  • She can sing much better than the singer they dubbed her over with in other movies.

  • Your so right, maybe because she thought her voice wasn't developed enough. Who knows? :)

  • From which movie is this?

  • This clip is from Broadway Melody of 1940.

  • It was Louis B Mayer's call re dubbing.

  • @camflash08 back then you had to sing, dance, and act. She is just amazing!

  • why is it that artists from long time ago automatically know how to sing and dance? AMAZING! :D

  • She makes this look way too easy!!!!!

  • Eleanor Powell has actually inspired me to become a tap dancer, she's amazing!!!!!!

    Thankyou for uploading this video :) x

  • Amazing!

  • Looks like she's made of elastic! She was really a good performer.

  • Well, hallelujah! I THOUGHT this sounded "right"! It sure looks to me like she's bare-legged in this one. My feet whimper in sympathy!

  • EP did her own singing in this movie.

  • Thanks for this one. I, too find the dubbing irritating, although I think this particular one comes closest to E's own voice. Yes, this is one of the prettiest costumes she wore. I've always loved the novelty of when she danced in tails, but considering how terrific she looks in this, it's hard to see why anyone would think of dressing her in pants! Do I spy Deanna Durbin peeking out from behind Fred?
