    Fascinating choreography with a lot of emphasis on the arms and legs doing maneuvers close to the body with a lot of side snapping with the head..I really don't know how they do it ! Incredible number, orchestration, and shot composition. A real show stopper

    Bobby Rydell, the epitome of the early ‘60s “teen idol,” who parlayed that fame into a starring role opposite Ann-Margret in the 1963 film “Bye Bye Birdie,” died Tuesday April 5, 2022 at age 79. The cause of death was pneumonia. His death just days away from his 80th birthday (April 26, 2022) was confirmed by radio legend Jerry Blavat, Rydell’s longtime friend from the singer’s South Philadelphia stomping grounds. Bobby Rydell had 34 singles chart on the Billboard Hot 100, the most well-remembered of which include “Wild One,” which reached No. 2, and “Volare,” a No. 4 hit. Other top 10 songs included “Swingin’ School,” “The Cha-Cha-Cha.” His run of top 10 songs began with “We Got Love,” which reached No. 6 in 1959, and ended with “Forget Him” in 1964.

    I remember when people were boycotting in Washington and all over the place when Elvis Presley got drafted into the army it seems to me bye Bye Birdie was based on the fact that Elvis was drafted and Conrad Birdie played sexy singer and they have the clips of Frank Sinatra in Bye Bye Birdie which it actuality at first he reacting to Elvis like he did in real life initially like that ironically she met Elvis I think a couple of years later and they did Viva Las Vegas together and actually fell in love or had a romantic time. Together I think that is very ironic and Bye Bye Birdie made her famous

    Excuse I should have edited my former comment a little better but you get the gist my point is that in Bye Bye Birdie she's acting to think like he was a the sex symbol which was only a movie but later on in real life she met the real thing the real deal Elvis. This was fascinating

    Ann Margarette was only 20 years old when this film was made. She was not a trained dancer, so it is impressive to watch her dancing in this film as well as others. A lot of it is natural "shake". In fact, she was chosen for the part when Bye Bye Birdie director George Syndie saw her dancing the Twist with friends at the Sands Lounge in Las Vegas. Of course, to be 20 years old and hanging in the lounge of the Sands put you well into the cool crowd of the jet set in the 1960s. Chances are, though that Ann Margarette was a jaw dropping sensation even when partying with friends.

    imo...This is actually one of the best filmed musical numbers in movie history. The choreography is complex; the cinematography and camera pans are extremely challenging for the limited studio space they were confined to; the orchestration builds in its intensity; and the staging is almost mathematical in its precision. (And, of course, having Ann-Margaret in tight hot pink pants certainly doesn't hurt!)
