I looked at the first comment while watching the video and I was like, 'what?? Ruby Keeler? Where?' And then, the title card came up, "Black Bottom", zoomed in on the lady's face, she smiled into the camera and sure enough!😁 Love her!😚 She's here: 1:15 to 1:53 and in slow-motion at: 3:10 to 4:20 that and the Charleston are great fun to dance!😉
@@marthamydear5844 🤔Me too! I'd say, eh, mid twenties. I think the Black Bottom came out in 1926. Of course, the Charleston before that, again °I think°, in '23.💖
At 3:07 "Baby" Rose Marie ... by 1960s she costarred in the tv sitcom The Dick Van Dyke Show as part of a comedy writing team. At times she'd still sport a barrette bow in her now blonde high pageboy coiffure.

Yes, and I wonder when this film was made!

I was so excited to see Ruby Keeler. I wasn't expecting that! :)

That's a very young Ruby Keeler!
What a delight! And now I can Black Bottom to my heart's content.
They left out the part where you slap your tush while doing the side step. Hmmm....
So funny that the dance first came from watching the movements of a cow, stuck in mud ☺
You're right, bur her name was Ruby ;-) I'm fascinated :-)
A nickname for Broadway, named after all the lights from the marquees.
Does anyone know the piano music played throughout this?
Thanks!
It is fun ... especially pounded jauntily on an old piano.
Thought that Ann Pennington was the dancer that promoted these two dances...
Not much has changed in this regard.
What's the name of the song???
the 'great white way'?!
Broadway was named that after it was lighted for the first time by the bright light of electricity. It's been called that ever since.
That looks like Ruby Keeler
pretty women... cute dance.
That's Mrs. Al Jolson, or, Ruby Keeler.
LazlosPlane I caught that too.
