Sunday Night With Ginger and Fred

Always wished Mrs. Rational and I could dance like Fred and Ginger. But Latin was our specialty.

Sublime elegance.

Ginger did everything Fred did, backwards and in high heels.

Les Carpenter said...

The woman makes the man look good.

Leslie Parsley said...

The man "is" good. Light on his feet, graceful and precise. Not so much in this one but in other routines it seems his feet barely touch the floor.

Elegant is right. As opposed to Gene Kelly who was so athletic; almost a gymnast.

Shaw Kenawe said...

And I loved Gene Kelly's dancing as well. Trying to decide which dancer is better than the other, for me, is like trying to decide if Joe DiMaggio were a better ball player than Ted Williams.

They were both phenomenal. Even though one was a You-Know-What.

As a Bostonian, I cannot bring myself to even type out the dreaded name that begins with a capital "Y!"

Too funny!

If you like tap they do it together in Ziegfrld Follies, "The Babbitt and the Bromide".

I am a Dodger fan. The best thing New York ever sent LA.
