"Ann-Margret ... When You're Smiling" (1973)Rod Taylor appears in a movie clip presented on this one-hour musical variety show starring Ann-Margret. The NBC presentation on April 4, 1974, was an edited version of Ann-Margret's Las Vegas stage act and drew more than 51 million viewers. The special featured lavish musical numbers led by Ann-Margret and cameo appearances by Bob Hope and George Burns. During one costume change, the star showed a film clip of highlights and behind-the-scenes footage of "The Train Robbers," which she had just finished shooting in Durango, Mexico. At the end of the film clip is a sequence of Ann-Margret and Rod Taylor doing some rifle shooting. She tosses up a tin can, he aims, fires and shoots it right through the middle. Then, it's her turn. Rod tosses up the can, she aims ... mis-aims, shoots, and Rod's hat flies off. It's all a gag, very much silent-movie style. Ann-Margret and Rod look like they're having a blast. |
