I Am Watching Daddy Longlegs

[tinkerbell23]

First time I have watched an older musical..... I always planned to just didnt know where to start!!!!

My god.... the style!!!!!! I just love it so much!!

Really enjoying it! Xx

mmm... Astaire 56, Caron 24, it's always looked a little bit odd to me. The dancing's good, though. They did have style in those days. Have you seen any of the older ones Astaire did with Ginger Rogers? They're fabulous.

[tinkerbell23]

No none of them JNO!!

I missed the start.. and I have to say I did wonder about the age I was going to have a google & read into it.

The style is to die for & dancing! Xx

Check out Top Hat from 1935. It's fabulous!

I can'y that I've seen it and I'm not a fan of musicals, but whilst channel hopping some of the dance stuff really is quite remarkable of yester, yesteryear.

Very impressive film for it’s time. Choreography spot on.

YouTube has things like this. Very dated but impressive moves.

awe that is great when you watch something and transport ones mind to actually being there at the time. When Men were so sophisticated and women so graceful.
