I find it hilarious that getting lost is an [intentional] feature of this hotel's design. Stayed here and explored the hotel enough times that I learned the general layout. But I definitely remember feeling perplexed in that underground parking tunnel the first time. And struggling to even find the lobby.

I don't care if she can sing or not, Ruby Keeler sure looks good in her underwear.

Good to see you are still alive and kicking Sir

💖💖💖💖

There's a reason I've always loved Ruby Keeler. The films of the 1930's are my favorites. Thanks for posting this.

Сид Чарисс была самая красивая и стильная балерина в мире. Просто богиня 😊

Have to watch it once more ! It's such a laff!

What a hoot! So witty!

Not only Fred and Ginger could dance!

Where can I get hold of the Warner Archive Collection?

Was there really Dick Powell singing?

This chemistry between actors is rare. Dick and Ruby had it.

Now I want to play Dizzy.

Hi there, would it be possible for a link to pack, as I would really like to add this to my original xbox, thank you

I STILL dream about Ruby Keeler ❤

I used to use this to get into town when I was in Denary student residences and then later Mercury Point and there was never any thing open in there i guess the rent was way too high and also an almost complete lack of foot fall can’t have helped I think most people just used it as a cut through to get in to town if they had dropped the rent and tried to attract some niche shops like bar gate did (I miss the bargate centre) they might have a bit more business.

DID HE SAID GAY WHEN THEY START THE SONG!

🇲🇽💗

Wow, never heard of Paul Draper before ... he was amazing!

THANKS 10MILL UPLOADER!!!!!

I watched this video almost 30 years ago on BBC and recently I've stayed at this hotel and I've found more postmodern aspects of this hotel. It is a four star hotel with its four star price, but when you go to your room it's a one star room with broken shower, dirty linens and AC located almost in your bed. It makes you dislocated from reality thinking "is this really Bonaventure Hotel or Motel 6?" Someone should go and ask BBC Open University to post the original video with better quality.

When I was in my fist yet the only shop open was the music shop the in my second year it was totally dear we still used it as a cut through until the fully lapsed it and eventually it was demolished 😊

Great job! It was a pleasure!

😅🎉

I used to work in the nearby Technical College in St Mary Street. Passed though this place hundreds of times through the years, as it was the easiest way to get to the town centre - walk along St Mary Street past the church and Central Hall, through the underpass and it took you right to the rear entrance of the shopping centre. Many many times I walked to the town precinct to the bookships etc and back in my lunch hour.

Gallo brought me here

Powell had a great voice. To think he chucked it in the 40s and became a successful dramatic actor and film and television producer, which is what I knew him as when I was growing up. I was well into my 20s before I ever saw one of his musicals.

Love the music and dancing but in those high-heeled shoes I'd wind up in the ER

7:43-11:22 tap dance break

Not gonna lie I look so much better than than west quay

A singer, Ruby definitely was not !

I had no idea Powell was such a crooner!

The Bonaventure was fantastic!There was a great Japanese restaurant where I took my date who was a double for Sean Young in Bladerunner.But,when I got to L.A. in 1982,I was staying at a dive hotel near the Greyhound station where a guy got murdered in the lobby on the third night I was there.I`d go up to the Bonaventure and hang out in there,often writing songs in those gondola shaped seats while colorful Mariachis walked around on the main floor and played some great guitar!However the best event I went to there was the Beatlefest and I bought a Beatle t-shirt.Man,that place was something else!

The best days in the 90s here bring them back. Everything was fun and simple : (

Paul Draper as the featured tap dancer is just amazing, and to think that this film from 1936 was made early on in Draper's tap dance development. He obviously created the choreography, which is stellar both as tap dancing and as storytelling. I'll pick out his double pullbacks at about 10:30, which he is performing so cleanly and expertly (on on his left side!) while Ruby Keeler is performing them on her right side and also releasing her right foot prior to each pull back. With technique like that she'd have a tough time reversing to the left side, like Paul. Also, just after at about 10:45, Paul starts into a step shuffle hop shuffle crossing pattern that I learned from him in 1979 when I studied with him at the American Dance Machine in NYC. Definitely one of his signature moves. This clip surely reveals Draper's talent and unique approach to tap dancing. If only he would have enjoyed his Hollywood experience...think of what wonderful tap dances he could have created!

I accidentally wondered into The Bonaventure via a sky bridge while exploring Los Angeles as a teenager and thought I was in a dream. It is to this day the most breathtaking architectural experience I have ever had.

Wtf is happening at 4:47:16????

*Si se ve que había buenas pieles !!!*!*

Everything's so GENUINE! THE MUSIC, CLOTHING, THE SCENERY...

imagine how many sprained ankles filming that

Is it possible to get this pack anywhere , looks brilliant

Charming man montalban was

I never knew this side of the man. I only know him for his wonderful acting. And sadly I have no knowledge of Cyd Charisse at all.

Everything in those old musicals was class. The sets, costumes, charisma. They had it all! It was about detail, and creating life, as art.

I'm in love with Ruby Keeler 🤩

Wasn't this knocked down a few years ago they took a while to knock it down mind and they havent turned it into anything its all rubble and still boarded up my dad use to be mates with the guy from the newsagents downstairs we always use to park in the car park for the football those were the days
