      Speaking of elegance and class, Vera Ellen is nowhere to be seen here. She was one of MGM's big dancing stars at MGM at this time.

    Same year Agnes Moorhead passed away in 1974. I saw her in 1949 for 25 anniversary MGM banquet. How cool.

      The 1974 event was for the premiere of the movie That's Entertainment, and was held on May 17, 1974. Agnes was still alive but in poor health. She died a month later on April 30.

    Strange that Vera Ellen is nowhere to be seen. She was a big MGM star at this time having just completed "On the Town" with Gene Kelly and about to do "Three Little Words" with Fred Astaire. Was she not invited?

    • @Dory8
      @Dory8 Před měsícem +1

      @jackjules7552 She withdrew from the public eye in the late 1960s and 1970s+. No one really knows why. Yes, she lost a baby to SIDS and that is traumatic enough, but she still attended dance classes. Anyway, Frank Sinatra isn't there either. Nor was Leslie Caron or Lena Horne or Lana Turner, Van Johnson, Mickey Rooney, Ann Miller, Jane Powell, Lucille Ball, and Katharine Hepburn, in the 1974 reunion.
