Suzanne Charny really should become iconic in this world, and in history, because of this scene. The pony tail (which killed her scalp), the Little Black Dress, the white opera gloves, the shoes (which were too small for her feet, BTW), the indifference in her expression and, of course, her flawlessness and absolute mastery at Fosse's choreography. She is sheer brilliance here. And she deserves more recognition, IMHO. What do all y'all think?
It was the late 60s, everything was "Groovy baby"! And Mod fashion was in and being cool, this was probably an exaggerated look for this scene, pretty wild but just awesome choreagraphy from Bob Fosse!
@@ljm792 that's kind of an unfair comment. Was loosely based on his life. It only showed him popping prescription pills. It never showed anything about him using drugs before the 70's. The only thing they made clear that he did a lot of was work, sex, cigarettes, and booze
@@Nikki_the_G Because now it's a metaphor for most. * And that is a metaphor that's going to be part of humanity forever... if it disappears that means your culture has become repressive. But for the most part you're just another creative use of language to describe a feeling.
Suzanne Charney, a Leading Dancer, is representing a pure sensuality. Goddess of coolness perfectly channelling surreal eccentricity of Fosse’s choreographic. Her long pony tail, little black dress and white gloves plus largely expressionless face and the sheer quirkiness of movement.
The great Bob Fosse and Shirley Maclaine! Impeccable! Love this... choreography and artistry. Carefully curated scenes in just one stage.. hard to do that nowadays. Imagine without CGI.
It's just totally brilliant.....fantastic to watch, must have been a nightmare to dance ( all Fosse's choreography had to be so spot on.) All credit to the amazing dancers led by the beautiful Suzanne Charney. I love watching this. Thanks for posting this segment of the film.😊
I am obsessed with the male dancer in the red waistcoat, on the right during the aloof. I can’t take my eyes off of him the entire time, his whole demeanour, facial expression and the way he moves his body is just fantastic. You just get such a good sense of who he is and I love it, it’s hard to put into words properly. I’d love to know who he is and see him in more things. That walk with the cigarette and the bobbing head is my favourite part of this whole routine, it says so much with so little
@@skullbleu8166 Funny that his surname is _vest_ -- _waistcoat_ in British English -- since that is what *Rose* used to distinguish him from the rest. 😂 Anyway, he stood out for me, too. Very expressive in face and body. And handsome, to boot. 😍
Bud Vest was a big tall man who in his age and time and style (those sideburns!) could still be considered pretty darn gorgeous. Sadly, he died early, aged 53.
The book of the stage musical is a downer at the end. Well I guess so are Fiddler on the Roof. Cabaret and Funny Girl. I wonder if the discouraging story had something to do with its lackluster performance. Plus the amazing high art dances are not what bring in the masses that make movies profitable.
This is one of the greatest dance sets that's ever been done - Fosse was brilliant. Suzanne's first dance is the best of the three. The movie Sweet Charity is better than one might think with a bunch of great dance numbers. Of course, this is an incredible cultural period piece and movie, but then you can also appreciate it for the 60's genre that it is - OK, it is a parody and comedy you know, although still has its sad parts but Charity gets over it...Watch it!
Ever sice I stumbled upon this video about a week ago, Ive been coming back to this, watching it at least once a day. Something about this style of dance is so satisfying to watch. Now I just need to find a site to watch the full film.😅
They're fabulous - more subtle than the women, but just as perfect. Actually everyone in the shot is -- even the waiter looks choreographed right down to those expressive eyebrows.
ABSOLUTELY! I wish I could find out who the exceptionally tall dancer is to the viewers right of Suzanne Charny, as he is particularly awesome (and, for the era, quite the hottie...)
Edit: whoops, when I first read this I missed your words "to the viewers right," sorry. @@stephenlagan8569 Not sure if you mean to Suzanne's right or the viewer's right, so I'll name both guys in the trio: the one with the darker, curlier hair is Lee Roy Reams, who is still alive and working! Or at least his most recent credit on IMDB is from 2018. The guy with the lighter, straighter hair is the inimitable Bud Vest (aka Buddy Vest), who passed away in 1995. Both had successful Broadway careers and Reams was also active in TV and became a director. Incidentally, the two Black dancers in this scene are also famous names. The woman (in the curly silver headgear) is Chelsea Brown, who had a successful stage career and also a great run on Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In. The man, who is featured in a solo turn in the last part of this video, is none other than the one and only Ben Vereen. This was his film debut. Before that, he was already doing well on Broadway, and even understudied for Sammy Davis Jr.
This number is just SO Fosse. I can't believe how awesome it is! That guy in the red vest (on our right at 2:50) pulls my focus; he is amazingly flawless!!!
I keep watching this lately and I have to say Fosse always cast the best dancers. I have to tear my eyes away from the ones placed in front and look at those in the back and even they are absolutely fantastic. I mean sometimes you can watch these shows or movies and see someone and just go "yeah I see why they put you way in the back." Someone's slightly off or less energetic, or their flow is just slightly off. But, as I said, you don't see that. Even supporting dancers are just perfection and in near perfect sync with moves I know are hard as heck to sync up.
There is the contemporary failure of the movie to account for. The musical is true to its Fellini origins and is often cynical and ironic about its age. Thee is strong element of parody here and elsewhere. Too soon, perhaps. when it was released? Or the public wanted something more celebratory and optimistic?
2:42 That pose right there is just so freaking COOL The entire thing is amazing but damn, there's something megic about that moment for me for some reason. So powerful
I would not be able to complete those dance moves without laughing. Everyone did a great job of maintaining their composure while doing the dance moves.
Ben Vereen!!! He's awesome! I never get tired of watching the dance scene, each one was excellent, With Bob Fosse being the choreographer, I bet they worked really hard to achieve this scene!! Amazing... I was 4 years old when this movie came out (I didn't know about it till years later).. We had this sweet 15 year live with us, a foster kid, but my parents actually knew her and her family.. I remember she use to dress so cool, lots of eye makeup and big colorful earrings, she listened to her records all the time! She was a lot of fun to be around! 💖
God I love that 60s makeup . I love how they are all so thin, and the big eyes heavy lashes thing. The space age clothes. It couldnt be cooler. I swear though I thought that was Vanessa from Austin Powers for a min.
watched this sequence 5 times in two days, then watched Sweet Charity twice and STILL CANNOT GET TIRED OF IT!! doesn't happen with every film, specially today's.
I feel like there hasn’t been a decade as weird as the 60’s, like I would have thought (and love) that things should have gotten more and more weird with time, but they just didn’t 🤔 Maybe humanity reached peak weirdness and then it all went downhill from there?
ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО! ЧУДЕСНО! УМАПОМРАЧИТЕНО! Это действительно великое искусство! Я восхищен! Очарован и убит наповал! У меня просто нет слов!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Bob Fosse Choreography with Richardo Montelbaum and Shirley MacLaine in "Sweet Charity". Musical based on Federico Fellini's film "Nights of Cabiria". Having fun at the Pompeii Club.
This is the 1969 version of the "Ascot Gavotte" from "My Fair Lady". As utterly different as the two sequences are, they are both examples of dance-as-metaphor, illustrating the essence of their respective societies.
This could be a guilty secret. I love this. Its just so weird and wonderful. the poses are pure stereotypical 60's. Glad this was recommended. No idea why it was but glad it was
no way... this is all the uselss beatiful people, warhol parties had legitmate artist. this is just lookie-loos. its like the national enquire come to life...i still love it, but this is satire. If your an american consult your neartest brit or canadian to help u understand
Its so crazy how Fosse has influence pop culture and my life. This is the first time Ive ever seen this and I am so familiar with their dance, I think its because Ive subconsciously picked up on the Fosse references from various shows through out my childhood that I unknowlingly do the moves. So crazy.
Fabulously made! The hair and makeup is reminiscent of Diana Vreeland's reign in Vogue. The dazzling outfits! The signature vintage cancerous room due to the massive tobacco intake. And of course the mighty choreography of the one and only Bob Fosse!!! Pop Culture in 9mins.
Absolutely fantastically incredible - knockout design, photography, direction/choreography, editing, and performance! So, so watchable. And try leaning back like that without falling over. Don't know how they did it! And smoking definitely OK back then!
It forever amazes me that critics and audiences hated this movie upon its release. It has the best movie musical sequences of ANY film. This, the roof top dance, Rhythm of Life… no one has ever filmed production numbers better
"Wow, this place sure is crawling with celebrities. I'm the only person here I've never heard of."
Brilliant.
not really
Shirley Maclaine and some ultimate great dancers
Hi there yes really
Ricardo Montalban.
Fun little joke.
In my head this is exactly the way every day in the 60s was.
The very last year of the 60s, but only among the snobby well to do.
Suzanne Charny really should become iconic in this world, and in history, because of this scene.
The pony tail (which killed her scalp), the Little Black Dress, the white opera gloves, the shoes (which were too small for her feet, BTW), the indifference in her expression and, of course, her flawlessness and absolute mastery at Fosse's choreography.
She is sheer brilliance here. And she deserves more recognition, IMHO.
What do all y'all think?
I thought she was utterly mesmerising. Had my eyes squarely her whenever she was on screen.
Absolutely! She was amazing.
Could not agree more. She looks like she’s made of putty. Astonishing
Dancing for hours in shoes too small for your feet is next level torture omg
didn't know her name. cheers. absolutely incredible lady. Anne Reinking reminds me of her. Both stunning dancers and, well, stunning.
Have no idea how this got in my recommended vids and I have no idea what is going on, but it was definitely a blast to watch lol
You are not alone, I too have no clue how this got to me.
I totally agree
If you haven’t seen them yet, check out out the other group numbers from Sweet Charity - they are all a blast
There is a new iPhone commercial out that uses the music from this piece
Fosee/Verdon series is on now plus Star of Fox Network second season had an intro video probably influenced by this, directed by Lee Daniels
Suzanne Charney's dazzling opera gloves cured my asthma and paid my taxes.
Mom Cat22 Thank you for telling us the dancer’s name. She’s stunning. I bet she still looks good in her seventies.
And Ann Reinking looked just like her. Fosse certainly had a type.
Stunning indeed.
Odd to realize she is 77 by now
I kept expecting Austin Powers to appear any second.
Now, this is what my Fantasy Island fantasy would be like; AWESOME!!!
He did.. 5:09 the dude in the glasses.. Can't see the teeth to be 100% sure but I am pretty sure :D
Yeah, baby! Yeah!
Me too i thought I was the only one
It seems Austin Powers got a lot of inspiration from this movie, this scene in particular. Most of the men are dressed like him too.
So much pop culture stems from this one clip. Wow.
Its 4:00 am and I am still watching ....such incredible experience of the joy of talent and the gifted WOW!!!
Beyonce get me bodied video
YANAMization also seeing Ariana Grande’s high pony tail and outfits she wears looks like the lead dancer in the video.
The dance scene from "She's All That" is heavily inspired. Ariana's Problems video. JLo's Fashion Rocks performance
@@casper7319 I was looking for this comment because when I was watching this I was thinking oh my God the woman is just like Ariana Grande
Out of context this looks amazingly weird.
Yeah I just jumped into this with zero context and it's like a fever dream
Pearls before swine.
In context it's still amazingly weird.
It's supposed to be surreal.
lala la succeeded
This is so 60's that you don't even realize how batshit it is
I'm lost and I love it
I don't know what Bob Fosse was on when he made this but kudos him for perfectly recreating the experience of taking it.
Why do people today assume any great creativity is the result of drugs? Jesus.
@@Nikki_the_G Bob Fosse literally made a movie (All That Jazz) about his unhealthy dependance on drugs
It was the late 60s, everything was "Groovy baby"! And Mod fashion was in and being cool, this was probably an exaggerated look for this scene, pretty wild but just awesome choreagraphy from Bob Fosse!

By the way, was she actually dating Mr.Fosse at the time?
Always wanted to know her name, thanks! We didn't have Google and IMDb back then. Still in love❤️
Isn't she amazing?
She enthralled me and before i knew her name i would show to friends and say "the Alanis Morrissette lookin' one!" Lol
Thanks for identifying her! She's amazing.
Spot on!!! She's mesmerising 😍 #girlcrush
The inspiration behind the Austin Powers movies surely!
Behind the theme tune - Austin Powers was a parody of James Bond and the 60s spy spoof movies such as Man from UNCLE.
The great Bob Fosse and Shirley Maclaine! Impeccable! Love this... choreography and artistry. Carefully curated scenes in just one stage.. hard to do that nowadays. Imagine without CGI.

The dancers have a saying “Fosse is painful.”
I get lumbar pain just watching this
And carpal tunnel
Tbh, if I could just pull off that slack armed, backward lean, I could die happy.
Almost no one adapts the whole dance move-for-move, probably to avoid concussions and back injuries. If I moved my head like that I'd be out cold.
He must have been!!!
Otherwise there wouldn't be such OUTSTANDING Performance!
Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal
Madonna - Justify My Love (The Girlie Show)
Beyonce - Get me Bodied
This is the world I want to live in!
-Who is it?
-It's meee
-Clear. Let's dance.

It’s the smoking choreography for me
I'm so happy to see the whole restaurant scene. Usually people only post the dance, but I like the costumes, hair and ambience as much as the dance.
The dance routine looks so incredibly easy but is exstremley difficult and strenuous on the back muscles
Sweet charity a $20 million flop but you can see its influence, around 50 years later.
True. Also true: the movie is, well, terrible
The book of the stage musical is a downer at the end. Well I guess so are Fiddler on the Roof. Cabaret and Funny Girl. I wonder if the discouraging story had something to do with its lackluster performance. Plus the amazing high art dances are not what bring in the masses that make movies profitable.
...that Fosse style; appears haphazard, but fiendishly difficult for dancers to get synchronized . Amazing.
👍
Not even remotely haphazard
I wonder if after endless rehearsals if the dancers had RSI in their wrists and necks.
@@auntt7856 I've always thought that dancers that worked with Fosse had standing appointments with chiropractors
You can see Fosse in every dancers single move, he has literally performed the routine in front of them to show them how it's done.
My favourite dance sequence of all time. Incredible choreography. Fosse was a genius.
i never get tired of watching this sequence
Ariana Grande vid brought me here..thanx for the ed Ari
God why dont they make movies like this anymore. I miss the quirky, camp kinda charm from old Hollywood
Could you please recommend me some other movies that you like?

I’ve watched this hundreds of times and it never ever gets tiresome.
It's ridiculous. Yet, I keep watching it over and over again. Can something be brilliant and ridiculous at the same time?
This choreography is fantastic! All the dancers were wonderful - it is great to see Suzanne Charney and Ben Vereen in their prime.❤
Mike myers must have created Austin Powers after watching this film! Yeah baby!
This is the most random, and 60’s thing I’ve ever seen.
Ever sice I stumbled upon this video about a week ago, Ive been coming back to this, watching it at least once a day. Something about this style of dance is so satisfying to watch. Now I just need to find a site to watch the full film.😅
NOT KIDDING- this is by FAR the BEST quality I've seen.. Truly makes a difference😁
This has to be one of the best movement sequences ever committed to film! Choreography, lighting and editing are so innovative.
Вы совершенно правы - новаторство 150%
Suzanne Charny is the lead dancer with the hair. She's terrific.
Can't never get enough of this. Bob Fosse was a genius. This is the insparation for Beyonce's "Got Me Body" video which I love because of this movie.
And also Ariana‘s Music video for focus
Also if you watch the OG Bring it on, the torros take inspiration from this film, but this scene pops up if you watch closely.
Actually, I don't think the guys get enough credit...could there have been a more perfect physical representation of snotty elitism?
They're fabulous - more subtle than the women, but just as perfect. Actually everyone in the shot is -- even the waiter looks choreographed right down to those expressive eyebrows.

Yeah, as a straight male I think he's gorgeous and hard not to watch. His shuffle just after 5:00 is my favorite bit.

frugs it
Very good point, everone really has to do a good job for this dance scene to specially work.
Everything in this seems like it's parodying the 60s.... however, the pure aestethic.
There is the contemporary failure of the movie to account for. The musical is true to its Fellini origins and is often cynical and ironic about its age. Thee is strong element of parody here and elsewhere. Too soon, perhaps. when it was released? Or the public wanted something more celebratory and optimistic?
this should have 10 billion views!
Wtf did I just watch and why couldn't I stop watching
60s private party with dance numbers.
It's a scene from the movie Sweet Charity. Starting Shirley Maclaine
You're waiting for something you understand to happen. It's a long wait.
Ummm..... found this by accident...... not disappointed 😀😀
Everything about this is ICONIC!!!!!
I wanna go to the club where people are dancing like this
Awesome footage ! Finally understand the Fosse fuss 👏👏👏
Can’t take my eyes off the lead dancer with the ponytail. I love her look and the way she dances in this vid
2:42
That pose right there is just so freaking COOL
The entire thing is amazing but damn, there's something megic about that moment for me for some reason. So powerful
The characters and ambience look surprisingly modern.
I watch this on almost a daily basis. It's sheer perfection.
I would not be able to complete those dance moves without laughing. Everyone did a great job of maintaining their composure while doing the dance moves.
Well you wouldn’t cause they are hard to dance.
Seriously we did his style for quite some time and I left every rehearsal and class SORE af
The Monty Python sketch Ministry of Silly Walks definitely comes to mind.
I'm still amazed at the exquisitely precise timing of the ensemble dancers - what a lot of rehearsing that must have taken!
Fosse was a major perfectionist.
Simply the height of 1960s sophistication and style...
Let's not forget to mention the music is infectious and brilliant
Ben Vereen!!! He's awesome! I never get tired of watching the dance scene, each one was excellent, With Bob Fosse being the choreographer, I bet they worked really hard to achieve this scene!! Amazing... I was 4 years old when this movie came out (I didn't know about it till years later).. We had this sweet 15 year live with us, a foster kid, but my parents actually knew her and her family.. I remember she use to dress so cool, lots of eye makeup and big colorful earrings, she listened to her records all the time! She was a lot of fun to be around! 💖
Господи!!!!!! ....пятьдесят лет назад, такого шедевра, немогло быть, или они из будущего!!!!!!!!
God I love that 60s makeup . I love how they are all so thin, and the big eyes heavy lashes thing. The space age clothes. It couldnt be cooler. I swear though I thought that was Vanessa from Austin Powers for a min.
Don't forget it's 1969 This isn't the make up of the earlier 1960-1966 and certainly not regular ladies at work or home.
watched this sequence 5 times in two days, then watched Sweet Charity twice and STILL CANNOT GET TIRED OF IT!! doesn't happen with every film, specially today's.
i love the craziness of the hair and makeup which today is really celebrated in pop culture
Phantastisch! Überaus beeindruckende Tanzszenen, äußerst ansprechende Ausstattung und Kostüme, schönes Bühnenbild....ein Meisterwerk!
I would LOVE to see rehearsal footage of this number!!!!
Watch fosse and verdon they recreate it
There's a glimpse of it here: czcams.com/video/XffYaszqIts/video.html
I feel like there hasn’t been a decade as weird as the 60’s, like I would have thought (and love) that things should have gotten more and more weird with time, but they just didn’t 🤔 Maybe humanity reached peak weirdness and then it all went downhill from there?
Lili yup
The lead male dancer in the red vest looks like a combo of Bobby Darin and Stephen Fry!Love this.My childhood was in this from this time!
Fosse was so amazing..........Just a genius!
You want to see more of his genius, watch "All That Jazz."
I have and I was high at the time so it really really blew my mind. It was a great film. Fosse was IT!
ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО! ЧУДЕСНО! УМАПОМРАЧИТЕНО! Это действительно великое искусство! Я восхищен! Очарован и убит наповал! У меня просто нет слов!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Classic Fosse. I forgot that Ben Vereen was one his featured dancers. Bravo. 😍
Wow this is a masterpiece
Ponytail girl nailed it 54 years before Wednesday dance. But not only she. Whole group is awesome.
Первые две минуты адски стильные..дальше еще круче..
All these dancers must have been so exhausted after filming this entire sequence
Why can't I stop watching this!? It's like a virus in my mind!
Great Bob Fosse Choreography with Richardo Montelbaum and Shirley MacLaine in "Sweet Charity". Musical based on Federico Fellini's film "Nights of Cabiria". Having fun at the Pompeii Club.
Brilliant dance. It's hard to believe they are gone.
BEN VEREEN AND SHIRLEY MacLAIN ARE STILL WITH US.
You can tell this is a Bob Fosse number!! Very much like from Liza with a Z !!!! Of course he directed it also !! Iconic moves!!!
@@MICHGO1 And Suzanne Charny, Miss Ponytail lead dancer.
Suzanne Charney is still alive at the age of 77. She was (and may still be) a sculptor as well as a dancer and actress.
This is the 1969 version of the "Ascot Gavotte" from "My Fair Lady". As utterly different as the two sequences are, they are both examples of dance-as-metaphor, illustrating the essence of their respective societies.
