Ginger Rogers - Charleston Scene from Roxie Hart (1942)

Its "The Charleston" by Peter ...someone lol forgot his last name...He wrote it I think in 1923?? Anyways I love Ginger omg shes my favorite...and the way she moves those legs!

What's the name of the song? Thanks!

I wonder who (exactly) invented the Charleston?

From what I discern, it originated in (and was named for) Charleston, South Carolina (NOT West Virginia).

According to pianist Bob Milne, James P. Johnson wrote it and he first played it in a barrel house near Charleston, South Carolina, and the audience started asking them to play it over and over, and one sailor that was in the crowd was an incredible dancer and he made up the dance moves on the spot. By the time Johnson left town, that tune became known as "Charleston," which was then changed to "The Charleston."

Ginger Rogers is unreal: what a talent and what legs. She was fantastic.
Thanks for the posting.

all in heels :P

I love how she just staggers off at the end.

That is a great dress! I love how the skirting moves!

Ths is Ginger Rogers? Doesn't seem to look much like her.
