When I was a kid I watched an old BW post-war movie about some WW2 buddies who returned from the war and went their separate ways, then met back at a bar some time later and they all had changed and didn't think they had anything in common anymore (or something like that).

IIRC it was something of a comedy and may have been a musical, I do remember the bar scene at their reunion and it went into this little song about "Are these the guys I thought I could never live without" and each character would voiceover-sing a basic scathing summary of all his pals.

The only other scene I remember is that they had put some money in an envelope and put it in a ceiling fixture, and at the end of the movie they are all buds again back at the bar and are too broke to pay the tab or something when they remember the money in the fixture, which pays the bar tab.

Anyone else remember this movie, or even better remember what the title was?

"It's Always Fair Weather"

Starring Gene Kelly.

In one scene, Kelly actually did a TAP DANCE ROUTINE IN ROLLER SKATES!!

Wingnut, that's the one!

Another childhood question answered, thanks a bunch!

A GREAT movie + of course Gene Kelly who I greatly admired;+ then there was Cyd Charrise...Le pant,that woman had legs all the way up to her ass. I fell in love at an early age with that graceful woman.
