Quite possibly the scene that earned Shirley MacLaine her first Oscar nomination, in the otherwise sub-Sirkian 1958 melodrama, Some Came Running. Stealing most of the scenes she appears in as the unpolished good-time-girl Ginny Moorehead, this nightclub sequence sees MacLaine belting out a drunken rendition of the 1918 Layton and Creamer standard After You've Gone, with an audience of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. (The Best Actress Oscar that year went instead to Susan Hayward in I Want To Live! MacLaine would finally win her acting Oscar on the fifth attempt in 1984 for Terms of Endearment).
