      The dance

      Watching the song in the rain and Astaire’s dance, I noticed Cyd Charisse, the dancer who plays the underworld woman in the dream dance. Several of her films seem to be based on ballet. I have never seen tap dance or other types. A question: Isn’t Hollywood golden age ballet incompatible with tap dancing?

      In Silver Christmas, the first dance performed by Vera-Ellen and Danny, it feels that it involves many kinds of dances: first of all, I feel that...

      I heard that it is a restored movie, and the restoration is very good, especially the restoration of color is not inferior to the current camera. At that time, all the movies were indoor mirrors! 1954 was the time when the United States began to develop! That social thriving has begun to show.

      Every time I watch the old songs of that era, I am fascinated by the graceful and restrained movements of the actresses. At that time, the face and skirt were too lickable, right? Want to take dance and etiquette classes? It's a good Christmas pastime, and the atmosphere is enough to sit by the...

    Evaluation action

    "White Christmas" is a holiday carnival film full of joy and humor. Bing Crosby and DavidDaniel Kaminski used their surprising performances to show off the plot of casual comedy dance. The film is also a standard theater film. The tunes in the film fluctuate, but these tunes are still fresh in the audience's memory. They are tunes that will be remembered every Christmas. The performances of the two actresses were seductive, but also a...
