To me he is the PERFECT dancer. His technique in EVERY dance style is perfect. He is the reason I became a dancer. Masculine, strong, passionate, impeccable technique, incredible style & energy. Perfection!!!!

Baryschnikov's form IS perfection! My GOD his dance is divine. You can see the years of training and hard work to perfect his craft and although I adore Liza, she pales next to him. Not that she needs to be ashamed....... her performance is pure Broadway magic nonetheless. Baryschnikov is so gifted and talented but clearly disciplined and a perfectionist in his craft. Divine to watch!

Years ago, when "White Nights" was filmed, MB said he had to learn how to dance all over again; he had never done Modern/Jazz/Tap. He did it beautifully! The "pas de deux" he did with Gregory Hines was magnificent. Also coreographed, these 2 gents made their dance look totally spontaneous!
@barbj9785Ай бұрын
Two of the best dancers. Saw Baryshnikov dance the Prince in the Nutcracker on Christmas Day. Saw him again with the White Oaks Dance Project and was able to greet him/get autograph. No one has come near his perfection. And Liza, well, she was magnificent. Even her backup dancers couldnt perform like she did.
@Vancoin11 жыл бұрын
Two superb artists in their prime. Even though Liza could sing rings around Mikhail and he could dance rings around her that's not what happened here. Instead, each used their artistry to compliment the other, and in the process gave us a performance we're not likely to see the equal of anytime soon. Bravo!

Ray Bolger was one of my favorite singer/dancers when I was a kid. Once in Love with Amy is one of the greatest bits in film. I am stupefied though - Baryshnikov dances here an absolutely perfect Ray Bolger! He really is a genius and works his head off to do it. I’m totally gobsmacked!

All that drinking, drugs, smoking, and sex--and they were still able to get it together for this show ----aah the magic of youth! Dwight Hemion really knew how to produce a stunning TV special.

Liza is great film and greater Broadway given in her genes from both parents but mostly her mother Judy Garland. Baryshnikov is class and thousands of years of Russian artistic genius through his ballet yet modern American assimilation gives fire he thrives in. Both are wonderful. How I miss the old TV specials and star variety shows which brought all of the worlds great into our living rooms continually throughout the years.
