Eleanor Powell dancing with Fred Astaire "Begin the Beguine" is a pleasure without end. So gracious, talented and beautiful.

[@marknewton6984]

The Best!😮

[@3barsaday]

She is the GOAT.

[@ClementineJustice]

Love her movies!! She was so talented & Beautiful.

[@tdeli73]

The best Tap dancer of all times

[@marknewton6984]

She and Fred were unbeatable!😮

[@virgilrobertsjr7870]

I just saw her performance on, "Born To Dance" and she was sensational! 😎

[@lindafusco913]

SHE IS THE BEST !

[@bobr7380]

My very old father told me about her awhile back and I bought a couple of old classic films with her in it. As previously mentioned one with Fred Astaire. She seriously upstaged him with her dance and that's a lot to be said. Hence the reason why he wouldn't make another film with her. Not speaking poorly of Ginger Rogers but she couldn't hold a candle to Eleanor Powell. God Bless her soul.

[@paulabroussard1824]

If you're interested to know more about her life, there's a brand new biography released in August 2023 from University Press of Kentucky titled "Eleanor Powell: Born to Dance". It's available on Amazon.

Eleanor was a better dancer than Fred, as Fred once told Peter Ford. Eleanor wanted to make another film with Fred, but he wouldn't do it.

[@esmeephillips5888]

Roddy McDowall said Fred told him: She could do everything, she was the best woman dancer probably in history.'

[@ericmartin9296]

Rest in Peace Miss Ellie

[@gregoryagogo]

It's Fred 'Ah-stare' not Fred 'ASS-stare' (phonetically spelled)

[@stephenfermoyle4578]

love all her movies..of course the only thing ''tragic'' in this video is your voice. Miss Powell dies way to young.

[@davidbaise5137]

Thanks, and RIP Eleanor. And please, get a human being to narrate next time.

[@susanaluisa3192]

Que lástima, no sé inglés 🇺🇾

[@patriciapickett836]

Please learn how to pronounce correctly words like 'revue.'

[@noorgonzalez1076]

John 5:28 Revelation 21:3,4

[@johnpickford4222]

@noorgonzalez1076: GO TO HELL! What does a biblical reference have to do with the life and considerable art of Eleanor Powell? You insult Eleanor Powell, the Bible and God by posting something totally irrelevant. Grow up, fast.

[@HermanZelig]

Eleanor Powell was underappreciated. The narration is awful! Is the narrator an AI robot? From Minnesota, no less?

[@judywhiting1675]

Oh mr NARRATOR...where on Earth Did u learn to speak......u mispronounced...ASTAIRE... REVUE...AND A HILARIOUS VERSION..OF BEGIN THE BEGUINE...l stopped listening cuz it was too horrible to to LISTEN to....

[@summersojourner]

I had to stop listening as well because of the serious mispronunciation. These words and names are common knowledge. And when words end in “-ing-“ the g should be pronounced. Getting these things corrected will definitely make you sound more professional, Mr narrator.

[@ghw7192]

The voice sounds like AI to me.

[@echocheck]

I think I also heard George White's Sandals...instead of Scandals.

[@Daisnap]

@@echocheckI was going to mention the Sandals! I did learn a lot about her. A minister of a Unity Church! I didn’t know about her resurgence in the 60’s. Good for her!
