  • THANK-YOU!!!

  • hi amalialovesicecream - very pleased you like it too! cheers

  • OhmyGod, was that Jonah Hill selling her loveletter? LOL. Seriously, she and this dance are so amazingly beautiful. Thank you for uploading it. Powell and Pressberger were visionaries of film!

  • hi nhmisnomer - glad you liked it too! she was amazingly beautiful - and you wonder how much bigger her impact would have been had it not been for fonteyn - no judgement. cheers

  • El partenaire de Moira Shearer en "The enchanted dragonfly" no es Oleg Briansky sino Edmond Audran, el entonces esposo de Ludmila Tcherina que falleció después de filmar "Los cuentos de Hoffman" en 1951 en un accidente automovilístico.

  • hola amaliaconturs, muchas gracias por la corrección - muy apreciada!

  • for everyone, this is thr translation of this interesting comment 'The partner of Moira Shearer in "The Enchanted Dragonfly" is not Oleg Bryansky but Edmond Audran, then Ludmila Tcherina husband who died after filming "The Tales of Hoffman" in 1951 in a car accident.'

  • @pediatrapaola - just noticed there was a new documentary (by Yelena Demikovsky) on oleg BRIANSKY - called 'Happy To Be So" - there's a trailer on You Tube called 'Trailer Happy To Be So' but nothing else whatsoever - very bad! PS - also a video of him teaching - '#2264D - A Class from "100 Lessons in Classical Ballet"'

  • @nickwallacesmith HE IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE STRONGEST DANCER OF HIS GENERATION AND PARTNERED ALL THE FEMALE STARS OF HIS TIME INCLUDED FONTEYN .AS USUAL A CRIME NEVER FILM HIM IN CLASSICS.

  • hi pediatrapaola - yes a great pity - the politics of the ballet world are so tricky and can go against talent, very sadly - unrecorded, ballet just evaporates with the morning mist
