Fred Astaire Puttin' on the Ritz

I don't think I've posted this one yet.  If I have, it's certainly worth watching again! This, to me, is the definitive Astaire--at his best.

From "Blue Skies"--1946.  Enjoy!

I can't hear this song without thinking of the movie, "Young Frankenstein." Sorry. ;-)

It is very funny. Look for that on youtube.

That was pretty good. I don't usually like the older stuff, but I found myself watching this one til the end.

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
