The Elegance and Grace of both those dancers was very different from each other yet their Dance number together was and still is the best of all time. In my opinion. You could see the fluidity and ease of the Ballet Dancer well the Tap Dancer had a similar style but was a little more tense in his movements. both showed the strength and beauty of Dance together, which made it Breathtaking. It is sad that we have lost this type of beauty in today's Movies. All we can do is treasure these Classics and re-watch them as much as we want 😊.
2 of the greatest dancers--- they pushed the boundaries a tap dancer and a famous dancer from the ballet. Who would think they would compliment each other so well.
They are both incredible. Two of the greatest in their prime. Greg Hines lacks a little bit of Baryshnikov's flexibility but makes up for it with incomparable grace and fire; you can't take your eyes off him.
Fumble: In tap you’ve got to have flexibility, but you must tighten up to land a tap on the floor. Ballet’s flexibility transcends the floor, as it’s just where you may land, if there’s no male partner.
Yes, and I would add THEN also observe the entire piece together after observing each individual style. They do sync. I am here because I saw a part of this clip on Twyla Tharp's bio on PBS and I wanted to see more. When you see Twyla's method, it brings so much more to this table. All amazing talents. And to those on here who have bashed David Pack...oh, please. His vocals can carry any song. This was the eighties, people, and the 80s had a certain sound, didn't they. I really like it. I've enjoyed it so much, gotta buy the DVD now.
Two totally different dance carriages in their bodies! Tap dancers and ballet dancers carry themselves so differently. This is a very clear way of seeing that. It’s pretty amazing how that is.
I actually think Hines does this particular dance marginally better than Misha. It is tap, and he is obviously more comfortable in the form. Misha is always the first to admit that there are certain dances does not do as well as others... Tango for example.
Oh Gregory....I hope you are dancing on the loveliest beach, in the sweetest home, surrounded by the best music and light....you gave me so much joy just watching you act...whether in White Knights or Waiting To Exhale or Running Scared...you were AWESOME....so dance and sing and live in the light....
Loved Running Scared. I wish they had done more movies together. They were a great comedy team (Gregory Hines & Billy Crystal) but the critics hated Running Scared & they never did another movie together
@@joecombs7468 We all know that Running Scared was a typical buddy cop movie, but it DID work, just as White Knights worked but Knights was on a more artistic and fusion level. Greg was a natural actor, but his first nod was his dancing, and as others have commented Mischa is his own masterpiece. I think people should realize genre and give movies like Running Scared and White Knight a break. They're not supposed to be hard core action adventure movies. They simply combine street with creativity, whether it be music, dance, or comedic timing, and let's face it, comedic timing is hard, for anyone who has ever tried it. And when you go back and see interviews by Billy, he absolutely adored Greg, they were great friends. Don't we all miss Gregory Hines, gone too soon.
@@moonlightlady6126 when I saw running scared I walked out thinking "I can't WAIT until the next movie they do together." And white knights Mischa -- what can anyone say. Best ballet dancer ever. When I was young I thought no one could do soft shoe like Sammy. I used to wonder if anyone could take that mantle when he was gone. Then I saw Greg and I wasn't wondering any more. The new king of soft shoe. When I saw them dance together at the theater I knew I had to own that movie as soon as it came out. We were robbed. He died way too young.
I saw Gregory Hines at the Grand in Galveston. He already had lost a lot of weight due to cancer.( I realized that in retrospect.) I think that's why he took a break during his show after doing the stair routine. He asked all former and current hoofers to come up on stage. My husband and friends "encouraged" me to go (they pushed me!). I hadn't danced in a long time and he asked each of us to do a little tap dance. I think I was the last one. to go. He was my hero. I loved and missed tap dancing, having to work hard for a living. When he summoned me, I just hugged him. It took him off guard, and me too! All I could remember was an old standard Time Step dance. After I began, he stopped me, having recognized the dance, took my hand and danced it with me. I thought I was in heaven! He didn't dance with anyone else. It was a year later that he passed away. I wrote a letter to his father and received a reply from Negrita, his fiancé, in which she sent me the prayer card from his funeral. What a thrill.
That is an absolutely beautiful story, incorporating years of history of one of the greats in tapdancing, with multiple generations of tapdancers. Thank you so much for sharing. 🙂
I got to see Hines in Vegas in the mid-80s, in one of those places where you sit at tables instead of theater-type seats. My seat was RIGHT next to the stage; I literally could rest my elbows on it & Hines was within about 3 feet. He was utterly mesmerizing; I knew from seeing him on film that he was an incredible dancer & actor & babe, but in person....holy moly! The electricity & charisma poured off him in near-visible waves, and the way he moved was almost superhuman. We're both lucky he didn't end up slipping in the big puddle of my drool. OTOH, I coulda leaped up onto the stage, saved & comforted him, & had his everlasting gratitude. Ah, dreams.
Loved this movie... I danced the shit out of this album. Was 11 when it came out. Always knew I'd be a professional dancer. Had 25 year career so glad and still remain inspired by these 2 legends xxx
I have lost count the number of times I have watched this masterpiece of a movie...and the selected dances, this among them, hundreds of times. The shere beauty, magical rhythm and display of a classical and tap dance genius... breathtaking!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🏽
@Elle Tuppen: I'm glad that you like the movie. Personally, while having two great actresses (Isabella Rossellini and Helen Mirren -- wow!) and two extraordinary dancers I don't believe I need to name, I didn't find the plot plausible. However, those dance scenes which -- let's face it -- were the point and the reason for this movie, make up for everything. And, as Pamela Jordan pointed out, "Prove Me Wrong" does "prove" that sometimes perfection can exist in this world.
If you have the DVD, the directors commentary is really good. At one point he described how easy it is to work with dancers, because, unlike normal actors who get restless after multiple takes to get everything perfect... dancers are content to do it again and again and again to get it perfect. He described choreographers as sadists, and dancers as masochists!!
I recently watched "death & the young man" scene, the opening of the movie...Baryshnikov is so unbelievably gifted...pure pleasure to watch again and again. 😑☺️
Mama showed me White Nights recently. I love Gregory Hines but I can’t take my eyes off of Misha. This scene is a masterpiece! 🥰❤️ I’m so happy we watched it.
I love watching the coming together of two different dance styles-well controlled disciplined ballet training and free style disciplined training of the movement of jazz and tap dancing...so fun to watch both of them move together in this routine
Anyone notice that the singer is David Pack from Ambrosia? One of my favourite singer. Love the different styles of Gregory and Misha. Both are great dancers and a pleasure to watch.
My favorite dance clip - possibly favorite clip of any sort - from this uneven but worthwhile movie. Watching these two great performers (dancers and actors, both) dance together like that... makes me happy even as it makes me ache inside.
Feb.14th: Happy birthday Tap Dancer-Choreographer-Actor-Singer Gregory Oliver Hines (1946-2003) "White Nights" "Running scared" "Will & Grace" "Tap." "A Rage In Harlem." Thank you and God bless. When I heard about this pairing, pre-production, I couldn't wait to see it; I knew it would be something special. Thank you and God bless. RIP Dancer. Thanks for the upload, elnim. Blessings
After all these years, my soul continues to be touched beyond words, as we watch these two preeminent masters of their respective crafts, dance with such beauty. It still makes me cry ❤
I love this dance sequence! I have watched it over & over again. I find it amazing how the same dance routine is executed by masters in two different dance genres- Hines, in tap & Baryshnikov, in ballet, simultaneously. The differences in their styles of dance are evident, & yet they complement each other wonderfully. Bravo, Gentlemen! Mr. Hines, your talents are missed, RIP.
I could watch this forever! When two *worlds mingle* (and not collide)! What an awesome performance by two extraordinary artists: Gregory Hines (rest in Paradise, beautiful Person) and Mikhail Baryshnikov. Both trained in different dance fields, bringing grace, charisma, talent (and so much more), gliding across that dance floor!👯💙💙 LPeaceM
This is David Pack from Ambrosia singing - he wrote the song as well as preformed it for the movie. ..this movie has a really broad range throughout the soundtrack.
I'm still a huge David Pack fan today. He has amazing vocal range always did, but he's a heckuva great song writer as well. Try a song called Deliver Me by David. Just a really great song, and another great one is Natalie, his tribute to the late Natalie Wood. Listen for the part where it says "Why are you lying there so silently alone, I don't know"...it will literally break your heart. On this song, "Prove Me Wrong" I think David should have just just delivered the song into the microphone or in cameo sans the guitar, it would have worked better in his vid, but the song definitely does work in White Knights.
Feb.14: Happy birthday Dancer-actor-singer Gregory Oliver Hines (1946-2003) Thank you and God bless. Thanks for the upload, elnim. Outstanding 'marriage' / movie. Blessings
I saw Baryshnikov dance with the NYC Ballet. There was always something going on above the neck - unlike most other Russian dancers. He actually seemed to love what he was doing.
The first movie I ever got on VHS that was not a 'self' recorded tape off of a bent index card in the black dial cable box for 80's style botlegged HBO and Showtime movies ...lol! For my best friend's 18th birthday our senior year I got private box balcony seats to see Misha dance with Twyla Tharpe and White Oaks. I still remember it was just yesterday! I saved money all summer working at my part time $3.25 per hour job to buy the $178 per person tickets!!
Although they are both incredible, I don’t think Hines could do what Barry does. So much more intense training. But it was a pleasure to see these two icons together!
Barishnikov, le plus grand le meilleur danseur du monde... J'aurais adoré qu'il prenne la suite de Noureev à Paris.. Vous avez de la chance de l'avoir aux USA.🙏
If you really watch, you can see that though Baryshnikov could do this and do it well, it was not his "natural" dance form as it was for Hines. Hines' movements are loose and free, while the balletic control still comes through in Baryshnikov's and holds him back somewhat.
When they filmed this these two men were the best in the world. It's not usual to see a soft shoe & a ballet dancer on the same stage together. I went to watch this at the theater just to see these two dance together. Gregory died way to young. I didn't even know he had cancer and then he was gone.
Broke my heart when he died. Such an amazingly gifted dancer and wonderful actor. Gone way too soon 💔 One is my favorite performances of him is as Sandman Williams in The Cotton Club. He does a tap sequence on steps that blew my mind.
First of all. I LOVE this dance sequence. I keep coming back to view it😎 However, you see a HUGE difference between 1:36-1:42. Mikhail is smooth and balanced. Hines is off balance and loses his footing before going into the next sequence. Mikhail is a far superior dancer to most dancers...even if he's doing tap😉 He is SO smooth!
Sol de media noche! Gran película. Toda la música me gustó. Creo que ya no está ni en TH-cam. La vi como 10 veces y me gustaría volver a verla. Años sin verla.
![Gregory Hines & Mikhail Baryshnikov: Get Off Your Ass! (White Nights - 1985) [HD]](/img/n.gif)
I still can't tear my eyes off of Mikhail Baryshnikov. Just like in the 80's. This is when I learned the difference between handsome and sexy.
and the combination of BOTH, mmmmmm!
The Elegance and Grace of both those dancers was very different from each other yet their Dance number together was and still is the best of all time. In my opinion. You could see the fluidity and ease of the Ballet Dancer well the Tap Dancer had a similar style but was a little more tense in his movements. both showed the strength and beauty of Dance together, which made it Breathtaking.

SO beautiful to watch!! ❤
Ok
Watching Baryshnikov... are there even words to describe this man when he dances?
roberta scholten watching this movie and seeing him dance was what made me appreciate ballet.
Misha floats when he dances.
They are both incredible. Two of the greatest in their prime. Greg Hines lacks a little bit of Baryshnikov's flexibility but makes up for it with incomparable grace and fire; you can't take your eyes off him.
Could not agree more.
Fumble: In tap you’ve got to have flexibility, but you must tighten up to land a tap on the floor. Ballet’s flexibility transcends the floor, as it’s just where you may land, if there’s no male partner.
It's because Gregory Hines is tall. He has long legs. And Makhail is a ballerina. Its hard to get some moves when your tall and long legs.
Ballet defies gravity; tap colludes with gravity.
I love to watch Misha, so graceful and precise.
Well, we know they did they own dancing. No need for body doubles
...right.... like anyone could
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No one could come close to those two
Two masters of their craft
This was then as is now a highlight of the film! And I really miss Gregory Hines.
you really have to watch this twice once for mr hines, and once for mischa.
donnchadh mcgrath
Yes it's true. You can not set eyes on both of them at the same time.
Good idea. Now I have to watch it again. I wonder if they watched it afterwards and compared themselves to each other?
Lol true!!!
DANG. What SATISFACTION!!!!
Yes, and I would add THEN also observe the entire piece together after observing each individual style. They do sync.

Great ballet dancer, great tap dancer. 2 Iconic men in their fields, dancing together. Truly wonderful
Two totally different dance carriages in their bodies! Tap dancers and ballet dancers carry themselves so differently. This is a very clear way of seeing that. It’s pretty amazing how that is.
I was noticing the same thing!
I actually think Hines does this particular dance marginally better than Misha. It is tap, and he is obviously more comfortable in the form. Misha is always the first to admit that there are certain dances does not do as well as others... Tango for example.
A little sprinkle of martial arts too.
@@girlfromthebronxbywayofelb7288 😻 Absolutely!

Twyla Tharp was an excellent choreographer. She mixed Tap and ballet without over shadowing each other

Two beautiful dancers, so different but both glorious.
I really like how their different dance styles mesh so well together.
the chemistry when they exchange glances! I have been watching this once-OK, more than once-a day for weeks.

I love this movie! Gregory Hines was a talent and a gentleman. RIP.
Absolutely! He holds his own against what may have been the finest ballet dancer of the 20th century.
@@catgal465 Both are different and they know it. So no competition and together they create something mesmerising

Watched many times in my childhood but couldnt remember name of movie. Glad i found.

What do you mean by "I've been around?"
Adore this ,both of them are such amazing talented dancers.
Several choreographers worked on this film. This dance however is Twyla Tharp.
Those kicks! Those bodies! That skill! They were amazing.
No question that is talent! Never get tired of watching them. ❤️
So much handsome, talented amazing and magnificent Barishnikov😘👏🏻🎼

Yeah, and I tell ya, it ain’t pretty.
MISHA AND GREGORY BEAUTIFUL MOVIE!!
Love the movie White Nights. This is the best part of the movie.
Two of our best athletes of all time, we just didn't realize it, till they were gone. Beautiful, graceful & powerful all at the same movements.
Misha is still alive.

This is so beautiful. Love TH-cam to allow me to enjoy all the greatness of the past, and thank you for posting this!
This is so great! Two different styles but together it´s one perfect dance!
Two legends, both gone. This is one of my favorite all time movies.
If you mean "gone" as in, not actively dancing, then yep. But while we lost Hines (RIP), Baryshnikov is still with us, thank goodness.
Baryshnikov was on CBS Sunday morning a couple months ago. It’s an amazing interview. CBS Sun posts a lot of their pieces on TH-cam. Worth watching!!
@@melaniesharp397 yes, I saw that interview. It was great. Thanks!
I saw Baryshnikov dance with the NYC Ballet. There was always something going on above the neck - unlike most other Russian dancers. He actually seemed to love what he was doing.
Нет слов. Мастерство 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
One of my favorite dance scenes. Love the difference in style. I agree. Watch it twice.
I love this choreography
RIP Gregory Hines.
GREAT ENSEMBLE/ TWO DIFFERENT STYLES !
I wore my tap and jazz shoes every where. You’d have to pry me off my dance shoes in elementary school, junior high and highschool
The amazing camera work makes this dance scene even better.
This was a good movie.
Such a wonderful movie from the mid eighties.Very slick and talented dance moves with an interesting cast,soundtrack and storyline.
Even their looks are synchronized! 🤩🤩

Questo è uno dei balletti più belli che abbia visto in vita mia ❤️
très beaux souvenirs !!!!pas une ride depuis 1986 🙏👍💙
Two amazing dancers and an amazing routine. And underrated too unfortunately
Hines was very, very good, but Misha was supernatural. Extra.
I think they BOTH were amazing, just totally different styles merged which is the beauty of it.
Just like sal n pepper shakers, who does not like to watch them shake❤️
One of my favorite movies...
Mischa is really only the best when dances alone; except when he danced and sinatra sang. a perfect mixture of italian stew and russian vodka!
They're both great dancers, but the classically trained one just shines ❤
Both are fantastic.But the grace and elegance of Baryshnikov has no match.
Was a good movie!!
Although they are both incredible, I don’t think Hines could do what Barry does. So much more intense training. But it was a pleasure to see these two icons together!
Barishnikov, le plus grand le meilleur danseur du monde... J'aurais adoré qu'il prenne la suite de Noureev à Paris..
Vous avez de la chance de l'avoir aux USA.🙏
April 2021... Greatness is greatness.... it never gets old.................
Now with the Two of these great dancers you got some magic
This is my favorite scene in the movie! I usually watch it again so I can watch each of these talented, sexy men!
If you really watch, you can see that though Baryshnikov could do this and do it well, it was not his "natural" dance form as it was for Hines. Hines' movements are loose and free, while the balletic control still comes through in Baryshnikov's and holds him back somewhat.
Awesome combination of smooth and grace
A thing of pure beauty!
There's a third dancer in the room. . . the camera operator.
When they filmed this these two men were the best in the world.
It's not usual to see a soft shoe & a ballet dancer on the same stage together.
I went to watch this at the theater just to see these two dance together.
Gregory died way to young.
I didn't even know he had cancer and then he was gone.
Broke my heart when he died. Such an amazingly gifted dancer and wonderful actor. Gone way too soon 💔 One is my favorite performances of him is as Sandman Williams in The Cotton Club. He does a tap sequence on steps that blew my mind.
@@melaniesharp397 I remember that dance sequence. It was great.
I also remember watching him & Sammy Davis jr. dance together.
Another great show
Love, love, love this!
I forgot how good this is!
Qué hermoso q baila este hombre por Dios, qué elegancia, fuerza en su técnica, se ven tan limpios sus movimientos
Best dancing I have ever seen.
Saw this movie years ago. Great dancin
First of all. I LOVE this dance sequence. I keep coming back to view it😎 However, you see a HUGE difference between 1:36-1:42. Mikhail is smooth and balanced. Hines is off balance and loses his footing before going into the next sequence. Mikhail is a far superior dancer to most dancers...even if he's doing tap😉 He is SO smooth!
Another way to make this point is to say, " ..he makes it look EASY!". True.....
brillant I so miss Gregory Hines
Masterly..what a movie and what dancing
Messy just isn't in the ballet vocabulary, is it? Baryshnikov always has clean lines.
Baryshnikov worlds best dancer hands down, full stop.
Sol de media noche! Gran película. Toda la música me gustó. Creo que ya no está ni en TH-cam. La vi como 10 veces y me gustaría volver a verla. Años sin verla.
Great movie, I love it!!
Nice foot tapping in synch with song 😉
