Wow. I've been watching this for over 50 years and not once did the Nazis, Nuremburg or Leni Riefenstahl come to mind. And I am an ardent WWII-European theater history buff.
Wow! That Club Royale was some amazing night club, situated on an upper floor of a skyscraper with a gigantic dance floor, two orchestra stands, and a seating capacity of... just two? Well, I guess the cover charge must have been pretty high. I am sure Dick Powell could afford it. Next time though, Dick, make sure that balcony glass door remains locked!
Thank you so much for this! I think this is my favorite of all the BB dance sequences. There's nothing quite like hundreds of people tap dancing in unison.
Ahh the good old days, when the women were young and the men were young all could dance like CRAZY! I wonder how many takes it took for Busby Berkeley to capture this masterpiece?
Now thats more like it. I really like this scene even after the mass dance. The one uploaded it first cut that part for some reasonable purposes. But I really like this one Thanks for sharing it. And please don't put this down. Stay safe!!!
This is the greatest dance routine of all time, itwill never age and it will never die as long as I'm alive and I'm 76 now. And it was white people that did it.

one of the best #tapdance numbers in a movie #musical from technical, #choreography and #cinemaphotography aspect.

The ending always hits hard.
It reminds me of a Nuremberg rally, with tap dancing.
Wonder if Mel Brooks had it in mind when he did that scene in "The Producers".
Amazing !
Wish I could have seen this in the big theater. But not the great depression.
Did BB also coreograph 42nd street 2 yers earlier?
how can I archive this film and films like. it off youtube? I am afraid they will be banned eventually

Was criticized 1n 1935 for the Nazi-like steps and arm salutes.
If this is not fascist esthetics, then you can call me Leni Riefenstahl.
Hi Leni!
I was thinking the exact same thing and wanted to cut the two together
Those hot pants are so beautiful, and right as the depression swallowed the economy; fabulous.
