Compare their head to body ratio. Women at this time were smaller than today

Does anyone know if there is actually original footage anywhere of the can can being performed in the 19th c. early 20th?

[ObsoleteOddity]

@BreezesofConey yes, I've uploaded a very early clip

[Stoclet]

Massine's choreography is absolutely up to date and modern. It's a fantastic work !

And it's from 1938 !!!! I love Massine!

I agree 110% with betty clogger, the thrill of those days has gone by todays standards 

[fIofne]

Is Moscelyne Larkin in this?

[Gizmoenut]

хочу выебать этих шлюх

[bettyclogger]

Wonderful. A lesson to all modern choreographers, dancers, and costumiers. Cheeky, naughty and non-stop, and such a marvellous change from the general modern outfit of tights, a black leotard, with some material thrown round the waste to act a skirt. Oh, wish someone would bring this version back to life - untouched.

@bettyclogger Never happen. I've seen modern versions...awful! This dance is naughty but nice. People today don't know what that means.

I remember dancing Can Can on pointe-now that is tricky!

[Gizmoenut]

It is tricky! I'm learning a dance like that right now to this music D:

[ballerinainatutu]

I just performed this in my ballet summer intensive! How scandalous?!

[Stoclet]

Again and again it's adorable !

Massine is just a genius !

[Stoclet]

It's absolutely Beautiful !!

I've always loved Offenbach's Gaité Parisienne and this ballet is amazing !

How can I buy this film ?

Thanks for posting it, vaimusic !!
