Song at the end of the film.


Anybody know what tune Hoagy Carmichael and the band strike up with as Lauren Bacall walks towards Bogey and wiggles her hips at the end of the film? It's a lively tune, with a touch of sass, but I don't recognise it.

The song that you're thinking of might be "Hong Kong Blues".

You're right! It's a jazz version of "How Little We Know"...the Carmichael-Mercer song that Bacall sings earlier.

I would like to know the name of the guy who plays that fantastic tin-whistle solo at the end of the film. He proved you can play jazz on the tin-whistle.

Yeah! The whole band was great! i am a mandolin player and was very pleasantly surprised to see a swing mando player in the movie... I wish we had credits for all the band members... the only thing in saw on IBDb was a credit for Hoagy himself.
