his lifetime, including "What Kind of Fool Am I?" and the scores of the film musical version of Scrooge (1970,) as well as the score of 1971's glorious Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factor, co-written with his frequent collaborator Anthony Newley. He is unquestionably a major component of what made the film version of Victor/Victoria so successful. Props to you, Mr. Bricusse!

Just thought I’d mention that the choreographer for this film was Paddy Stone. He did a great job.

Between her vocal range and the Fosse elements in the choreography, this ranks up there as one of the best showstoppers ever.

Julie Andrews usually looks and sings so wholesome. It's great to see her in a different, sexy way

A woman pretending to be a man, pretending to be a woman? YES

It's the "Yay...Yaaaaaaay" from Lesley Ann Warren that makes this scene. That moment of revenge

Was so sad when she lost her voice. When I saw The Princess Diaries 2, I wept when she did that little song. She doesn’t have the range she used to, but hearing her sing still filled me with so much joy.

This is one of the greatest movies ever made. I have seen it at least a dozen times, and could watch it a dozen more.

James Garner's face when Julie Andrews takes off the wig is priceless.

The vocal range of Julie Andrews is second to none.🎶🎼🤩🥰

Most actors/actresses DREAM of having a hit film playing an iconic character. Julie managed this THREE times: Victor or Victoria, The Sound of Music and of course Mary Poppins. The woman is PHENOMENAL. I wonder if these three roles would have been as huge if they had been played by someone else.

Never tire of this. That kick-ass dance routine is superb!

Lesley Ann Warren is PRICELESS!!!

That finale is a thing of beauty. That crescendo is just amazingly performed. Such great technique that it’s transcendental!

This never gets old! It's been exciting for 40 years! All the actors are perfectly cast, and they all deserved acting awards: Robert Preston, James Garner, Lesley Ann Warren, etc. JAZZ HOT!

That's how a great musical song is done! Great voice, great choreagraphy, great ending. wonderful!

This entire cast is fantastic. Shout out to Leslie Ann Warren and Robert Preston as the irrepressible Teddy.

She should have won her second Oscar for this film!

" remember make it broader with tons of shoulder, remember your a drag queen "

She's practically perfect in everything she does... What an icon.

Fantastic singing, but the choreography was superb, too.

Leslie Anne Warren was perfect as the moll! She nailed her performance!

The magnificent Julie Andrews is a legend, an icon, a myth. Le Jazz Hot is a masterpiece! What a spectacular performance by a true star with the most glorious voice in show business. The great, multi talented and forever gorgeous Julie is simply VICTORIOUS!

I am pretty sure this performance still has the power to stir every gay boy's soul to its very core when they see it for the first or the 100th time 😄

I like that tiny change in body language and demeanor after removing her headpiece. All "female charm" disappeared and she stood there with her chin out and a very blasé pose, instantly looking more masculine. A masterpiece of acting, both within the movie plot and the movie as a whole 📽✨👌

I was 21 when I saw the film at a press screening on the MGM lot. I didn't know anything about it except the logo. It would open exclusively at the Village Theater in Westwood and the Ziegfeld in Manhattan on April 2 and then go into wide release on April 24 of 1982. I've seen practically all the versions people have performed of this number and nothing tops "Le Jazz Hot" in the film. The way the tempo kicks in with the finger snaps is much faster than the way it's terribly slowed down elsewhere (even on Broadway). And it's all uphill from there. The dance arrangement alone is cause for celebration. I don't even mind the small inserts of the reactions by James Garner, Leslie Anne Warren and Alex Karras ("She's a winner."), which add to the suspense. They arrive too late to read their programs and the way Garner stops clapping is genius. "Le Jazz Hot" just builds and builds to it's orgasmic conclusion. The design and execution of this number culminate in a way that is simply stunning. It instantly became my favorite nightclub number of all time. And I was yet to see many more as my education continued due first, to the revival cinemas, then VHS, then cable, then DVD and now streaming. It still gives me chills.

The movie was filmed completely at Pinewood Studios in the UK and the choreographer was Paddy Stone (assisted by Maggie Goodwin). A lot of Paddy's fancy steps were missed by the closeups during the scene. The dancers rehearsed for ages and it was a shame that a lot of their hard work was not seen. I worked with some of the dancers in London between 1967-76 and with Paddy Stone on the Engelbert Humperdinck TV special in 1969. He was a real task master. He worked with Jack Cole in the USA before he returned to the UK. Irving Davies was his partner and they had similar styles when choreographing.

I generally do not like musicals….but this movie was extraordinary…one of my favorite movies of all time

This tune and dance scene just makes the whole movie for me...it's utterly mesmerizing and so well done.

I saw Julie Andrews in Victor/Victoria on Broadway. She was amazing. Wonderful memories.

My favourite scene from the whole movie-that 4 octave voice!

This film was a great collaboration of many international actors and actresses!!!

The look of bewilderment on the face of James Garner is absolutely priceless 🤩😀🤪🤓

JA is the tops, the best. And a beautiful lovely lady as well. Thank you Julie for everything you've done in the entertainment world always a joy to watch.

Makes me cry thinking Ms. Andrews underwent a vocal tragedy shortly after... altering her voice ever after 😪 Never fear Ms. Andrews. You will always be our Maria/Victoria/Poppins ♥♥♥

AMAZING!! Also at the end when Norma gets so excited by the reveal…. I always die laughing

OMG...I can't even say how many times I have seen this movie. I had it on video. What a great film. Julie Andrew's vocal skills and Blake Edward's directing talent with Henry Mancini's music...fantastic.

My favorite scene from this, one of my favorite movies of all time. Julie Andrews just slays it. Plus, it sets up the rest of the movie with style.

This was so good, I wanted it not end. No one could have made this film any better.

God damn iconic , one of my absolute favorite movies

Literally THE BEST, MOST AWESOME, TIP TOP musical number from ANY MOVIE EVER!!!!!

One of the BEST movies EVER!!!

Absolutely wonderful and Julie Andrew's looks beautiful

Buen cuadro musical de una gran película.Victor Victoria.

Dame Julie Andrews is a goddess pure and simple. And don’t get me started on how great Miss Leslie Anne Warren was in this film also!❤

Julie. but also the dancers, Leslie Ann Warren, James Garner made this moment a great one

This is one of my favorite scenes in any movie. Julie Andrews is AMAZING!

Divine Julie Andrews!!!! One of the greatest voices in vocal history!!!! Great performance!!!

I know I'm years late to the discussion, but I am glad you included the part after the song. I think this one scene alone shows why Lesley Ann Warren was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.

Julie Andrews is a world treasure.

I'd forgotten how much I liked this movie.

The most icredicible voice. PERFECTION.. She is so beautiful, charming and fun!!! This movie always makes me happy!!!

Thanks for preserving this classic love it 💚⚡✅⚡💚

When my friends and I saw this in a theater the audience spontaneously stood up and cheered! It was the first time I had ever seen such a thing, and never again! One of her best performances, if not the?

This performance never gets old. I'm blown away every time I watch it!

My favorite Julie Andrews movie! Thank you Julie for your amazing talent.

Always a pleasure to watch and hear Julie Andrews. A wonderful actress and a marvelous singer. Thank you, Dame Julie.

We call this, “talent!” 🎉

One of my favorite singers

I remember seeing this film at the cinema when it first came out and the audience actually appaluded at the end of this song

[VICTORIA] 'Bout twenty years ago way down in New Orleans A group of fellers found a new kind of music And they decided to call it...jazz No other sound has what this music has Before they knew it, it was whizzin' 'round the world The world was ready for a blue kind of music And now they play it from Steamboat Springs to La Paz Oh, baby, won't you play me "Le Jazz Hot" maybe And don't ever let it end I tell you, friends, it's really something to hear I can't sit still when there's that rhythm near me Also, baby, "Le Jazz Hot" may be What's holdin' my soul together Don't know whether it's morning or night Only know it's sounding right So come on in and play me "Le Jazz Hot", baby 'Cos I love my Jazz... Hot! [ENSEMBLE] Before they knew it, it was whizzin' 'round the world The world was ready for a blue kind of music [VICTORIA] And now they play it from Steamboat Springs to La Paz! When you play me "Le Jazz hot", baby You're holding my soul together Don't know whether it's morning or night Only know it's sounding right So come on in and play me "Le Jazz Hot", baby 'Cos I love my Jazz...hot! Love... Jazz... Hot! "Le Jazz Hot!"

I love this movie. I love every movie of Julie’s.

Love this show!!!! Robert Preston is hilarious 😂

Nothing could be better than this cast and Julie Andrews was sublime, but it was based on a German film with the same plot made in 1933 at the height of their decadent era - think of Cabaret.

Julie Andrews is truly amazing.

Equally thrilling for me are the dancers all so beautiful ❤️ and OMG what a routine, stunning.

What I love about older films is that the musical numbers looked easy, but of course they were not! Recent films, try to make it complex and difficult, but they're easy, and there's just no comparison!

One of the greatest movies of all time with one of the greatest actresses of all time !!! We love you Julie !!!!

Such a talent the world may never see again.

Julie Andrews is one of the most Iconic Hollywood Goddesses ever, the only person able to make l someone love, who legit "hates" musical movies. JULIE GORGEOUS! 💚✨💎🎶🎶

Julie Andrews has such a beautiful voice--I've been a fan of hers since "The Sound of Music", and this is such a wonderful tune!😊⛪

Ok. Gotta watch that movie again. Isn't she just amazing? I saw her on tv recently and she's still lovely and gracious.

Just finished watching the movie about an hour ago. Wow.. I love it, it's amazing, beautiful, true, Julie's voice is a delight and the last scene brought tears to my eyes..

Best number in the entire film

The actors, the dancers, the amazing Julie, handsome James, fabulous Leslie, wow, Alex! WOW! And then Preston and Rhys Davis. HOT!

I first saw this movie on cable in the 90s when I was a young girl. I instantly fell in love with the story, actors/characters and of course the songs. Ms. Andrews is absolutely STUNNING!!!

I loved the movie, and saw it on Broadway. The whole movie case were phenomenal. Leslie Ann Warren was great, and Robert Preston perfect, and of course Julie and James, reunited again in film.

I love the stairway kick down.

Saw this at the movies in 82’ and absolutely loved it! Fantastic

This is my very favorite song from my very favorite Julie Andrews movie!!! Thank you for uploading and sharing.

I remember seeing this movie when it first came out. Everyone in it was simply phenomenal and Julie Andrews voice and range was amazing!
