So how do you like George's dancing. I'm glad we met and that I could give you something new to look at. Try his Movies Channel and watch him do the Bolero. th-cam.com/channels/ThnWwV7GvnG9Z_cLzL5R0Q.html
I was today years old when I discovered George Raft was also a dancer! I only remember him in gangster films like Scarface. Glad I came across this channel.
Raft was amazing and I am enjoying rediscovering him again! Have a bio of him that I bought in 1968 in high school! Seeing him in full costume is a treat...love how he snubbed out that cig before starting the dance!!!
Translation to English: "Rumba" Thank you for the revival, dance, music and great artists of the cinema, 1939 / whom I can see again. Thank you very much. Nie ma za co. Jeśli chcesz, możesz obejrzeć cały film na innym kanale George'a Raft'a th-cam.com/channels/ChkoRKEV8E9Adj_jUng07g.html
Not really a friend gave me this one. You have to check out places where you can buy them and ask questions. When I am stuck I re-edit mine as best as possible. It can be tedious and a long process but necessary for me.
@@marganamaurer It is sporadic not a definite thing. I always help others when I can I guess it just goes around. BTW I have the whole movie of Rumba on my other YT Channel for George Raft maybe you would like to see it? It's been there for 2 yrs plus more of George's movies. Here's the link to his channel th-cam.com/channels/ThnWwV7GvnG9Z_cLzL5R0Q.html and a direct link to the movie th-cam.com/video/ySSvvwhb-zM/w-d-xo.html
@@lovinraftqueenofnite7708 Good to know. I added your upload of Rumba to my George Raft Films playlist. Already had many of yours on it so that's one more. :)
His toosh is amazing! :-) I would love to see his legs. Nice body for a white boy. The lady is curveless. Someone as voluptuous as May West should have been his dance partner. I only saw George Raft act in gangster roles in the movies until I recently discovered he could dance. He's a Classic!
Raft was a natural athlete. He was a boxer in his youth. He his a sinuous quality in his dancing. As far as the woman, I think she’s perfect in this dance. Her lithe body is perfect for this dance sequence. If Mae West or a type like her had been used it would have turned into a farce.
Sorry but I am a dancer and this is a Rumba done by George Raft choreography for this movie. Try this link for the difference in the rhythm the Rumba has a faster beat than the Samba. George is dancing to the Rumba beat th-cam.com/video/Y7qTtjQ5veo/w-d-xo.html
Cagney mainly tapped danced. Cagney didn't Rumba or do the Bolero. Even Cagney said he liked George's dancing better than his own. If you don't like Raft why did you bother to watch?😆
Raft was a professional dancer before he got into movies. He could do it all including tap dancing. And no one could do the Tango like George. His ballroom dancing was non pareil. Watch Fred Astaire and you will see the same dance moves. George was the best at what he did plus he had sex appeal which is something Astaire and Kelly lacked.
i appreciate meeting you and coming across this information.

I couldn't believe it myself. He is always a gangster to me. He looks like valentino here but wo valentine's smoldering sensuality
@@nenabunena ou said it.
Wow🔥i am in love after watching him do the carioca
Wait until you see him do the "Bolero", wow.
Raft was amazing and I am enjoying rediscovering him again! Have a bio of him that I bought in 1968 in high school! Seeing him in full costume is a treat...love how he snubbed out that cig before starting the dance!!!
Join my Facebook group for him and see him a lot more. :-)
I too enjoy him immensely.
What's the name of the bio book?
Oo George how you MOVE those hips
By the way, I have it on good authority that he moved every other part of his body just as well. Ask Carole Lombard for one. LOL
I have read that when asked who the best lover in Hollywood was, the unanimous reply was, George Raft and I believe it. He was sex on a stick.

Ella buenisima
OMG could George move those hips! Would love to buy such a clear copy of Rumba. Any suggestions?

@@lovinraftqueenofnite7708 You are very lucky to have friends like that.

Carole Lombard at the table in the beginning.
Raft can dance.
He sure could.

Good as George is i much prefere Fred and Ginger dancing to THEIR CARIOCA 👍
Movie name ?!
Rumba!
It's not a rhumba, it's a samba.

Cagney was an even better dancer

@@lovinraftqueenofnite7708 love all the classic hoofers
Sorry, Raft was a mediocre dance, at best! He was wise to switch to gangster roles.
Do you really think anyone who has seen George Raft dancing believes your remark? Try it somewhere else. Mr. Sour Grapes.😅

@@maureenlumino3906 Gene Kelly had a body and sex appeal. I must admit though, I do crush on George Raft, he had sex appeal in spades. Sigh...
