A dance from the movie "Three little Words" (1950). In this scene: Fred Astaire, Red Skelton & Vera-Ellen.
Available on DVD.

Because of copyright I had to change the music track. Using audioswap I settled with Beethoven's "Für Elise" because it's also piano & about the same length as the clip.
Update:
Seems another user was able to upload the scene with original sound:

  • Further to my previous comment I thought the original music was called "I'll Follow my Secret Love" or something similar. I'm not arguing fredginger2009 but I was certain of that. Can anyone sort this out?

  • I think fredginger2009 is right.

    See the OST on Amazon & the Wikipedia article of "three little words"

  • Very nice fit of music to the dancing-both in tempo and in mood. I'm surprised that I like it, because the original music "Thinking of You" by Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby is one of my favorite songs by the those two.

  • Thank you. The original music is indeed very nice. I was really disappointed that it was not allowed due to copyright. Took me a while to find something suitable. I really wanted to post this little dance sequence because there was no footage from it in the theatrical trailer.

  • In my opinion this is one of the most perfect of all dance sequences. Their arms and legs are perfectly aligned the timing is faultless and Vera was probably the most graceful of all Fred's partners. Although Fred never let on I once heard that it was believed that Vera was Fred's favourite partner. Caught this clip ona film about MGM, it was introduced by Michail Barishnikov and I looked for it for years. Luckily I found it here on You Tube and thankfully downloaded it with the original music.
