Scroll down from the video, click ‘Show More’ and there, while you won’t find names of stars, you will find names of the films used. Off the top of my head do remember, Robert Cummings, Rita Hayworth, Judy Garland, Gene Kelly, Rock Hudson, Fred Astire, Shirley Temple, Ann Miller, June Allison, Frank Sinatra, John Travolda, Olivia Newton John; MEMORY FULL, unable to display more.
THANK YOU
I saw the Nicholas Brothers two or three times in that clip too.
They were always amazing.
...and Bob Hope, Jimmy Cagney, Ann Miller, Ann-Margret, Kevin Bacon, Donald O'Connor, Rita Moreno, Jennifer Beals, Cab Calloway, Sammy Davis Jr, Gwen Verdon, Mitzi Gaynor, Barry Manilow, Debbie Reynolds, Ginger Rogers, Bing Crosby, others... even saw Marlon Brando in an onlooker role...
As a poster noted upthread, the movies are listed, but you can't just follow them in order, since they insert different clips from a few movies here and there. You have to have wasted your life actually looking at old movies like I have. But the dancing makes me glad. The best dancers— Irish and blacks—are well represented...
