The Girl on the Magazine Cover - Easter Parade (1948)

[verkaforever]

Love the magazine cover sequence. This was set in the 1910s I believe, but, amazingly, nearly all the magazines featured still exist today.

Plus, this tune will become a favorite of mine of Irving Berlin's, and will add to the charming collection of gay tunes from the 1890s -1910s that I yearn to discover ! Thank you for posting

This scene just sends my heart into an esctacy of thrills as I unabashedly love and lament over such elegance and gaity that is absent from shows of our modern times. I know that each era has its ups and downs but I can never help feeling that there was some sense of wonderful in those musical numbers that can never be seen again. Though it is cynical to admit, you can never reproduce something as fresh as it was when it was new, or in its heyday. And I simply fawn over Ann Miller's feather fan.

A while ago I was asking everyone where that song came from and I even searched you tube at the time,however I am very happy to have stumbled unto it.I think the song is beautiful and my the girls in those days were just beautiful,I love the way it portrays all the different subjects and the man who sings has a fantastic voice.The old films are unquestionably the best.

Ann Miller, my favorite hoofer. Class act all around and one of my favorite movie stars.

I´ve tryed to sing the 2º verse, but I couldn´t. Can you tell me which are the notes? I mean, write here the minutes of the video when the music that corresponds to the 2º verse is played.

A total steal from Irving Berlin's much better A Pretty Girl is Like a Melody

@jacobsimon A total steal from Irving Berlin by Irving Berlin. He didn't do too badly ripping himself off 29 years after and probably for better money.

I just can't get over the red girl's dress- it is so flowing.

[lenaweeparka]

@pillowcase97 That dress & fan have got to be among anybody's top 10 dance costumes ever. Ann Miller in it is a blazing standout in a phenomenally well-dressed film.

I love Judy's hairdo as it matches her beautiful green dress we see in this clip. I thnk Easter Parade best depicts the glamor of Judy Garland. The film ought to be digitally

re-mastered. Or has it been re-mastered yet and commercially available?

Richard Beavers is one of the finest singers I've ever heard. I wish I hear more of him.

[InfiniteStage]

I love how Astaire goes from sitting and just floats right into the dance *sigh*

[aqu1r3]

i love ann miller's dress and the choreography :D

[No1KCfan6]

hey, when did she switch from high heels to flats?!

[No1KCfan6]

that was lovely. i have watched it almost 10 times in a row so far!

[Powder686]

Anns dress is gorgeous too though, it floats like a cloud. I have always coveted it!!!

[Operalover12002]

The wedding dress looks really beautiful. And so do those worn for the covers of

Cosmopolitan, Good Housekeeping, and McCall's. Women today wear short skrits, which I oppose to as I feel they should wear long ones.
