Cole Porter´s Day and Night by Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers

Wow

[@slownoman]

Cole Porter was one of the best song writers who ever lived. Ever.

[@MsMimi49]

wow! now that was class at its finest,,, Fred, and ginger had class, style, sexiness, radiance uniqueness,such as no other act could ever have,,,,night and day,,,,

[@markberryhill2715]

That was the holy trifecta of music, song, and dance. This should be mandatory watching for music class.

[@rossharmonics]

I find myself watching the old films more and more and the new ones less and less. They have a lot to teach us.

[@horsluva0758]

me too and not only a lot to teach us, but there was class, modesty etc that is gone in today's society ...too sad :(

[@googlefan7409]

rossharmonics used to be a modern movie lover but after Fred and Ginger , I'm only a 30s and musical lover

[@barbaramcelhiney5934]

Amen😊

[@garywest8705]

When music was enjoyable to hear with talents singers and actors.

[@barbaramcelhiney5934]

Yes that most of us just want to live our lives in love and freedom.

[@donmigueldecuenca]

This scene is the most exquisite, perfect dance scene in all of film, set to one of the greatest songs by an American composer. I have treasured it for almost 60 years, since I first saw it as a child on TV.

[@pamela930]

Stunning. Fred and Ginger and a favorite Cole Porter song. Love it. ❤️ Wish we had more of this in today's world.

[@Rtmax45]

It's not just the fact that Ginger was beautiful, it's the fact that she was talented. A triple threat-dance, sing and act. And as far as Fred Astaire-a legend and one of a kind that can't be replaced

[@chanceibmny]

Fred Astaire might be able to dance on water, but watching Ginger Rogers dance, I keep waiting for her to float away she's so graceful. If only we had some way to bring back these kinds of movies and get rid of what we have now...

[@joeherald7319]

These two are a little before my time but thanks to KZbin I've been able to watch them. I don't know what it is but, when I watch these I feel a calm sweep over me. So much today seems crude and crass and the daily news is just kick in the gut after another. I know that life was tough in the 30's and I think the make believe beauty of this was one thing that helped those folks cope. Just like it does for me today.

[@JudgeJulieLit]

The core of the calm is the notion, which they amply demonstrate, that human beings can master their fates through persistence and skill.

[@melvinfields3078]

We live in a time of spiritual, moral and artistic decay. A collapsing Republic.

[@edepirescardosomaaa0175]

Tbm adorava assistír os filmes deles..... ficava assistindo até de madrugada sozinha .... gene Kelly Elvis Presley ... era muito lindo

[@karimalhassani3830]

Fred was Irvine Berlin's favourite singer because although his voice wasn't terrific he established each of these great songs as standards. His timing is immaculate.

[@richardgornalle4536]

Never get sick watching these two. Timeless.

[@Sarasguy]

Two people at the top of their game and showing us what real talent is. They are awe-inspiring.

[@paulfrith1815]

A classy lady a gentleman with all the moves a classic film never be forgotten

[@poetcomic1]

When she tries to get away the second time and he pulls her into his dancing embrace - I die from the gorgeousness of it.

[@heartofagreengirl]

I totally agree, Fred was the one who made them both practice so hard to make each dance perfect. He's amazing.

[@robertmcarthur1642]

It doesn't get any better than this. For those who are dismissive of the sound and the singing, you have to remember that in 1934 movie sound was still in its infancy. It was a wondrous thing to be able to hear anyone sing in a movie, not that Fred was that bad. Also, this was years before the advent of the electronically reorganized, over produced music that is prevalent today. The sound of Gay Divorcee is real. It is authentic. As far as the dancing goes, no one, and I mean no one, has surpassed Fred and Ginger. Superb!

[@crcanassr]

I used to watch Fred and Ginger films on TV when I was growing up in the 50th's. They were already oldies then. My Mom and Dad, having grown up in the 30th's, loved all these movies and it was a treat to watch the Saturday night TV program that featured all of them. Mom used to love Glen Miller and used to play the same LP over and over featuring his music. This was in El Salvador, Central America.

[@janicesmyth1713]

All the love songs ever written this is my favourite.

[@meaghan15]

I love how Astaire sings this. And, of course, the dance is fantastic!

[@lennycohenfan]

The most beautiful and sensuous dance in movie history. Thank you.

[@johnrowley8055]

The perfect dancing couple.never will be repeated

[@garyseraydarian461]

Greatest dancer of all time...Fred Astaire..........timing is perfect

[@KuueenKumi]

Fred and Ginger, Cyd and Gene. What a great couple of decades we had of amazing dancers. It's too bad the movie musical fell out of favor, I would watch any new movie musical made like they were in a heartbeat

[@kimballwhittington2463]

Movie musicals are still popular as they were back then. The only difference is that now they are in cartoon form.

[@patricemoran7469]

Fred was great with Cyd too.

[@Larsky1010]

Timelessly delightful! Never to be surpassed, or even equalled!

[@sjoes]

The best entertainer and even more brilliant with Rogers. The man sang like he danced and his dancing was flawless.

[@Elin48]

One of my all time favorite romantic songs.

[@retroboyrandell]

You cant beat the old ones,they live on and on and on i n now unfortunately the memories of the selected few - its cool to see including me i hasten to add lol still appreciate good music! long live Ginger and Fred!

[@jasonpmcneill]

3:32 - That kick she does is so graceful and beautiful.

[@JAfan3993]

Ginger just seems to absolutely melt into Fred when they're dancing! Aboslutely romantic and beautiful!

[@sandrakenney567]

Night and day beautiful musical .O her tiny waist. Pity they don't make musicals like these anymore. There will never be another Fred for his dancing techniques and Ginger for her elegance 🤗👠👠💫🎩👞👞💫🤗.Godbless them both AMEN

[@syncopeter]

This is what love is all about. Attraction, hate, distrust and everything in between. And whether it is sung too fast or not, I don't care. It simply is one of the very best dance scenes ever filmed. Every and I mean every later dancer or lady dancer can only bow to these two. They were, and still are, the very very best. I've never seen a couple that had such almost mental bond as Astaire and Rogers.

[@NinjatasticCookie]

I LOVE Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers!! When you're watching them it's hard to take your eyes off them because when you are looking at one, the other takes your eye! Seperately and together.Breathtaking.

[@wchumphries]

Cole Porter, Fred Astaire, & Ginger Rogers...who could ask for anything more.

[@weswolever7477]

Works for me.

[@horsluva0758]

no one :)

[@cards0486]

wchumphries Nothing is more perfect than Fred, Ginger and a Cole Porter song.

A classic gentlemen. An even classy lady. How it used to be before. How it is today what a shame. Take me back please

[@arlenesel]

It is great because Fred and Ginger are feeling the music. He applied perfectionism in every aspect of his performance with delicate refinement. That is why we love this so.

[@roslyndecanio81]

Fred DELIVERED a song with such heart and emotion and of course, his dancing was beyond superb and masterful! Ginger too most wonderful!

[@grayboy432004]

Great dancing and what great music. The lyrics are sooo sophisticated. Shows what a genius Porter was.

[@654zns]

One of the best classic movies ever. We need to have more films like this one.

[@CaseyLR16]

Nothing in the history of cinema compares, at least in my mind, to the grace, beauty and charm these two produced as a duo. I'll take any movie from the Golden Age of Cinema and watch it over anything made recently. God bless these two!

[@colleenmccoy6103]

No one has danced like these two ever. She said she danced til her feet were bleeding from all those hours dancing👠👠💃💃

[@rozbellantuono3977]

Grace, elegance and class. Beautiful.

[@VValkyrie]

This is my favorite Cole Porter song. Ginger & Fred provide the perfect visual. Both the lyrics and choreography are very "stimulating".

[@chilvari]

So beautiful, graceful and majestic

[@BLUEBELL258]

Love the music of Cole Porter, love Fred and Ginger. Just magical. Ginger looks beautiful. Thank for posting.

[@torilllundborn7899]

Many people struggled a lot with pouerty and unemployment...at those times...in those years...just THEN it had to be wonderful for them to see acting and dancing and romance...and such a beauty Hope they had a wonderful dream-nights

[@CurtisNadine]

I have this song in a music box! I LOVE THESE TWO!!

[@nicolettapasquini6614]

Film bellissimo e divertente con una coppia indimenticabile me lo guardo sempre in DVD ❤❤❤❤❤

[@milankuzminac6035]

Wonderful music and dance. Fred and Ginger are amazing artists.

[@pegasuscoco]

Her dress is amazing, like it's been made out of a cloud

[@amyfisher6380]

What a fantastic song this is. My parents liked to sing this to each other around the house when they were feeling playful. 😊

[@sambking]

Real talent, all the way around. Music, dancing, singing.

[@astaire8]

FRED AND GINGER - SIMPLY SENSATIONAL.. Thank you.............

[@patricialabbe1416]

They don't write 'em like that anymore. Beautiful poetry and smooth and romantic dancing. 🎶💜

[@dukemd69]

THIS....... is Dancing with the Stars.......so romantic an era. Thanks for these memories.

[@marucasar5805]

[@ORYGUNLADY]

No one could compete before or since..........they were IT

[@hollywilliam1010]

Don't know how many times I've seen this but the hairs on my arms still stand up and tingle when they really start dancing halfway in the clip ... . Fabulous x

[@51actual]

Kids...no, we will never see the likes of this again...and it is sad...truly...but we can still enjoy it as long as we want...it was old business when I was a kid....and it stands up. I wish they could have lived forever, Cole Porter, Fred Astaire, Ginger Rodgers...:>

[@Lorenesque]

I am so grateful to TCM and KZbin for making these wonderful early films from the 1920s and 1930s available for all of us to see. These films are my favorite over anything after 1940 with the exception of the works of a small handfull of directors, such as Anthony Minghella, David O. Russell, and David Lean.

[@richardscally694]

What a magnificent Era that was.

[@hollywilliam1010]

Exquisite ... the hairs on my arms prickle and stand up every time I watch this.

[@williewalker5051]

I like how Ginger lifts up her dress when she's really getting down and dancing. She's a class act

[@OLIVCHEN77]

over 80 years old, but sexy, stylish- a Jewel in Human Artistry

[@NuovoPiero]

The arrangement of the music at 2:33 ...... phenomenal !!!!

[@ladykws]

That dress -- wow! I wish I had that dress.

[@allisonyoung4285]

No matter how much I see this clip, I still say, Bravo and that won't be done again so take lessons.❤

[@emiliagiovinazzi]

Che gradevole eleganza di altri tempi. Bellissimi. La facilità con cui si muovono è spettacolare. Ciao altri tempi 👏👋

[@sinjin405]

Incredible music, singing and dance. I love watching Fred. He was a wonderful performer.

[@msknighttime]

I will always love Mr, Astaire. When he passed People magazine had a layout on him. I remember buying it and I still have it. I was a teen then.

[@remyblack2009]

This was when they made movies - the music the dancing - There will never be another Fred Astaire. Ginger Roger made a great partner.

[@drmmos]

Wonderful! Thanks for the upload...

With those big blue eyes I think I lot of guys were thinking about Ginger Rogers back in the day. What a cutie!

[@golusda2]

it's simply wonderful!!!

[@ltcolumbo9708]

I'm beginning to noticed how great Ginger Rogers... with zero training in singing, acting and dancing. Wished I had met her...will put flowers on her grave

[@suremate]

This is my favourite Porter song and the only version of it I want to hear.

[@papitoherrera]

The best couple of dancers ever... Thanks for posting this masterpice...

Amo esa epoca,es como si yo estuve en esps tiempo ,me da nostalgia,mi ser estraña vivir de Nuevo esa epoca

Exquisite

[@AvetissovGeorge]

un vrai chef d'oeuvre !

[@lesshairagain]

OMG 0:17 Ginger's eyes sent me to heaven ;~; It's hard for Fred to NOT get in the romantic mood when his lady looks at him like that.

[@foamulator]

I'd sell my soul to dance like him just one nite...

[@mcbdpb]

I love Cole Porters music-- this is my favorite song. I love The way Fred Astaire sings. !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@EmilyCragg]

I just love that dress! I'll take one!

[@rickos1915]

Elegance and class. Something sadly lacking in today's "entertainment."

[@jamesstuartbrice420]

What I like about Fred and Ginger is they never kissed. The dances were more romantic than any fake Hollywood romantic smooches. People do not realize what a great songwriter Cole Porter was, either.

[@valentinamaggie1253]

Bellissimi!! Due angeli che ballano su note incantate!

[@watergoddess9]

they move so fluidly, it always amazes me!! They could be floating :)

[@anafi34]

No time, no space. They fly in the enduring legend.

[@RaymondPTamm]

What a master piece. Thanks for sharing.

[@madamerotten]

This is so perfect! Even the plants are real.

[@user-mh9ib2nc7v]

Fred Astaire and Ginger Roger's - pure escapism.

[@jimlambert2921]

To be a man in 1933, I would be madly in love with Ginger!!!

[@edgardolopez1862]

I love them dancing THE CONTINENTAL, too.

[@diamondlotus3]

So elegant and nostalgic, thanks so much for posting and sharing!

[@angelnoreturrn]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@drwinkle101]

Of course I enjoy this great song and dance for its artistry, as you do; I was just having a moment of existential angst!
