Not many people know that during the filming, Soviet premier Khrushchev famously visited the 20th Century Fox studios and was shocked by the final dance scene. He took the opportunity to make propaganda use of his visit and described the dance, and by extension American culture, as "depraved" and "pornographic."
originally when it was first performed it was done completely without underwear. True. That is the main reason for it being banned and being performed "underground".
@@kevincoxhead7137 Oh yeah I remember hearing that! Completely without knickers! That's why it was so scandalous, they weren't showing their underwear, they just didn't have any!!
I recall first hearing this song when I saw a Gay Mens Chorus (that one of my sister's ex-boyfriends' father belonged to). They had a bunch of guys come out in Can-Can style dresses while singing the song. It was hilarious!
rego007 this is an instrumental of the title song from the musical “Can-Can” by Cole Porter. This scene is from the film adaptation of that musical, but they decided to drop the lyrics to it and just have it as a dance.

It was actually forbidden for years. Because it was called "porn" or what they called it at their time.
That would explain the old woman's reaction and high usage of legs.

I don't know what that tune was, but it certainly wasn't the "Galop Infernal".
smwca123. The can can is the name of the dance not the song. It was performed to many different tunes.
What is the name of this particular song?

Is this the frist colour film
No, first color film was the Wizard of Oz, I think.
... That's.... That's not the song ._.
The can can is the name of the dance. It was performed to a variety of similar pieces, including the one you are thinking of. The infernal gallop.
ah!
