Deborah Kerr Videos

Deborah Kerr's voice is not the voice your hear singing in the Video.

The "Voice" you hear is that of voice over artist, Marni Nixon.

Dedorah Karr was a wonderful actress, but her singing was just passible.

Marni nixon also did the singing for actresses in My Fair Lady and West Side Story.

Deborah Kerr most famous scene

FROM HERE TO ETERNITY (1953).

Who could forget "the scene" with Deborah Kerr kissing Burt Lancaster in the surf.
Probably the most famous embraces for all time. It was considered rather hot and steamy in its day.
