Have to give Van Johnson credit, very few folks who could match Kelly step by step like that.

These 5 minutes of film have influenced me, as a four year old girl who watched the film Brigadoon with her mum, like no other filmmaterial has ever influenced me before. I can't explain why, but when I was four there was nothing more inspirational as this was.
Yay for Gene Kelly and fake Scotsman!

@charliemctruth Hello, thank you for this insight. We are thinking of performing Brigadoon, and people (on Youtube) who are from Scotland, seem to explain how important it is to be accurate, if developing their accent, for stage, movies, etc. That is why I never try to sound like other cultures, because I would not want to cause offense. So, it sounds like you are saying, that Hollywood did this, to somewhat depict the accents, yet make it so people could understand them, Very wise, on your part

@SeattleLA The accents are Hollywood's version. As a Scotsman I can say, they are perfect for the times. A Glasgow accent of today would probably need subtitles for someone from the sunny climes of L.A.

Can someone please describe why the accents are bad? I am from USA- standard west coast accent, and I thought these accents were OK, but I heard that they are not good. And, how hard would it be for USA actors to learn a good Scottish accent?
I just love Gene Kelly... <3 <3 <3

Look how light Van Johnson moves! He keeps up with Kelly and looks like he's having fun doing it. Kay Kendall did that, too, in "Les Girls." Now, if only I could stomach the rest of this show.
