Hope you guys get a kick out of it as well...it always lifts my spirits.
That. Was. AWESOME!!!!
She really was a stunner.
Ironic to your post, my 11 year is watching it with me and asks “if you can go back in time, when would you go?”
Forget Rita Hayworth (not really)...did you see gorgeous Gene Kelly!? :-D
As my 92 year old mother says, the greatest generation wasn’t just the greatest, it was also the most clean cut and gentlemanly.
Nice, but just imagine how Madonna and LadyGaga would do this song? (/s)
When the stars were REAL stars not the phony bunch foisted on us nowadays!
What a pleasure. She was a beauty and Astaire, well, he was fabulous!
That was great...Thanks for posting!

Great post... Thank You !
Wow that was great
That was such fun to watch. So nice to NOT see crotch grabbing, bare boobs and wardrobe “mishaps”.
A welcome break from all other stuff.
I read somewhere that Rita Hayworth was thrilling when she simply walked across a room.
It was said that she radiated energy just walking, that she had a kind of “bounce” that was unique.
There was a time when the liberal Democrats were on the verge of extinction, then the RINO's purged the Reaganites out of the party and installed the Bushes as their royal family.
I always liked those old song-and-dance movies. Old movies used to be the Saturday and Sunday afternoon venues on the 3 broadcast networks.
One of my favorites is Gene Kelly’s Singing in the Rain:

And Kurt Browning did an excellent tribute ice skating routine to Singing in the Rain:

Ginger Rogers was very good. But Rita Hayworth was the best. She was truly poetry in motion.
That was beautiful... Thanks!
In all fairness, she was the cream of the crop, driven to dance from a very early age, and one of the few who survived the ruthless and hated studio boss Harry Cohn. Fred Astaire was also very tough to work with as he was a perfectionist, calling for endless takes in dance routines until they were perfect. But that’s what made their movies so amazing.
Fate turned on her when she developed early onset Alzheimer’s in the early 1960s, which she suffered with for 20 years before it killed her at age 68.
Rita was generally not known as a great actress or dancer....just cheesecake. VERY underrated!
Nice, when women had talent and didn’t have to show their whence they came at every other shot.
I am sick of today’s talent (if you call it that), all they are are productions, without fireworks and crotches shots they are nothing.
