@HuggiMa Look up the Nicholas Brothers and the Berry Brothers to see where breakdancing comes from. ;-)

@blackimpressions Um, Norma Miller was born in 1919, so she was 20 or 21 when they filmed this. She joined Whitey's Lindy Hoppers when she was 16.

@clake10000 The movie's actually not that good, but this scene makes up for it.

@stdepi Frankie Manning (the dancer in the overalls) was considered the father of Lindy Hop and died not too long ago in 2009 right before his 95th Birthday. Every year for his birthday, there was a large celebration with Lindy Hop dancers from all over the world who would come dance in honor of him, and every birthday they would surround him in a circle for a song, and he would dance with as many women as how many years old he was. Thank you, Frankie Manning, for giving us such a wonderful gift
