It's so weird to watch people who are now very old, or maybe late, so it's weird to watch them dance... and it's wonderful. It shows the endlessness of life. sorry for getting philosophical :) and thanks for sharing this, it's a real treasure.

This seem to be the earliest filmed ballroom video. The difference in their dresses, in comparison to 1970's ballroom dresses is intriging.
