Great movie songs with dance scenes. Great not just good.

This one is more in keeping with the original thread title...

Nicholas Brothers from Stormy Weather Also check out Fred Astaire and Eleanor Powell doing Begin The Beguin on Youtube. Someday I'm going to learn how to past the songs and dances.

At the top of the list of all the threads Nan has links to Boneyard lessons including posting videos. If I was able to figure it out I’m confident you can too.

Fosse did several in "All That Jazz" including the spectacular "Air-rotica" featuring Sandahl Bergman. A little adult for some, so I included his leggy vaudeville turn to Peter Allen's "Everything Old is New Again" with Ann Reinking and Erszebet Foldi serenading Roy Scheider.

 

[WestsideWaltz]

Fosse's "On Broadway" was pretty spectacular as well.

 

[WestsideWaltz]

This one might not be too popular, but "Xanadu" so completely captured the SoCal scene in the late '70s. Gene Kelly was a fantastic skater and was reportedly unhappy because his feet were not filmed.

 

[WestsideWaltz]

Although the movie version of "A Chorus Line" was a disaster, it did include the dancing of the late Gregg Burge, arguably the best show dancer of that era.

 

[WestsideWaltz]

Joan McCracken was Fosse's second wife and became famous as a comedic dancer in the Broadway company of "Oklahoma". This number from "Hollywood Canteen" proves how great she was. Very funny, very charming and tells a story and creates a character through movement. When she starts the Lindy after being drugged, it's an amazing moment.

 

[WestsideWaltz]

The Roz Russell movie of "Gypsy" is considered a flop but "You Gotta Have A Gimmick" is perfectly transcribed from the show. Faith Dane's Mazeppa was written for her after she auditioned playing the bugle. She passed last month at the age of 98. Watch for the tight close up of Natalie Wood at 5:00. You see the lightbulb go on in her eyes. That's the moment where Gypsy Rose Lee is born.

 

[WestsideWaltz]

Lucy in a dance montage, some from movies (though thankfully not "Mame"), most from "I Love Lucy". I had forgotten how much dancing was in ILL and I was laughing throughout much of this video. Lucy, was really, really great.

 

[WestsideWaltz]

The Ross Sisters were a novelty act pushed by MGM. You can see why they didn't succeed but still interesting.

 

[WestsideWaltz]

Allow me to deviate. Bruce Willis and Sandahl Bergman in Moonlighting. Billy Joel was such a fan that he wrote "Big man on Mulberry Street" for the show. Bergman is weirdly decked out to look like Peggy Bundy. Stanley Donen directed this fantasy segment that created quite a splash because it was the first time Dave and Maddie kissed. It's hard to imagine any other weekly show doing something this creative.

How bout another from Grease? Not really one dance but a bunch of great dancers

That Begin the Beguine is a nice tune. Is there a bad versuion?

 

[Waquoit]

Here's my favorite musical scene from a sit-com. I loved Nardo. Song starts at :49.

 

[WestsideWaltz]

Not a lot of people know Bobby Van, so they are sadly unaware of this incredible scene. It was done in one continuous take and I was exhausted after simply watching.

This was from a 1940 film. Fred never danced with Ms Powell again , and it was because she was too good. Her feet were faster than his, and he did not want his female partner upstaging him. At least that is what I once read in a piece about his dance partners.

I think it is a great song. My older sister had a Flamingos album in the early 60s and my Dad always wanted to hear them "Begin the Beguine".

 

[Kaizen]

A very sad song, also called graduation song.
Vivian Leigh is so beautiful and charming, Robert Taylor is very handsome, they're best match.

Anne Reinking was my favorite show performer, and then along came Sutton Foster. Both so talented and vivacious and legs that went forever!
