The Pirate (1948 - 3/13 -

So talented, so handsome, so hot. Watching this makes me happy!

does anybody know how he did the cigarette scene? was it really lit?

love this scene...and he's incredibly hot! But...couldn't he at least finish the sentence?!!? :D

This number is stunning. All the different setups: the women in the square, the balconies, the cigarette trick- good god!! I think the gazebo dance with the 'barber poles' is one of the 3 best tings Kelly ever did on film- and this is coming from a guy in his 40's!!

And couldn't you see Carol Haney as Louisa (the blonde) and Cyd Charisse as the brunette (in the white hat)?

Technically he was 36 when this came out- this came out in 48 and he was born in 1912 (same year the titanic sunk- which is just an odd thought!) It doesn't make his talent any less amazing. He was just the most amazing dancer- love him so!

Oh- sorry. I was referring to myself- I'm a 47 year old lover of these great old dance films!!

oh my gosh! only gene kelly can pull off that kissing move wiht the cigaratte! only him! man he was hot

oh talk about anything, i'd go to extremes to get him in my arms but alas he is gone. gene kelly is so wonderful! so talented. singer and dancer. why are all the good men dead?! -cries

I was born in a wrong time!

All the hot men, came from THAT time!
Clark Gable, Mel Ferrer and Gene Kelly!

I SOOOOOO agree with you. they sure dont make the men now as hot as the men in the golden age. *sigh* it really sucks.
