After he and Barbara Stanwyck went to the dark side and plotted murder by supermarket canned goods in Billy Wilder's 1944 film noir classic, DOUBLE INDEMNITY, and years before he played the insurance company executive cheating on his wife again in Billy Wilder's 1960 classic, THE APARTMENT, Fred MacMurray sang in an original musical comedy movie. Very original. 20th Century Fox's 1945 release, WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?, was a modern-day time travel fantasy musical comedy. MacMurray played a lovable dork during World War II who wants to join the Army. However, he doesn't meet the physical requirements to be a G.I. Bill Morgan (MacMurray) is disappointed when he's declared 4-F. Like Aladdin, the rejected Bill Morgan encounters a hip genie who can take him back in time to experience major historical events. Are you one of those folks who just said "Fred MacMurray could sing?" Yes. This very versatile and very underappreciated actor sang in a few of his 1930s Paramount movies such as THE PRINCESS COMES ACROSS (1936) with Carole Lombard and SING,YOU SINNERS (1938) co-starring Bing Crosby and little Donald O'Connor. Freddie Mac had a good singing voice.
Following WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?, his filmography is all drama and comedies until Disney's 1967 box office dud of a musical, THE HAPPIEST MILLIONAIRE.
His 1945 Fox fantasy featured original songs with music by Kurt Weill and lyrics by Ira Gershwin.
The genie zaps Bill back in time to be a sailor on the Christopher Columbus voyage. Since today is Indigenous Peoples' Day, formerly known as Columbus Day, I thought I'd show you Fred MacMurray's number while he was onboard ship. It's a long number but stay with it.
WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? also starred Joan Leslie, dancer June Haver (who became Mrs. Fred MacMurray), Gene Sheldon as the genie and Anthony Quinn as one of the indigenous people.
