Lena Horne:
In 1946, I played the role of Julie in an excerpt from "Show Boat" in "Till the Clouds Roll By". I was being considered for the part for the 1951 version of "Show Boat". But, the production code office had banned interracial romance on the screen. So, the studio gave the part to my good friend Ava Gardner and she was wonderful in it. The studio had Ava rehearse singing the role to recordings I had made, hoping to get the part - which annoyed us both. Anyway, she did a great job on her own; but, just before releasing the film, the studio dubbed her with Annette Warren's voice.
