Evolution of Dance in Film/TV

This is a montage I made of a bunch of movies and a couple TV shows where dancing is prominent. For one of my classes, I chose to write a research paper on the evolution of the purpose of dance in the visual arts, and this montage is to support my presentation. The song is Bolero from Moulin Rouge.

The first clip is from Broadway Melody of 1936, not 1929. Sorry for the mistake!

Also 1980 - 2000. Glad you did not include Glee! LoL! Wished you did not include any TV show futhermore Reality TV shows...... Didn't bother too much but I really want to see the summarized version of 1937 - 1960! Because that's the best era for Musicals and there will not be other era that astounding! Not even close! Favorited your video anyway! Hope you don't take any offense! Have a nice day!

@ConfusedSponge Glad you enjoyed it, and no offense taken at all! I put this together in a day for a presentation for class and I remember not being able to find very many clips of films with dance featured prominently, and so that's why there's a big gap. I wish I had the original file of this so I could re-edit it because I know of so many more things I could have included nowadays. :(

[stefelj]

the first one is from the Broadway melody of 1936

[TheatrePhunk]

@stefelj Oh crap, you're right! D: Can't fix it now but I'll make a note of it in the description. Thanks for pointing it out!

[AngelEsterhazy]

Good job! Interesting!

[TheatrePhunk]

Thank you!!

[ConfusedSponge]

@TheatrePhunk Okay. Maybe someday you'll do the ultimate presentation!

[ConfusedSponge]

@stefelj I know. Just a little flaw though. I wanted to say it but changed my mind. I said to myself, " Wait a minute, Eleanor Powell wasn't in The Broadway Melody of 1929 but was in one of the version in 1930s. There you have it!

[ConfusedSponge]

Like it! But wished you didn't skip 193 7- 1960! Why? Good video nonetheless.
