The 1952 Movie "Everything I Have Is Yours"

 The 1952 movie Everything I Have Is Yours tells a story of a married couple who are professional dancers. The two characters -- Chuck and Pamela Hubbard -- are played by an actual married couple of professional actor-dancers -- Gower Champion and Marge Champion. 

In the movie's story, the Hubbards have just opened a Broadway dancing show in which they are the stars. Right after the show's opening night, however, Pamela learns that she is pregnant. Pamela immediately is replaced by her understudy, a character named Sybil Meridan (played by the actress-dancer Monica Lewis).

The Hubbards buy a home in Connecticut, where Pamela stays home (far from Broadway) as a housewife-mother. Meanwhile, Chuck and Monica star successfully in a series of Broadway dance shows. After about four years, Pamela decides to resume her dancing career. Pamela's decision leads to her divorce from Chuck. At the end of the movie, Pamela and Chuck reconcile. They will resume their marriage as Pamela continues her dancing career. 

I had never heard of this movie until it was broadcast recently on the TCM cable-television channel. I liked the movie very much. The movie is full of great dancing, beautiful clothes and bright colors. 

I assume that the movie authentically portrays the lifestyle of the real-life Champions  at the beginning of the 1950s. The Champions obviously earned a lot of money as performers, choreographers and producers on Broadway and in Hollywood. Also, the Champions were familiar with the situations that developed when a pregnancy occurs within a couple of professional dancers. If the woman became pregnant, then she interrupted her career to give birth and raise the baby. In this movie, there is no mention of abortion as an option. 

The following YouTube videos show the movie's trailer and several dance numbers. 

 

The below videoclip takes place after a late-night rehearsal for the new Broadway play. Not knowing yet that she is pregnant, Pamela does not feel well, and so Chuck tries to cheer her up.  (This scene is somewhat similar to the Gene Kelly's rain scene in the movie <i>Dancing in the Rain</i> which also was released in 1952.)

The below videoclip takes place about four years after Pamela has given birth. Chuck brings a group of his Broadway colleagues to the family home in Connecticut for a party. To entertain everyone, Sybil sings a song.  

After Sybil sings her song, Pamela performs a song a dance that she has been practicing in her still secret plan to resume her acting-dancing career.

As their divorce is being finalized, Pamela fantasizes about her regretful relationship with Chuck.
