Here are Maya Plisetskaya (32 yrs old and before she became an international star) and Nikolai Fadeyechev, in the Russian 1957 film. What's notable, that even though dancers are generally slimmer today, with longer legs and more arched feet, her arms (port de bras) are still second to none, and her musicality is impeccable. Also the tempo is much faster than how this is danced today. There are more recent films of her in this Pas; in the 1974 one she is much thinner, but this is still an object lesson in history and artistry.
