Fred Astaire - Easter Parade scene

[kamagib]

So many favorite moments in this, and of course Fred Astaire is The Man, but I LOVE how the 2nd partner nails her spot at 3:01-02. Fabulous. Go girl!

[PercyJacksonRox16]

Wow!!! This is awesome!!! We r doing this song for chorus at my school!

[halcyonacoustic]

HOW IS THIS ALL IN ONE TAKE I DON'T EVEN

[Beti1948]

In.cre.di.ble! That suit! Those shoes! Swoon.....

[Beti1948]

@soccerguy325 - That'd create some sort of critical mass and probably destroy the universe. Too much perfection in one body!

[V4Now]

Musicals really have gone down hill over the years :(

[mamadoenut]

@katagarbo - Dancing with the stars is so ghetto in comparison

[MLanei]

This was one dancing dude!! Wish I could've met him!

I was born 50 years too late.

5:00-6:00 BEST SLOWMO EVER

[marija971000]

2:06 love her dress .

i was born in wrong era ....love this song

[1Corin134]

@marija971000 Absolutely to everything you said here. My dad tells me I was born in the wrong era all the time.

[dcs93]

Can anyone explain to me how they did this slo-mo part and had it fast in the background, is this two scenes put together or what? amazing..

[stephenwodadancerfan]

@dcs93 i dont really know how they did it but i learned tht this is one of the very first films ever to us tht method

[soccerguy325]

Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly are probably the best dancers. Ever.

[dcs93]

@soccerguy325 I'd say unquestionably..

[soccerguy325]

@dcs93 I think that this is also my favourite Fred Astaire scene. Especially the slow motion part. I also love the drum scene of this movie at the beginning.

[soccerguy325]

If Fred Astaire was a female, I would like to see the dancing skills of Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire's child.

[sheenque]

Wow, amazing Fred Astaire!

[librarybob1958]

When you've said "ladies and gentlemen, in incomparable Fred Astaire," you've said it all.

[MartaBtrp]

My favorite start 2'45 minits in the video...the more jazzy...:)

[MartaBtrp]

[Twisttheawesome]

One take, motherfuckers.

[lesshairagain]

[KataGarbo]

I was born in the wrong era. This was dancing with the stars before there was Dancing With the Stars. ;-) 

[stirfrypep]

GENIUS dance and I love the costumes. Fred was amazing.

[thefranster14]

I love the dresses and the dancing!!!

[MariaMaria276]

Unicos e Irrepetibles....

[elecomob67whip]

Perfection personified ! The timing...to the minim. Well, it is Mr.Astaire.

[JubalCalif]

Heavens to Irving Berlin! My favorite number from "Easter Parade" and one of my fave Freddie Astaire numbers. THANKS so much for posting! It never fails to lift my spirits and make my heart sing...it even gives me those "happy feet"!!! You've MADE my day!!! :-)

[Angelmickey32]

Long live jazz music!!!!!

[195511SM]

I saw an interview with some gal that danced with both Gene Kelly and Fred....She spoke of the difference between their 2 styles. Gene's choreography was extremely athletic & she'd come home sore & bruised by the end of the day...whereas Fred's style was more graceful.......Two geniuses at any rate.

[chomsky88]

One of the best solos Fred ever did; and he's 49! The guy was a miracle.

[maryjuk]

Fred is just floating on air in this!!! I am still as mesmerized by it today as I was 25 years ago. The skill involved in one routine is incredible... and the colours are just so vibrant! What a buzz!!! Imagine seeing this live!!!

[astaire8]

FRED IS  JUST AMAZING....... THE VERY BEST EVER........

Thank you for this video...

[AmazingShoestring]

I love this. The pioneering and creative use of slo-mo makes it so much more amazing!
