- To my dismay I could not find this gorgeous number from the MGM musical "On the Town" (1949) on You Tube, so had to upload it myself.

Two great dancers that will never disappoint their audience with their performances.

Justin Martyr 1. Get off of the booze. 2. Learn to spell. 3. Get therapy. Maybe then you can become a human being and stop being a little unimportant troll.
@@OrangeTabbyCat No better way to brighten the day than watching a musical number - I still have my tap shoes.
@@Justin.Martyr get a life
@@Justin.Martyr bro stfu,all the things you said describes your ignorant self more.
Gene Kelly is such an amazing, wonderful combination of cocky and tender. He's legend.
What ever happened to Vera Ellen? The only things I've ever seen her in are this one and White Christmas.
My grandmother's favourite dancer Miss Vera Ellen and my favourite dancer Mr Gene Kelly! ❤️💗❤️💗
They are so natural and free together. I love these old musicals so much.
I mean, that's what happens when you do take after take...
so do I
You're not alone!
AJ Yes perfection had to worked at in those days - once at least it had to be perfect all the way thru - no splicing when boo boos made back then
@@stormcloudsabound not always. stop downplaying it.
Gene Kelly, my favorite actor and great Dancer would be 107 years old today. I send a thousand greetings wherever he is.
What a beautiful old scene from an America gone by.
movie The G
Don't say that. That America; It's still here, you just have to look.
@Jim Stark bwahahaha!
Great point. It's not the same world, people, or ideals. It's not all bad - but the world lost its innocence. Perhaps its the innocence I love which keeps me tied to these old wonderful musicals - and the REAL talents and legends of the past!
@@johnnylnowlin that's interesting
Gene said of Vera that she was the only dancer he worked with that had the same work ethic as he did.
She was my Great Aunt. How I admired her and still do.
Lisa Curtis She sure was light on her feet, and made it look effortless. Pure, beauty. 😊
Lisa Curtis can you tell us something about her that fans might not know
@@tammylovesmakeup *There are MANY LIARS on U-Scum-Tube!!!*
@@Justin.Martyr I've met a relative of George Shearing here, Lisa might not be lying.
All the grace and class is gone from this world 😞
Only of you let it be. It's up to each of us to preserve the beauty of life sweetie.
Such great screen presences - the divine Vera-Ellen and the renowned Gene Kelly. From an era of truly astonishing musical entertainment. Thanks for all the pleasure and so wonderful to see it all again here . thanks.
These masters of dance make it look so easy. They’re amazing.
The "Main Street" number, from "On The Town", is yet another golden gift for us, and posterity, from a more innocent---and, in so many ways---better time. I watch "White Christmas" for one reason: Vera-Ellen. Gorgeous, yet winsome and wholesome. I would love to have met her. From all I've read and heard about her, meeting the real person would not, in any way, have been disillusioning. Quite the contrary.
I love these old movies so much that I memorize the choreography! I know this one by heart!
Me too
@@sundriesrebecakundomal2920 I feel like we'd be incredible friends. Lol
@@PrincessJax268 yes I think the same! I have in my Facebook a lot of music and film things. I have a great collection of old musical film. I have seen it since I was 10 with my mother. And love Fred, Gene, Vera, Cyd,. I you want we can be friends on Facebook. My name there is Sundri Kundomal. I'm from Spain.whe we can talk about cinema.Give me the invitation what is your name?
@@sundriesrebecakundomal2920 I'll send you an invite on Facebook
@@PrincessJax268 perfect!
From a time when Hollywood truly was a creator of dreams. When you would go to a cinema and slip away into a wonderland for a couple of hours, forgetting your daily grind for a while. A time when stars imparted grace and class. They could sing, they could dance, they could speak, they could act. Nowadays all it takes is to twerk.
One of the most touching dance sequences in the movies: Kelly and Vera Ellen are so well-matched: which is a huge tribute to her. Stunning dancing.
It's amazing that these two wonderful dancers could dance like this and , only the year before, perform that wonderful mini-ballet sequence : "Slaughter On 10th Avenue". What a range they had.
Wait, did he just say "He made an arrest way back in 93" like 1893?! 😂😂😂😂 That's gold.
As in 1903
I heard 1903
@@susanlloyd7395 He says Ninetyyyyy three
@@ponugups Nineteen three. Listen again. Not said as 1903 so it will scan better.
@@susanlloyd7395 You may be right.
Look at it from a different angle... 1893 or 1903 does not make a difference. As a non-native speaker, I was able to grasp the humor in the verse (the policeman still bragging about an age-old arrest). Cannot say the same thing about today's songs.
When I was a kid you could not pay me to watch such movies. Hmmm...50 years later they look pretty good.
People assume I'm gay because I know about stuff like this. What a strange world.
I fully understand you... I feel the same just loving dance. Dance make the world a better place !!!!
Dancing has nothing to do with being gay or not. I myself am a very bad dancer, but I adore watching people, who know how to dance. It is a real
pleasure to watch those beautiful movements!!! The dresses in the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s are simply wonderful!!
Chaucer...
Jim Stark Lol!
*You ARE a Gaaaayyyy*
Every man she dances with is like they are a perfect match...She's incredible.
These two wonderful, talented performers have such a natural flow when they dance. They made this number look so easy, flawless, and graceful but I know it took a lot of hard work.
What a moving scene: beautiful Melody, choreography, dancing. "On the town", my favorite Musical!
Whose watching this in these Conovirus times. Ain’t it marvellous. Vera of the 17 inch waist.
This was not only my late grandmother's favourite film but her favourite dance number. She past 4 years ago a week before her 94th birthday. She was my best friend Nd watching this over Nd over brings back so many happy memories.
That "what?" at 4:30 . When his voice cracks is honesty adorable ☺️
Gene Kelly said that Vera-Ellen was the best all around female dancer at MGM
It's hard to believe that they did "Slaughter On Tenth Avenue" one year earlier.That was so sexy and this number is so innocent. Vera Ellen said that the Slaughter ballet (choreographed by Kelly) was the highlight of her dancing career.
Vera-Ellen is so cute and adorable, there is something almost cartoon-like about her.
Wow what a babe always had a thing for vera but man could she dance to & with the top dancers of the time ,this has to be one of my fav dance numbers fron my fav film 😍😍
She is great in White Christmas....All the female dancers not only held their own.. but did it in heels and backwards to quote Ginger Rogers... when someone asked about Fred Astire.. there were so many talented dancers and many actresses who had to learn to dance... Rita Hayward, Jane Powell, Janet Leigh, Debbie Reynolds, Mitzi Gaynor. I could go on and on...same with all the male singers ,dancers and singers...we have some now that can hold their own.
I am amazed that they perfectly reflect each other’s emotions as well as their dance moves.
If this doesn’t lift your spirits nothing will
I have always been in love with Vera Ellen and wished i had lived in that era ..❤
Bravo!!! VeraEllen is a forgotten star that is just being discovered. She was a blond sensation like Judy Holliday that few remember. Best dance scene I've ever seen. Watching it at least 100 times!!
Same as that. Can't stop watching it.
@4:29 how flipping adorable is he?!
He's always adorable 😍😊❤️
I was thinking the same thing🤗
😍😍😍
Flipping.
@@zoezr1 Even when playing a murderer in "Christmas Holiday," with Deanna Durbin. He's still adorable! He had IT in spades.
I love Vera-Ellen. She's so amazing
This is one of my favorite songs that Gene Kelly sings. It's so sweet!
En que momento dejamos de entender el cine como unas horas de entretenimiento y felicidad y paso a ser un negocio sin que le preocupe que el publico salga de la sala pensando que eso de 1 día en New York es imposible de realizar como en la película ? Yo la vi con 9 años en 1970 en un cine de barrio...Y lo creí
I don't like our time.... I want to be there as they filmed this video... Breathe them, feel them
Really love this scene 😊
I'm starting to cry because there were such talents... And for the sake of this, we need to live and remember our actors and just the people who gave us a start in life!!!!
Haha, being whistled at and rated by a bunch of men and then talking to a cop sounds like the last thing I’d like to do lmfao, gorgeous dancing though
It's so effortless ... They must have practiced it a million times, but still they seem to really enjoy themselves
Happy Birthday, Gene.
You really know how to make this girl living in the 21st century very happy!
Thank you. Another great classical moment never to be lost or forgotten.
What talent! back then! and they rehearsed to perfection.
Grandma and Grandpa I'm thinking of you. I love you both so much 💗
Always loved Donald. He gave me so much joy in my youth, and I never missed a musical movie if he was in it. Saturday afternoon movies - I loved 'em! As with the recent "Mumma Mia", I always left the cinema happy and smiling, thanks to Mr O'Connor.
Rumor has it that Vera Ellen and Gene Kelly were best of pals off screen. Gene gave Vera opportunities in terms of her career and she was very appreciative. Supposedly, Vera-Ellen would come over to Gene’s place and hangout over coca-colas.
Danças
Maravilhosos, filme maravilhoso!
Everytime I see these films it reminds me of my Dad.He loved American movies and big bands.
She was a elegant dancer so light on her feet definitely was as good as gene
昔から疑問なのだが、踊りの中盤ジーンが手でスクエアを描くのは何を表しているのでしょうか？
I could be wrong but I always thought Vera-Ellen never got the credit she deserved.
Gene and Vera-Ellen looking wonderful together. I love this scene so much. Gene Kelly was very good looking and he had a lot of sex appeal as well as being a multi talented person. Vera-Ellen was also an amazing dancer.
Thank you for upload it! :)
Vera Ellen and Gene Kelly... awesome!!!
Watched this movie for the first time last week and I fell in love with it. It is just wonderful.
What did you think about it.
Oh my gosh what a lovely couple of dancers. Cheers.
Best tap dancing shtick I have ever seen in my life!
No wonder she could dance, her feet were bigger than Gene Kelly’s...
The Best. You Will Never See Their Likes Again. Thanks For The Video.
Molto bello rivedere. Questi
Grandi attori è Can tanti
Ballerini bravi ss im i
‘Tis complete choreography had been copied I guess in a southindian movie I don’t wann to go further more original is always original and the copied version still has some good dancing steps the star and the costar really gave there best in that South Indian movie song, I do liked the performance of that song as well
What is the movie called
Beautiful. And now we have Cardi B ...! 😢
Thankyou so kindly for sharing this MGM musical with us!, I love Kelly's lyrical luminesence and Allen's intrigued side-eyed wondering of him!. They tap so touchingly terrific together - beats Astair and Ginger anyday. Genuine romance now withered alongside the paramount archives on and off screen - please bring it back!
Vera Ellen... Absolutely Divine 💗💗
No unit shoulder tab, no rank. Only Naval Veterans would notice this. Other than that, the routine was fantastic.
We all know how wild Kelly and Vera-Ellen can dance... this was just smooth.. smooth and nice dancing by two outstanding dancers.
Sencillamente una maravilla del cine musical.
Uno de los mejores números del cine musical de la gran película Un día en Nueva York (One the town ) 1949.
Inmejorable el baile de Vera Ellen y Gene Kelly.
I just watched this movie a few nights ago, and I just fell in love with Gene Kelly's performance!! I think he's inspired me to dance! 😂 😂 I just wish I could've met Gene, he seems to be such a kind hearted man! Unfortunately he passed away a year before I was born! May he rest in peace! ❤️
He was so handsome💞
Goosebumps every time! PERFECTION. :)
It's been said the Vera was the best female dancer Metro ever had
Vera-Ellen had a lot if appeal and was a nice actress. She always seemed underrated. Considering her versatile dance ability. Perfect together.
Amazing this was a great film
Thanks Gene, for all your great dancing and the beautiful songs. Nobody could do it better. You stay the Favorite in the World.
I love you !
I had been seeing this movies since I was 10 years first with my mother that love it, then I have buying all and I saw it in every moment alone or with my mother, she has now 77 and has a little dementia but she love it. I'm 46 and that magig happens everytime you see tieese films. Love Fred, Gene, Vera, Cyd, Arthur Fredd, Vincente Minelli, Stanley Donen and all the people that works in this year's in MGM hairdressers, designers, The Golden Era.. I would love to live those years there working in anything 💜💜💜💜💜
At least we know that Gaby is going to have to marry Ivy after his hitch in the navy. Their parents probably know each other in Meadowville.
Absolute talent...........excellent orchestration and musicianship.
I love her shoes! I like these old films and I wish the more positive aspects of the older days was still alive!
She was such a tiny little beauty.
And then we can stop and chat with a cop on main street He made an arrest a way back in nineteen three He'll ask me who is the pretty stranger, How proud I'm going to be when you walk down main street with me.
My favorite scene from my all time favorite Musical: 1949 On the Town
Bingo.
The best dance song scene ever!!!! Obsessed!
Two of the all time greats. I always loved Vera.
Class, class and more class!
Love Vera Ellen but I simply do not believe the quote allegedly from Kelly.
I have read multiple biographies and never heard it from him.
He. Admired Eleanor Powell the most & loved Garland’s hoofing, had a crush on Miller and had much good to say about many partners but never heard a shout out about Vera Elllen.
"This is wanted to see,Mr. Gene Kelly tap'dancing with a woman,who was also a skillful dancer. . .8--19--2021"
Yes, I'll marry you and even move back to Indiana-if that's what it takes.
There will never be another GENE KELLY BUT MITIZ GANYOR IS STILL DANCING CHECK HER OUT.
笑顔で楽しそうに踊るヴェラ、かわい❤
He was so adorable and gorgeous 😍😍😍😍😍
She*
One of Vera’s great talents was to emulate the style of her partner. You can really see that here. She and Gene are just great together and such beautiful dancing!
They really don't make 'em like they used to....old school America, we really aught to fight to get it back these days more than ever.
Gene is the most goregeus man in this movie! I love you forever Gene my baby!!!!! :D
Wonderful song and dance, thanks for uploading it!
Gyönyörű film
Gene Kelly and Vera-Ellen so good together. One of my favourite scenes from "On the Town". Gene was so gorgeous in every way. Love you Gene. 🌹
