Tributo a Leslie Nielsen (1926-2010)

Morreu ontem, nos EUA, o ator canadense Leslie Nielsen

Nielsen virou celebridade pelas comédias que estrelou a partir de 1980 (Corra que a Polícia Vem Aí, Apertem os Cintos que o Piloto Sumiu, etc.).

Do YouTube, selecionei o vídeo abaixo, com cenas de um dos filmes mais marcantes de sua longa carreira: “The Poseidon Adventure” (O Destino do Poseidon), de 1972. Numa película estrelada por grandes atores, como Gene Hackmann, Ernest Borgnine, Roddy McDowall e Shelley Winters (indicada para o Oscar de Melhor Atriz Coadjuvante e vencedora do Globo de Ouro de Melhor Atriz Coadjuvante), Nielsen interpretou o comandante do navio (Capitão Harrison), e é o primeiro a aparecer no vídeo (aos 0’30’’).

A canção de fundo é uma das mais belas já feitas para o cinema – "The Morning After" (Oscar de Melhor Canção Original, composta por Al Kasha e Joel Hirschhorn, e interpretada por Maureen Mcgovern).

Cifras para "The Morning After"

Letra para "The Morning After"
(Canção Tema do Filme "O Destino do Poseidon")

There's got to be a morning after
If we can hold on thru the night
We have a chance to find the sunshine
Let's keep on looking for the light.

Oh can't you see the morning after?
It's waiting right outside the storm
Why don't we cross the bridge together
And find the place that's safe and warm.

It's not too late, we should be giving
Only with love can we climb
It's not too late, not while we're living
Let's put our hands out in time.

There's got to be a morning after
We're moving closer to the shore
I know we'll be there by tomorrow
And we'll escape the darkness
We won't be searching anymore.

There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after).
