`Trumbauer even gave him the first two words, "Georgia, Georgia...", which Carmichael ended up using while working later on the song with his roommate, Stuart Gorrell. Gorrell's name was absent from the copyright application papers submitted to the U.S. Copyright Office, but Carmichael sent him royalty checks afterwards anyway`

"In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening" is a #popular song with music by #HoagyCarmichael, and lyrics by #JohnnyMercer. It was originally planned to feature it in a #ParamountPictures film written for #BettyHutton, that never took off, which was to be called The #MackSennett Girl, or Keystone Girl. The song was buried in Paramount's files until it was rediscovered and then used in the 1951 film #HereComesTheGroom and won the #AcademyAwardForBestOriginalSong.
