    Both talented and handsome men. Does anyone else love watching classic musical movies, or is it just me?

  • @islandbirdw

    Fred is a bit more refined and Gene was one the most athletic dancers ever. Seeing them dance side by side is interesting

    You can't say one was better then the other, they were just the best there ever will be. I enjoyed this so much felt joy and smiled through the whole thing.

    I saw this on TV when I was a little girl in the '70s, and ever since then, I have wished that someday I would get to see it again. I thought it was so funny. I tried describing it to all the adults and they didn't know what I was talking about. I always KNEW someday I would see it again. 50 years later, here we are! Love these two guys!!

    These two certainly became the most famous screen dancers - Astaire for his seemingly effortless grace, Kelly for his muscular athleticism - but I think there were other dancers who were as good. Donald O'Connor comes to mind, especially in his sequences with Kelly in Singin' in the Rain.

    Oh if there could have been a movie including the Nicholas brothers, Fred and Gene! The four tapping power houses...it'd be epic. I'll settle for this, Stormy Weather and the dance-off from the movie 'Tap'

    I would never say one was better than the other. They are both phenomenal, with their own styles. Astaire seemed to defy gravity and float above the ground, and Kelly seemed to push against the earth athletically, almost daring it to hold him. One was apples; the other oranges. Both delicious, but very different, indeed.

    The two greatest dancers in movie history did ONE number together and how lucky are we that we can see them together in their prime doing what they did best, DANCE!

    Enjoying That's Entertainment in 1974 when I was 15 made me fall in love with the MGM musicals, and specially with those 1-derful dancers, Kelly, Astaire , Donald O'Connor, Ann Miller, Eleanor Powell, Ray Bolger, Dan Dailey, Cyd Charisse, Vera-Ellen, Judy Garland, Mickey Rooney, Debbie Reynolds, June Allyson, and some who were singers or actors like Peter Lawford, Sinatra, Gable, Joan Crawford had to dance too, it was great fun !!!

  • @guitargirl4himify

    My eyes always go to Gene Kelly in dance routines. His personality really shines through in his dance style.

  • @jayonnaj18

    Both dancers were grrreat, but as for myself, Fred Astaire was MAGNIFICENT and had soul in his dancing moves and feet!!! He was my favorite of the two----I just loved to see Fred go!!!
