Are you kidding me? This couple is the quintessential, epitome of style and grace.. I absolutely love them, they entertained and exuded the spirit of dance!
Athleticism and grace! I reran that bit several times to see if Fred was holding her hand. He might have given her a start but Ginger landed that leap flat all by herself!
One take except for the jump up the stairs where you can see that the camera angle changed and the dance has to be stopped to accomplish this. It also allowed them to get that jump just right.
The most beautiful dancers in the most wonderful time for movies that included dancing talent in great productions. Long before my time but so incredibly talented people.
Fred and Ginger dancing together are truly phenomenal. They fit so well together. Ginger’s dress is a beautiful elegant classic which would look as good today. I just love the way it flows when she dances.
My grandfather wrote songs in the 20’s and 30’s -some are american classics -and he said they liked writing for Astaire because of his diction- you could hear every word clearly.
@@LarsCarlsen-or6ky I recall reading somewhere that Gershwin preferred Astaire over other singers simply because the timing that made Fred a talented dancer made him so great with song, too.
BRAVO!!! Isn't it amazing - this movie is almost ninety years old and Ginger's gown and shoes are hardly any different than the ones they make today. Classic design!
@@starababa1985 Some years ago, I had a small antiques business. One of the things I liked to sell was old costume jewelry. I remember selling several of those old dress clips.
OMG... this is so beautiful ❤️Even their dance is so emotional. There's no doubt in me that Mr Astaire and Mrs Rogers were and still are the best dancing couple of all time ❤️♥️❤️
This is how to film a dance routine, one camera in long shot. No swooping around, no swapping angkes and no cutting the feet off. Perfect dancing, perfect camerawork.
87 años tiene esta película y ahora nadie baila tan bien y con tanta elegancia como Ginger y Fred,y que mujer tan hermosa y con un aspecto tan moderno y super elegante,las actrices de ahora y artistas en general no le llegan ni a la suela de los zapatos a Ginger y a todas las de su época.
It is not how perfect this one dance,or that one.The chemistry between them is clearly visible.Mr. Astaire is really amazing and no one compares to him.And Ms.Rogers had feeling and grace and they looked so amazing together.This chemistry to him had no other film partner in a similar way.I love them.And it doesn't matter how bad or sad I'm feeling or how terrible my day was,when I see them dancing I feel immediately better
She did it in high heals !! The perfection of Fred Astaire is amazing. I kept wondering how many practices and takes it took to make this perfection look so easy.
And that ladies and gentlemen is pure elegance …..and romantic dancing ….I went to se all Fed Astaire .Gene Kelly.and Donald O’Conner films .I started dancing when I was four and stopped when I was 64 …What a pity that you never see it now.
Exquisite dancing. Who could ever forget the ten movies they made together? Yet the average amount of dance time in the movies is just eleven minutes. Months of practice went into choreographing and rehearsing by Fred and Hermès Pan, who said he was Ginger when he danced with Fred and Fred when he danced with Ginger. Will we ever see the likes of this perfection again?
There have been great dancers that had more raw athleticism, ok... Nicolas brothers, Gene Kelly for example. But for pure grace, precision, and other-worldly honed beauty of execution no one will ever touch Fred. ❤
Ginger in her 6 inch heels just being so smooth. Just amazing. I watch so many of these choreographed routines and it's still quite remarkable to see how easy she makes it look.
Every time it Fred and ginger , her comments about her high heels comes up. Cyd Charisse and Rita Hayworth never downplayed their partners. And they were great with Fred
I watch these dance scenes over and over. What beauty!
Are you kidding me? This couple is the quintessential, epitome of style and grace.. I absolutely love them, they entertained and exuded the spirit of dance!
❤❤
Not in my life time has any one surpassed this, I'm 90!
Oh, my! Was there ever anything more lovely than those two dancing?!
No
Música Sublime y ellos meravillosos
Nothing could ever come close. Perfection.❤❤❤❤❤
A fantasy of elegance. It makes me sigh wistfully with how beautiful it is. I don’t say that very often 😊
Yes!
There is such a thing as perfection. Fred and Ginger together.
Did you see that jump on the stairs!!! With heels on!!!! 😲🤯🤯🤯 AMAZING!!!! 😄😄😄😄
Athleticism and grace! I reran that bit several times to see if Fred was holding her hand. He might have given her a start but Ginger landed that leap flat all by herself!
One take. Absolutely beautiful performance. Watching Fred and Ginger dance is simply mesmerizing.
One take except for the jump up the stairs where you can see that the camera angle changed and the dance has to be stopped to accomplish this. It also allowed them to get that jump just right.
The most beautiful dancers in the most wonderful time for movies that included dancing talent in great productions. Long before my time but so incredibly talented people.
They say seeing is believing, but this is hard to believe. This dancing is pure artwork.
Not to mention the costumes
You should attend a ballet performance sometime.
Poetry in motion. There will never be another dance couple like this.
Chills with the first notes of "Smoke." Ginger and Fred with us forever thanks to film.
Favolosi
Fred and Ginger dancing together are truly phenomenal. They fit so well together.
Ginger’s dress is a beautiful elegant classic which would look as good today. I just love the way it flows when she dances.
How effortlessly they float across the dance floor.
This is the first time I have seen this. Brings tears to my eyes. Great music and poetry in motion. Those movies were sooo good.
These two were perfect. Class and style
What a class act they were so much better than today's dances bring back glamour and romance ❤
He was a perfectionist
Someone said "He gave her class and she gave him sex appeal."
@@maggiesmith856 Katherine Hepburn, I believe.
Don't think this era will ever come round again. Glad I enjoyed it in it's time. They were great!
So elegant and priceless!
Who could hold a candle to them these days. They were simply fabulous.
A few moments of beauty, grace, and elegance. Thank you, for posting this! 😊
Pure art , wonderful, what ever happened.
Absolutely love Fred and ginger.
I grew up on them
No other dance team measures up to Fred and Ginger. Love them.
Fred always said that he couldn't sing. Ha! What?! I have always adored his singing and Gingers....they were just wonderful together.
Many great composers wanted Fred to sing their songs...
My grandfather wrote songs in the 20’s and 30’s -some are american classics -and he said they liked writing for Astaire because of his diction- you could hear every word clearly.
@@LarsCarlsen-or6ky Indeed!
@@watchingover3592 Wow...It's great to know that about a family member, their talents and such. I bet that he was wonderful at his craft!
@@LarsCarlsen-or6ky
I recall reading somewhere that Gershwin preferred Astaire over other singers simply because the timing that made Fred a talented dancer made him so great with song, too.
The female fashion of this period was among the most spectacular of human history
Magic!!Thank you so much for sharing this treasure!!!or rather Those Treasures!!!They created eternal Beauty!
It was lovely to watch perfection
Such perfection, beauty andf exquisite talent given for our viewing, even to this day some of us realize what a blessing it is watching
This was my grandfather’s favorite song… He was born in 1907.
Áq
Never understood how Fred and Ginger never won top awards 😢😢😢, so awesome to watch as a child and rewatch as an adult.... simply superb 🎉🎉
BRAVO!!! Isn't it amazing - this movie is almost ninety years old and Ginger's gown and shoes are hardly any different than the ones they make today. Classic design!
That lozenge brooch adds everything to her dress. Costume jewelry from this era, such as dress clips, were amazing.
@@starababa1985 Some years ago, I had a small antiques business. One of the things I liked to sell was old costume jewelry. I remember selling several of those old dress clips.
And she has that tiny waist to do the gown full justice!
And filmed in one take, so no room for anything other than perfection .
OMG... this is so beautiful ❤️Even their dance is so emotional. There's no doubt in me that Mr Astaire and Mrs Rogers were and still are the best dancing couple of all time ❤️♥️❤️
Truly amazing.
This is how to film a dance routine, one camera in long shot. No swooping around, no swapping angkes and no cutting the feet off.
Perfect dancing, perfect camerawork.
Yes, but it was Fred Astairs explicit will to have it filmed that way! So in a sense, he directed the camera work. And he knew what he wanted!
@jourwalis-8875 He knew what he was doing.

You are so right!
Amen!
Sí, señora. Tiene toda la razón.
Is there anything in movies or on stage as beautiful as this today? It's like they're weightless.
NOPE!!
❤️
We will never see these things again so sad
"they're" 🙂
@@G6JPG thank you. So much bad grammar is common
Such beauty and elegance! Absolutely dreamy!

Una sincronia.... ineguagliabile. Troppo bravi!!!
So intriguing they seem to have an invisible string between their hearts as they danced.
"Intense love, rendered tenderly, in movement and touch."
"Dashingly joyful, and unsurpassed."
Non ho parole!
Grazia, leggerezza, agilità ritmo...e volteggiare con i tacchi a spillo poi....
Meravigliosi,senza tempo.
They dance with such an ease.💃
ABSOLUTELY amazing
❤ it's so nice to see 👀 these two wonderful moments on TH-cam 😊I always loved watching these movies 😊
Pure class .
They were absolutely beautiful dancing
Wonderful dancing 😻 pure class !! ❤.
She did it in high heals !! The perfection of Fred Astaire is amazing. I kept wondering how many practices and takes it took to make this perfection look so easy.
Heels
many many hours of rehearsals, although some would have been done with Hermes Pan
Ginger said they would rehearse over and over till her feet bled - she said she never complained .
@@watchingover3592 Fred said all of his other dance partners would cry over the many hours of rehearsal and takes etc, all except Ginger
Fred did all the heavy lifting. He swung her around beautifully
Pure joy. Magic!
And that ladies and gentlemen is pure elegance …..and romantic dancing ….I went to se all Fed Astaire .Gene Kelly.and Donald O’Conner films .I started dancing when I was four and stopped when I was 64 …What a pity that you never see it now.
The man is so graceful and downright fun to watch! Astaire has had no real rivals.
Que perfeição !!!
You don't want to know the amount of practice that went into this. Astaire was a notorious perfectionist! 😊
Che perfezione e che poesia! Stupendi!❤❤
Such exquisite dancing; pure and simple 👏👏👏👏
Oh how I idolized Fred Astaire growing up and he had no better partner than Ginger Rogers..wish I were Ginger❤
Sempre grandiosi...questi erano ballerini!!!
Poetry in motion incredible thank you
They are a joy to behold.
I love seeing and hearing this ❤ !!!
Une pure merveille d'élégance et de fluidité... ❤❤

Divine coupledanving and singing,Thank you
The best!!!! And in one take
"Memorable, arresting, and celebratory."
"From above... heaven descends."
L’elegance de Fred Astaire et de Ginger Rogers me donne tant de joie !
There have been great dancers that had more raw athleticism, ok... Nicolas brothers, Gene Kelly for example.
But for pure grace, precision, and other-worldly honed beauty of execution no one will ever touch Fred. ❤
Ah cannot get enough of Fred and Ginger. Pure class! Even though Fred had large hands, he positioned them beautifully.
una delle cose più eleganti di sempre! due divinità greche.
😊Absolutely gorgeous and southing of spirit!
Magnifique !
Simplesmente MARAVILHOSO!
Very beautiful.
Maravilloso!!

She jumped 3 steps in heels. In heels! Damn.
So do other female dancers. Ginger just wanted to draw attention to herself. This comment comes up every time he dances with her.
Köszönöm szépen a feltöltést ❤ imádom a tánc tudásukat. Zseniális!
The syncopation was marvelous. Bravo 👏🏿
