    there is a wonderful hope that good music never fades...

    @ProLifePat Před rokem +1

    TBTHWYD draws me in for two reasons:
    1) The synchronization and grace of two dancers who have just met each other, according to the story.
    2) The look of joy and peace on the face of both dancers.
    Cory & Eloise, you captured both of these factors, in the spirit of Kaye & Vera-Ellen
    Thank you!

  • @dudley5533
    @dudley5533 Před 2 lety +1

    Just one more comment: You two could have been understudies for Danny Kaye and Vera Ellen....easily!

  • @SSA71454

    A truly great remake of one of my most favorite dance scenes from a movie!

    • @mckenna8663
      @mckenna8663 Před 5 lety +4

      Just curious... (I LOVE dance scenes in movies - I also love the costumes design for them ... there is art in how a well designed hem of a dress "dances") ... which other dance scenes are your favorites? I'll tell you, one of my favorites is Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers "Pick Yourself Up - Dust Yourself off - Start All Over Again" from Swing Time. Again, sometimes I watch just the hem of the skirt. Movie dance segments have so many wonderful components...you can watch them over and over and find new things to love.

  • @reneemcivor3033

    I’m quite familiar with at least a majority of the fine singing and dancing of the beautiful musical numbers of yesteryear .
    This dance number was on the the best numbers I’ve ever seen .
    I rate it as high as any Astaire dance number I’ve seen . And that’s saying a lot .
    This particular number was positively breathtaking ! Wow

  • @bandgeekmike
    @bandgeekmike Před 8 lety +3

    YES!!!!! Three things I really liked: The backgrounds, the clothes (I always thought Danny Kaye's grey shoes didn't make sense and I loved the blue and white dress), and the use of light, especially the backlit section--it definitely made it seem more like real life, which it was.

  • @Capricornicated

    Thank you, thank you, thank you for this WONDERFUL tribute!! I've been in love with the movie White Christmas since I was a child (I'm 63!) and this dance segment has always been one of my top favorite scenes from the film. Thanks to the whole team for doing this for us and for making it public. One of the best uses of the internet I've seen in a long, long time. You actually brought tears to my eyes. And kudos to CZcams and their algorithms for showing it to me! God bless you all!

    @saran3214 Před 4 lety

    I love the original and was very leery of this version. But it was actually very good. I wondered how the twirling around the poles and the zip line parts were going to be done. But they were recreated beautifully. Even the flamengo dancing on the overturned boats was included. Very well and respectfully done. Danny and Vera would be pleased.

  • @TheTransatlanticExchange
    @TheTransatlanticExchange Před 7 lety +4

    Thank you so much for recreating one of my favourite scenes, from one of my favourite films. "White Christmas" is the family holiday classic that always has to be watched, often several times, every year. You did such a lovely job recreating and improvising this number by Danny Kaye and Vera-Ellen. You and your team were extremely clever to use the stair banister rails in place of the pulley. Please keep doing more of these - they don't make films like this anymore. Hopefully, "La La Land" represents the beginning of a return to the musical genre, which seems to come back during challenging times such as these. Fantastically well done!

  • @alamoman444

  • @mrswing
    @mrswing Před rokem

    Very very well done. You are definitely a much stronger dancer than Danny Kaye (who had to work SO hard to keep up with Vera-Ellen) so the number flows even better than in the original.
