I've come to a conclusion today...

...and that is there is nothing wrong with old Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire movies.
They seem lame on the surface, but when it comes to entertainment - they're hard to beat.
These cats have more style than I could ever aspire to.

no sir - no dancing today, moving pictures, calm-am-it-tea, unnecessary posts, appropriate song selections, full frontal nerdity

Agreed! I wish guys now knew how to dance like that. I am a proud owner of Brigadoon, and watch it regularly. I wish I was Cyd Charisse and had a dress like the one she's wearing in my icon.

P.S. That's Mr. Kelly with her.

Alas, dancing is not my forte - but a boy can imagine.

Different art, but for my sake. teamrodent August 28 2009, 20:09:46 UTC
I also like the Burns & Allen movies. They were with Astaire in A Damsel In Distress.

It seems so silly now, but it's a rather idealized world, and not a bad one I think.

YES. Classic films are the best!

I'm usually reasonably dapper, but I figured it might help this post.
