As well as The King and I, her films include An Affair to Remember; From Here to Eternity; Quo Vadis; The Innocents; Black Narcissus; Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison; King Solomon's Mines; The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp; The Sundowners and Separate Tables.

Louis Armstrong plays a song for his wife while in Egypt in 1961. The Sphinx seems to be enjoying it too. He’s not singing along because he doesn’t know the words.
