Man, I wish I could dance like her! Anne Miller is just beastly, and Miss Katherine Grayson? She's is the Queen of facial expressions - the comic relief to this scene!
I like the stage show much better then the movie, the movie cut too much, three whole production numbers! Too Darn Hot was meant to be Taming of the Shrew's intermission, it wasn't supposed to be an audition/preshow peice. That was what Another Openin, Another Show was for.
Ann Miller is a true American Classic. This lady can tap faster than a machine gun. This is one of my favorite numbers of hers, which in one of her later interviews said that "Kiss Me Kate" was her favorite movie of all-time. This was when Hollywood had a ton of talent.
Gosh, she is amazing! My mother used to receive compliments when she was a dancer than she was a teenage Ann Miller, so she HAD to be good! Sadly, this was long enough ago that I haven't seen any of it. Oh well.
Both of those wonderful ladies have inspired me to dance. :)
Flawless. What a presence! Stuff like this makes my heart sing. I hope there's an afterlife, so that Ann Miller can be in a place where she just keeps tappin' away!
back then, you had to sing, dance, act, and have a personality. they had stage, radio, film and television to contend with. no celebrity these days can hold a candle to any celebrity from the 30's to the 60's. i say the 60's, because thats when tv took over and people stopped going to the theater, and movies and listened less to radio. i'm older and remember enjoying all those mediums. now, its only about looks. no talent involved, just packaging. its sad
I just watched this movie, and this song got stuck in my head. I loved it! Especially at 1:18 - 1:21. That, and I love tap numbers where they go crazy! It makes me wanna start dancing too! haha
people still have that talent, there just isn't the demand for it in the main stream. Musical films are barely made anymore, and when they are, they are cast with actors and actresses whose name is widely recognised, rather than the trained, specialist skills that the likes of Ann Miller, Bob Fosse, Russ Tamblyn, Fred Astaire... it's a shame really.
She was about the most desirable and vivacious creature ever to appear on the screen, and yet, as far as I can remember, she was never the star. Perhaps her producers thought that that would be too intense an experience for male cinemagoers!
I'm a girl, but I think I can tell what you mean. Especially 2:55 - 3:17. That was probably a little intense for the guys, especially since it was originally in 3D! haha
This is one of my favorite scenes that Ann Miller does when she dances. That and when she's doing the dances on the actual show Kiss Me Kate. The part where she is wearing the medival clothes and she's wooing the guys.
Take a good look at that people. .now that is what I call SEXY!! I mean seriously, and not only is she beautiful. .she's talented. .she can sing, she can actually dance and she can act. Nothing like old Hollywood talent. Some of the actors and actresses these days need to take some notes. . .*sigh* this is so amazing!
This is amazing! as well as this being amazing it is also a record breaker, Ann Miller holds the world record for the fatest ever recorded tap sequence on film in this very clip!
They exist, but the old MGM that gave them an international stage to play on no longer does. Check out YouTube...there are some good young tappers out there.
Ann Miller was one of the best damn hoofers in the grand era of musicals. I grew up watching her movies and still get a kick out of watching her hoof and spin.
damn she's good and she's so charismatic. I've seen her on interviews and she seemed like a cool lady. I love all the MGM musical stars, song and dance men like Astaire and Kelly. Cyd Charrisse for ballet, Judy Garland for singing/acting and Ann Miller for tapping. I'm in my 20's and I will watch these old musicals because there is a spirit and talent in them we don't see in the films made today.
My family and I loved Ann Miller too!!! The woman was a DIVA in tap!!!! I watched TCM cable & Easter Parade earlier today and on a whim, researched Ann Miller w/in Google..read some websites and discovered this site in YouTube! Thanks! Just so you all can enjoy her, the commercial she did in 1970 was for Great American Soup & can be seen w/Google using Ann's name & Great American Soup. My brother & I still sing it! People, even in an ad, ANN was totally in charge! Enjoy!!!
in 1980 a girl was killed by a homeless man she got rapped n her throwt was cut put this on 5 different vids or she will appear in ur room and cut ur thorwt THIS IS REAL sorry i dont wanna risk it!!!!!
My grandfather said she left when she was about 14. Back then Seniors in high school were 16 years old. She left halfway during her Sophmore year. She was young for her class. Also, he has school newspapers that have articles about Ann Miller left for Hollywood. It's pretty interesting. Oh, if your wondering, she went to San Jacinto High, in Houston Texas.
I love the dancing on the furniture. It's just like a lot of the male black tap dancers of the time - the Nicholas Brothers, Tip, Tap & Toe, the Berry Brothers. This is great, great stuff. She had great footwork, and again, what a great spotter she was! Thanks.
Your right about the Nicholas Brothers. I remember they did a bit in one movie on a table and you would swear one or the other was going to go right off the edge and get killed but man they had such great talent and skill. Ann Miller was such a class act (unlike todays hollywood sluts) and she had so much talent....and legs that went on, and on and on...
Ann Miller was rated as Number Two dancer(next to Eleanor Powell), but nobody beat Ann Miller for her great looks and vocal presence, and her legs were the BEST. Of course, let's remember, too, Cyd Charisse....is it a coincidence that both great gals were born in Texas???
well ive never seen kiss me kate but i would love to see it. Tommy rall is a great dancer and i heard he was on it. so i hope to see it in the future! :)
Around 2:30 it sounds a little like her number Prehistoric Man in On the Town. Ann Miller is talent at it's best, check out how much control she has over her body at the end, who can walk and tap that smooth. GO ANN.
great to see this again. i adore her, i'm a choreographer and we shot an ad for rose's lime juice in about 1986 together. she was great fun... i was clearly a devoted fan and she very sweetly indulged me by teaching me steps from my favourite numbers etc. A remarkable lady and,as a dancer,greatly underrated. Mc
this is one of my favorite numbers from her. and of course her on the town number was the first i ever saw. i love her dress in that one. shes amazing, i only wish i could tap like(in my dreams, i know)
AM had no equal when it came to Broadway dancing like this! Amazing talented and disciplined she owned the fastest legs ever to walk or dance on a wodden floor!! What a competitor and always GRACEFUL!
I was privileged to cover for Miss Miller's quick-change dresser in the wings during the late 1980's West End production of 'Sugarbabes'. At her and her doctor's request we had an oxygen cylinder and mask available. Any comment about her age was taboo.
She tapped 92 triple time-steps a minute on a good night, and 90 on a bad night.
This women was sex on tap, just look at what she's wearing for christ sake! men must have went crazy for this woman, she was a far sexier than any other tapper of her era.
im 23.. and ive been watching musicals like these since i was 10.. its a shame that they dont make movies like this anymore.. and that my generation doesnt know what real talent is.
thanks for posting this.. hopefully more people will get turned on to anne miller or any other actor of the golden screen!
Wow!!! I'm half a century older (73) That means I was at the premiere of this film and of many others right in the heart of the musical era - Just imagin all the marvellous films I have enjoyed as a teenager!!!! (and that I am rediscovering now with channel TV and you tube!!!!)
I simply adore that woman. She was pure joy and happiness when she danced. Whenever I'm in a bad mood, all I have to do is watch Ann Miller doing a musical number and I'm in a good mood again. And she became a brassy old broad in her later years. She was the greatest. Love you, Ann!
Her and Eleanor Powell were the tops, I think Eleanor was a bit smoother plus she had great ballet moves. Never saw Ann display any ballet material but, like I said, they were the BEST.
Giving this number to Ann Miller in the movie was a good choice. This perfectly showcases Miller's singing and dancing talent and suits her ditzy, kooky portrayal of Lois Lane/ Bianca.
I first saw this musical in 1953 - in 3D. What a treat and what a cast!! Ann Miller was absolutely fantastic. No one will ever match this performance. Another dance number from that really made an impression - "From This Moment On". WOW describes it well.
Ann Miller was a very amazing lady, and so much fun too! I really miss her dearly, but she will always live on in the movies she made! This is one of my favorite dance scenes from "Kiss Me Kate."
Ann Miller was amazing. I remember seeing this as a kid and being amazed and now -- some 20 years later -- it still blows me away. Everything from about 2:30 on was just stunning.
i love how all of a sudden, the coffee table is just THERE haha. love ann though, amazing tapping, not my fave here though, but her characterization is amazing.
YAY! one my favorite movies! I remember watching this with my dad when i was little and i'd tap dance along to it while my dad pretended to ply one of the musicians! *sigh* good times! ^_^
Of course she's really tapping. But, in the old musicals, the dancers almost ALWAYS went into the foley studio during post-production and redubbed the tap sounds because it was nearly impossible to capture the sound well in the studio. Kelly and Astaire did it regularly, and Miller was no different. That doesn't mean she's not really tapping on camera.
There hasn't been as beautiful and multi-talented dancer since Ann. Seductive and glamour seemed to inspire her incredible movements as she tapped her way around this opening scene and into our hearts. Cheers, for Ann and this wonderful number she left for us to enjoy.
i really felt bad for everyone else in this movie, b/c this is the first number, and the whole rest of the movie just never gets close, except for 'from this moment on'. she is just the best thing that ever happened to a tap number
My 1st Annie Miller film!!! Oh my GOSH!!! I was totally bug eyed when I watched this! after that I went back to this same seen about 7 times just to watch this!!!
hehehe...same here.....Ive seen it hundreds of times and i still get goosebumps when shes on that table and that band starts to build up......gosh i get goosebumps even thinkin of it.....
Thanks for posting all these great vids of Ann. I think they're all classics. Our kids today should see these if they really have a passion for tap!!!
Scintillating, scrumptious, delicious, feminine and kick ass!

Ann Miller was amazing. I remember seeing this as a kid and being amazed and now -- some 20 years later -- it still blows me away. Everything from about 2:30 on was just stunning.

The reel projector must have been on an ice block, because Ms. Miller is sure one hot lady!

you can so tell shes not actually tapping here, the sound wouldnt be constant on different surfaces like it is
allie5991 4 years ago
Of course she's really tapping. But, in the old musicals, the dancers almost ALWAYS went into the foley studio during post-production and redubbed the tap sounds because it was nearly impossible to capture the sound well in the studio. Kelly and Astaire did it regularly, and Miller was no different. That doesn't mean she's not really tapping on camera.

There hasn't been as beautiful and multi-talented dancer since Ann. Seductive and glamour seemed to inspire her incredible movements as she tapped her way around this opening scene and into our hearts. Cheers, for Ann and this wonderful number she left for us to enjoy.

I always loved that number. Thank God my mom raised me on old movies.

i really felt bad for everyone else in this movie, b/c this is the first number, and the whole rest of the movie just never gets close, except for 'from this moment on'. she is just the best thing that ever happened to a tap number
