Marilyn Monroe sung it. It's the time the film is being _made_ that matters, not the period the story line is set in. As she was born in 1926, she didn't sing anything in any movies before 1905. IIRC, she did sing it for President John F. Kennedy, but that was not in a movie, and the setting was not pre-1905. No, you missed the point. The period time the story is set in is relevant because it shows a time anomaly when a song copyrighted in 1935 is sung in 1200 AD in the Dark Ages. Now do you understand? |
