She was ballerina of Ballet, Queen of tapping and one of the best ballerinas of the Golden Age of Broadway!!! With all my respects to Ginger, other of the best. After cames some very good Ballerinas: Debbie Reynolds, Cid Charisse, Leslie Caron, Shirley Machine, and so on.

Rita Hayworth, too. She was already a professional dancer, like her father, before beginning her acting career. Technically Rita was better than Ginger and she had a lot of charisma, but not everything is technical, because the dancers are actors in motion. The important thing is the chemistry and what Ginger and Fred conveyed together. Like you, I think that Ginger and Fred were the best dancers when they danced together; they were unique. Ginger and Fred floated. Rita Hayworth and Fred would be in second place and then all the other dancers. No one can forget Ginger and Fred, the best dance couple from the golden age of musicals in Hollywood.

Can't sing can't act can dance a little is what they told Fred, Ginger did everything Fred did but in high heels, and 80 years later they still captivate an audience.

Awesome! What a fantastic performance. Has there anybody been just as half as good as Fred and Ginger? No!

Hmm. Did i miss the part where she's dancing "backwards"? She pretty much seemed to do the same moves he did. Over the years, i've watched several dances they did and saw the same. Except for ballroom dances, where each sometimes dance backwards because it's the only way to not run into the walls or other dancers. "In high heels" though, yeah, that's tough. Though i've never understood why some women choose to harm themselves wearing those torture devices.

I could cry. I never get tired of watching this video. True story: some little girls in a dance troupe came into our restaurant. They were about eight or nine. I asked him if they could guess what my favorite dance scene was. I warned them that it was old long before any of us were born and showed them this and they asked me if it was from the 80s😊

Jeez! That step over the dance floor fencing! I love Strictly Come Dancing in the UK…the pros are phenomenal in what they do and teach. But here, this is just on another planet!

Magic. Part of that Magic, as Ginger Rogers explained, beside the well known hard work from Fred and Ginger, was, that she was just as ambitious 'to get it right', as he was.

Apparently Ginger Rogers was very near to quit, because Fred was such a damn, ruthless perfectionist and the eons it took to do the whole routine in one take was almost to much for her. The result looks so fantastic, though.

Wonderful! The television channels would do well to replay these wonderful films that true cinema lovers miss. These comedies exude the good humor and beauty of an era that has sadly disappeared. Cinema can revive these immense talents! ARTE TV, you know what you have to do...
