Phenomenal.....

Well... you know how I love dancing and I ran across this performance with Fred Astaire and Elenanor Powell that was recorded in one unedited shot in 1940. It is brilliant. It is said that after this performance Fred Astaire never wanted to be paired with her again because she stole a bit of his dancing thunder. I think they are both phenomenal. Notice that Eleanor Powell is completely dressed with a dress below her knees. I love the innocence, civility and grace. Watch the whole thing...it gets better as it plays.I just love the good old days (even though I didn't even exist yet).

That's some serious talent, I love how she looks like she just finished teaching primary or something and just busted out with some sweet skills :)
