Rita Hayworth: I'm Old-Fashioned? No way.

clip from 'You were never lovelier'
Note the father-in-laws last line: "I don't want that card."
!!?!!

This is so beautiful. Rita such a natural dancer and Fred adores her. One of my favourite films and the songs wonderful from Jerome Kern. Thank you.

[@dudley5533]

The combination of Rita Hayworth's overall beauty and versatile great dancing talent is amazing.

[@ardis474]

Perfect grace, charm and beauty. Poetry in motion. Four superlative artists in their prime: Astaire, Rita Hayworth, composer Jerome Kern, lyricist Johnny Mercer.

[@kennethfreund123]

From 1942. The best of Astaire. With his best dancing partner, Rita Hayworth. Music by Jerome Kern. Lyrics by Johnny Mercer. Dubbing of Rita's singing by Nan Wynn. Look how Rita acts the lyric perfectly. Unforgettable. Watch Fred's subtle reacting (eyebrows). And the dancing is flawless. You can wait around and hope. But you'll never see the likes of this again.

[@dianaaljadeff2983]

Rita Cyd Charise and Vera Ellen were better dancers but for me the best Fred Astaire dancing partner was Ginger Rogers

[@ИгорьЯковлев-с1ц]

Вы оба правы.

[@elymar1970]

​@@dianaaljadeff2983Sin embargo para Fred, su mejor pareja de baile era Rita 😉

[@mdd4567]

Quel bonheur de les voir danser !! Beauté, élégance, synchronisation, tout y est !!! A jamais dans nos mémoires...

[@StarryDynamo88]

Respectfully- To you Rita- lightning ⚡️ captured my heart she is missed

[@evelynmitchell6796]

This video is one of my favourites of all time.

[@amylovesfredastaire]

I really love this movie so much 😍

[@andrelima7747]

Simplesmente linda,uma das Mulheres mais belas que já existiram na História de Todo Cinema . Como sofreu meu Deus ! E Como encantou .

[@elifernandez1507]

Rita Hayworth et Fréd Astaire absolument parfait 😀👌❤❤👠🌛🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@ИосифЕромицкий]

Не женщина, сама прелесть. От бога.

[@kingusmcgee]

For class, elegance and enormous talent, Fred Astaire was the shining star. Jerome Kern wrote such a beautiful score, also. Rita was a beauty, no question.

[@karinberryman7970]

Kern was incredible! Richard Rodgers was also a seriously under-rated composer (My Funny Valentine is pure magic). Dorothy Fields told how she broke into tears after listening to Jerome's music 'The Way You Look Tonight, for her winsome lyrics. She worked so well with him. Another delightful lyricist, Johnny Mercer wrote the lyrics to this beauty!

[@gwtwvivien]

@@karinberryman7970 In fact this is one of my fav movie songs. Everything is perfect❤

[@gwtwvivien]

@@karinberryman7970 "My funny Valentine" is another of my fav. I hear it for the first time in Pal Joey. But I have other versions too. Lovely!!!!❤

[@searlekochberg]

This is my favourite pas de deux in film musicals. I just marvel at the perfect sensuality of these two. Shear elegance....

[@charlesrussell5458]

this one belonged to both of them. My favorite too!

[@komnata519]

We could say that, this or that woman has elegance, beauty ... Rita Hayworth is elegance, it is beauty. They were born with her. It does not need more than to show itself as it is to magically dazzle. His gift pervades everyone who looks at it. There was nothing like ... nor will there be.

[@KennyTC63]

Rita Hayworth - what an absolute honey!!

[@lorisriolfo7606]

Absolutly gorgeous Rita !

[@jamestsuel]

Maybe iam nuts but Rita hayworth was one of worlds true beautiful women. And from all i can find on her life ,she was mistreated and used by the men in her life! Far the life of me i cant imagine how a man could hurt such a wonderful woman. A GODESS!

[@karinberryman7970]

Orson Welles (I think her 2nd husband) told that she really was a lovely person after she'd died and he was soon to go himself. He admitted he was the louse. All she honestly wanted was a stable, decent husband and a quite domestic life.

[@tallyho96]

WOW - they were perfect. PERFECT. Parfait.

[@christopherlyons5900]

This dance, to this song, was so hightly regarded, New York City Ballet did a live version of it. They still do it, in repertory. Playing the film clip first. Then various dancers doing their own version, choreographed by Jerome Robbins. Morton Gould wrote the music, based on the Kern melody. Robbins asked Astaire for his approval, and Astaire said he'd be honored. (Hayworth was, by that time, no longer around to be asked, and of course, neither was Jerome Kern).

[@kennethjackson9330]

Where are the Rita Hayworth s of today ,you can't beat the old stars ! Or the music

[@bbcisrubbish]

Why do today's women all have that awful stringy hair? They no longer have personality. As for those tattoos and bits of metal stuck everywhere, even where they can't be seen!!!!!!!

[@pamelapraderawagner8442]

MARAVILLOSOS POR IGUAL * * ♡ ♡

[@arrascaetadora7560]

Y a mi que ni en broma me vengan con otros temas. Soy, cuando me siento la Rita bailando. A propósito: Con mi amadas amigas de infancia nos bailabamos todo,lo que viniera. Es cierta sensibilidad , nada fácil era para nosotras,y divertimento que jamás olvidaré.

[@Palomablanca2008]

Love it !!!

[@midianholic]

You are not nuds. She was stunning. She glides so gracefully as well.

[@windsor1779]

Suspect she really never was lovelier.

[@tallyho96]

Anyone who thinks rap music is music and the various athletic gyrations performed in accompaniment to rap music are some form of dancing- are you kidding me? THIS is music. THIS is dancing.

[@SkipAscari]

wow now that is dancing

[@beatrizsanchez4983]

Lo cambia la musica !!!!! !! El es divino

[@kennethjackson9330]

Where are the Rita Hayworth s of today ??

[@arrascaetadora7560]

Cuando una excede en el pensar será tiempo donde otros se pongan a sentir. Se me ocurrió. Tipo basta loco.

[@beatrizsanchez4983]

Me gusta con la musica de Africa es mas pasional

[@gwtwvivien]

Es rumba.....

[@janedellapenna3713]

Who is doing the singing for Rita? Does anyone know?

[@nicklindsley7866]

Jane Della Penna Nan Wynn dubbed for her: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/I%27m_Old_Fashioned

[@BenKenobi92]

Well, it is just contemporary rap that is ear hurting, Talking in a song generally is not a bad idea, check what Joan Blondell does in the "Remember my forgotten men" dance number from Gold Diggers of 1933

[@greatvalue_ethelcain]

Lana Del Rey is foaming at the mouth

[@arrascaetadora7560]

O sea. Escribir escribe cualquiera haya aprendido a escribir. Son cosas que pasan dijera el gran Larralde

[@ulfjansson8116]

She wanted take lessons in singing, was not allowed. Pity....
