I've always been a fan of Betty Grable.....she and Gwen Verdon are great....wish we could see this kind of talent again. Thanks!!

Choreography by the legendary Jack Cole ("created" Marilyn's famous Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend number, etc)
-
Who is the other dancer, besides Gwen?
-
love how Grable insured her legs for a MILLION DOLLARS. wow

@songplugger I am a fan of Grable's but if there are similarities to MM its probably because Jack Cole choreographed both stars while they were at 20th. If you watch early Mitzi Gaynor films you'll see the same type of choreography. MM became a huge star precisely because she was not copying anyone. She was unique to the 50's and the successor to Grable. MM was the last of the the 20 Century Fox blondes. They tried to manufacture Sheree North and Mansfield but the public didn't buy them .

This is absolutely divine! Funny and Hollywood at its best!

@dmarie9. Thanks for uploading this Betty Grable dance routine which i think is the hottest i have ever seen her in. I have seen this film once or twice before but it is very rarely ever aired in the UK which is a pity because it is a very entertaining movie deserving of more air time. Finally, Betty was famous for having her legs insured for a million dollars but the legendary Gwen Verdon & her dance partner had some terrific hot legs on display here, didn't they?.

Don¨t you know who was a choreographer of this show?

I quite agree!
What a shame! I love Betty, but i'ts hard to see the legendary Gwen Verdon playing second fiddle to her! Thanks again for this.

I have to respectfully disagree with you MA. Betty is just as much as a legend as Gwen. This vehicle just happened to be hers.

THANK YOU!!! Betty's HOTTEST number ever. And all those 'Marilyn' tid-bits were filmed when MM was still a Fox starlet.
Who was copying who? =)

This is one of my favorite Grable numbers and films. It is a shame that she was considered 'old' and 'fat' when this film came out. This is a film that I fear will never make it to DVD and it is a shame. It is one of her best films for showcasing her dancing ability!
