My inspiration came from What's the Mashup? ( • 100 Movies Dance Scene... ) but I didn't manage 100! The idea was to do the same for movies from the Golden Age - meaning no title later than 1953 (although there is one at the end.) Oh, and none of these clips was sped up or slowed down.
Turn on subtitles to find out the film names.
PS. I write books as well. Here's two very reasonably priced ones about movies:

Film Editing is the one art form unique to the cinema. All other constituent parts of the medium derive from something else that came before. Writing and composing had been around for centuries; production design, special effects, acting and directing all came from the theatre, and sound was a later development following on from the phonograph. Even cinematography had an ancestor in photography. But editing had no ancestor. It was invented by the cinema and remains the essence of it. And yet now the Academy has decided - in its ever decreasing wisdom - to relegate this award to a highlights reel. Disgraceful.
Some of us did not watch the awards show which has become an embarrassment; can you clarify what happened with the editing category?
@@Woodsballer209 Joe Walker can explain here, at about 2.06 (kzhead.info/sun/mqh_lM6tn6Fna4U/bejne.html)

@Rick O'Shea midget p- *HOL UP!*
@Rick O'Shea Rick, you just gotta rise above it. Considering the people involved it doesn't need to be that hard.
@Sheryl Dalton Seriously Sheryl, misery beyond belief. This video had me just laughing! I mean there IS goodness in the world! :)
That “STOP- Wait a minute” moment was simply magical.
You're 100% right. The whole video is absolutely dynamite.
Yesss! Dynamite describes it perfectly. 🤩💃🕺💥🎺
I couldn’t agree more!!!
What was magical about that part, they weren't dancing then.
Mystic Heart - Are you serious? The fact that the editor managed to find the absolute perfect clip where a whole bunch of dancing/marching people just *happens* to stop and stand completely still to match the lyrics IS what makes it magical!
Every six months or so I have to come back to this one. The editing, in selection, in cutting, and never missing a beat, is just incredible, the general mood is tremendous and it sustains throughout. It's a fun love letter to old Hollywood: musicals, follies, comedies, and everybody's happy and happy about being happy. it's about the perfect length, it can't get old. This video basically justifies the entire existence of KZhead.
I SO AGREE!
I actually do the same thing.. It’s a go to of mine 🤩✨👌
The Fact that most of these clips were from almost 100 years ago, just shows you that talent and skill have no boundaries...regardless hat century or era you were from. Amadeus is a perfect example of that
I actually find this fascinating.. it takes a lot of editing n matching the moves with Hollywood Dancers of the Era.. It’s Very creative N fun to Watch.. I use to watch these movies with my parents. FUN 🤩
I have to re-watch this occasionally to get my funk back! And I am 85 years old!
Me too!! LUV IT LUV IT LUV IT 😍💃🤗

@JohnnieRhodes Yes I totally agree... this is pure genius... can you imagine the patience this took????
@JohnnieRhodes Thank you for responding. Is there any way we can find out who actually made this video? I am thinking that maybe it was a big company that had lots of staff to do the research etc....BUT if it was ONE person, then that is even more compelling to me. Any thoughts on that?
This dance compilation masterpiece is a labour of love..😊!
Thank You ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The level of detail here is insane. They didn't just match beats, but lyrics and set pieces, too. Such a labor of love ❤
The timing for the "Stop" was incredible. Not to mention that the moves actually matched the music's ups, downs and swaying. Incredible.
I can't imagine the edit time this took, there's more than 50 movies here.
..and I'd enjoy watching every single one of them!
Indeed. I've done it on a very small scale. This must have taken a month or so.
I know right?
I definitely understand, it took me 4 months to create a 2010s montage that was 2 hours long. You really have to search everywhere for the specific videos.
And what about this cool one too ?!! kzhead.info/sun/oN5sc7Sym3V6qqs/bejne.html

I DO AGREE @@christinau65
I wish I could like this comment more than once!!
Agreed
A reminder that Cagney was a great dancer as well as actor.
It’s crazy the skill sets actors had to have back then. “Sure you can read lines, but can you dance, sing, sword fight and ride a horse?”. There’s a few shots in there of James Cagney, a guy known mostly for his heavy, serious gangster roles.. but even he had to tap dance at a professional level.
he originally was a dancer in chorus. i guess we all have to start elsewhere. he was a great entertainer.
Very true but the studios had very shrewd executives and producers who TOOK CHANCES and developed people that they knew had "something" special. Debbie Reynolds was not a dancer, was scared when they assigned her Singin In The Rain and look at her in it. Fantastic. They trained her and spent months rehearsing and you see the result.. Most (not all) producers/gatekeepers now are just money people--they're not interested in DEVELOPING talent, just exploiting it.
Lol exactly
Most couple play a musical instrument as well, usually the piano.
If you wanted to work for MGM you had to
But, seriously, isn't there an award for this kind of masterpieces? Speechless about the editing and synchronisation.
Nailed every beat. Crazy good!!
Exactly my thought. Every second of it was perfectly synchronized.
There needs to be! Does this qualify for a Webby?
Seriously! Absolutely right!
The bit at "Stop! Wait a minute!" is perfect.
I don't know how many times I have watched this, but every time it makes me happy. The public sphere today is filled with anger and hatred. It is a treat to see a piece that invites us to celebrate wonderful talent.
me me me too!
Sometimes anger is appropriate. But we must never lose our sense of joy.
Today? Always
It's amazing how Hollywood has changed. Once upon a time you not only had to be either beautiful or handsome but have talent as well. Most of the big stars of the 30s, 40s and 50s could sing, dance and play an instrument along with outstanding acting chops. How many in Hollywood today can do much more than act? Or maybe the movies these days don't allow them to showcase all of their talents. One of the reasons I like old movies so much.
Life was simpler back then.
A good number of todays actors are musicians as well. Dancing on the other hand is dead.
Times change. Nothing is static.

I believe that was actually Frank Sinatra's mouth, not Mickey Rooney's.
@@luongtrungnghia8097 you may be right. it went by quickly, and I didn't rewind to check. thanks :D
..and the Rita Hayworth scene where she raises her arms, looks like she says hot dance.
I showed this to my 82 year old mom, and she knew every single movie without looking at the damn list. What the heck. Why don't we have movies like this to go see anymore? She went every Friday night
Same reason people wear sweatpants everywhere, and are foul-mouthed and promiscuous. The decay of civilizations is a eternal cycle
I have never watched any of these clips in my life. But I suddenly realized, "Old is gold"
Fred Astaire..one of, absolutely, the best dancers in the history of the world (Michael Jackson used to watch his movies and practice the dance moves.) 👍💙😉
Tushar Kakkar-I watched all of those movies as a kid, studied dance and am a musician. As such, the virtuosity of this vid was not lost on me. Old is gold and its heartwarming to hear that from somebody from a later generation.
Some of my fondest memories were watching the 'oldies' with my grandmother. It's amazing to see how well the dancing of yesteryear meshes with that song. Makes me want to get up and dance. I hope you'll explore the movies these clips came from.
Well, I'mthe501th like.
Right? These guys completely raise the bar for dance talent.

yes , i am copying this for a function in ST helena bay in SOUTH AFRICA
I have seen this a few times now and it certainly makes me feel happy and wish that I was forty years younger.!!!
Just watched it 3x in a row. Turned on closed captioning, to get the names from each clip.

Well....the dance moves were choreographed by a lot of people, all of whom are probably dead now and most of them probably did receive awards. This video though was edited by someone that deserved a reward for sure though.
Still my favorite after 7 years. Absolutely brilliant and never gets old.
They are better dancers than anything now!
Turn on the "closed captioning" and the title of the movies will appear.

You're cute
I'm pretty sure Frank Sinatra said "too hot" too.
And Judy Garland said “Hallelujah”
Time stamp?

Every time I watch this I'm more impressed by the editing. It doesn't just fit the beat, the moves flow seamlessly from one clip into the next.
Just imagine the patience required to do that so well. I am equally impressed every time I watch it.
And I'm also impressed with the repetitive themes, like scenes from many movies where everyone is dancing on stairs.
I just played this for my 93 year old mom, with big speakers thumping. She had tears. What a gift. Thank you.
+Jeremy Lape p.s... I would love to see this played at "old folks homes" all over. Even if people just take their phones and headsets along when they visit.

Fred Astaire was asked who was the most talented dancer he danced with, and why. He said, 'Ginger Rogers, because she can do every complicated step I can do, but backwards, and in heels'. Lol💗
That is true, he actually said it! And I think they had great screen chemistry, too. Love them together.

He was right!

@@blam9360 I have also seen it attributed to Astsire, it makes sense that he might have said it. I have also seen it attributed to someone called Anne Richards, also to a "Frank and Ernest" comic from the 80s. I'm going with Fred Astaire
8 years ago, I saw this on a Facebook feed and it did not even have 500,000 views yet. A few hours later it had over a million. And by the evening it was getting so many views, I couldn't keep up. I knew when I first saw it that it would be viral quick.
And as of today it's watching has created over 30,300 comments. All because this is one VERY entertaining video.
I have watched this for many years, and it never get old. One of my favorite videos to watch when the seasonal depression sets in. Makes me so happy and just want to dance around my room.
Out of countless thousands of possible dance scenes, it is absolutely mind blowing that someone could edit and synch this to such perfection. It’s fantastic from start to finish.

@@Katrinawitch how about that big smile on Mickey Rooney's face right after.
Only half at best fit the beat.
@@johndoe-qv3fi disagree,
Fun fact, when Jimmy Cagney started tap dancing down the stairs in Yankee Doodle Dandy, it was improvised. He was just supposed to walk down, but he decided spur of the moment that Cohan (his character) would have danced. Director Michael Curtiz agreed and left it in.
Thank you for sharing that. Always loved Cagney.

Tbh this should have been the music video for the song. Also I almost died when those dudes jumped off the balcony near the end and landed in splits. Owwww.
Ananias, James and Warren Berry. See the whole routine at kzhead.info/sun/maaJYaeXopWsoqM/bejne.html The whole contiuous take starts almost 30 seconds before this with them doing the splits, twirling canes and running up the stairs, before leaping from the balcony. So many things could have gone wrong to spoil the take (including throwing their canes from out of shot for them to catch at the end). God knows how many times they had to reshoot. The one on the left (Ananias, I think) looks like he's about to lose his hat on landing, isn't quite in position to receive the cane cleanly, and trips on the step (!) on the way off stage at the end. (I'm still not sure whether the trip was scripted, adlibbed or a goof.) They were not credited for the movie, Panama Hattie. Ananias died less than 10 years later.
They were in a lot of great old musicals. Watch TCM
How they can still walk after is beyond me.....

The sheer amount of talent on display here--both the Golden Age dancers, and the musicality and technical skills of the editors--is astounding. I love this video so much.
I dare to say more talent than we see from the vast majority of our current stars. I know I know, stars today can't perform stunts because of insurance, but still, the earlier stars easily win on talent and personality.

Whoever made this video is a rock-solid genius. I love these old movies and it was so fun watching this. I just can't believe someone could get all this so spot-on.
I think it says something too about the timeless quality of the dancing and a song like this. So many "younger" people these these are so "ewww" about anything not the most recent. Stuff evolves but retains what comes before. I think the best performers are the ones that can appreciate what came before.

That was from the film "Yankee Doodle Dandy". Jimmy Cagney was aged up at this point in the film - the finale. There are those who say he was an actor who just mugged it when dancing in his early films. This scene shows that's rubbish. Only a highly skilled hoofer could have done this sequence of tap steps. Here's the scene, the short sequence starts at: 2' 23": kzhead.info/sun/qZWrm96NgH5uops/bejne.html

Couldn’t have said it any better!!! Many thanks to AMAZING creator of this inspired and inspiring work! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
The Fact that most of these clips were from almost 100 years ago, just shows you that talent and skill have no boundaries...regardless hat century or era you were from. Amadeus is a perfect example of that
Thank you Bruno's music to bring back the true the original icons
Could watch these all day.😮
Talk about award winning. There has to be some sort of award for this.
53 million views worth of award!!
just normal Hollywood talent from the old days, nothing compares to it now. Go ahead and twerk that big fat ass, you got nothing on your elders
I love watching this because I am a dancer and they are awesome!!
This never gets old. I’ve seen it multiple times and it’s always a joy.
It is a total joy! And perfection!
Like, HOW!
Oh yes!
No it doesn't which is why I'm here again.
Genius. And you even included dancing from all the way back to the silent movies! God bless you for sharing your masterpiece with the world.
This song and video still don’t receive the credits it’s due!! Love it.
Nobody: KZhead: Here’s the classiest thing you’ll ever watch Viewers: Thank you ☺️
I really miss when the camera was more static in musicals so you could actually see the skill put into the dancing.
That was Fred Astaire's and Hermes Pan's contribution. Fred said: 'Either the camera dances or I do.' Notice that this compilation omits Busby Berkeley's massed spectacles, which were more about cinema trickery and editing than choreographic or performing skills. The aesthetic of the music video owes more to Buzz, although he did not try to disguise lack of talent with fast cutting.
@@esmeephillips5888 Interesting, thanks! Too bad both aren't used more equally. Though I do get using camera edits in case the actor can't quite get the moves or to draw the eye. Celebrity casting or not, an actor/tress can mostly be trained, so I hope the static camera returns one day. I also miss it's use in action films like Jackie Chan movies so to look at the great fighting stunts.
I felt the same for so many years! Simply give me the best camera angle and allow me to view the entire routine as if I had the best seat in the house! I had often wondered what the chorus was up to in modern musicals and opening numbers as well as the action going on in the backfield of televised sport events. How I miss the good old days.
@@sharoncarter5962 Yeah, don't get me wrong, I do enjoy dynamic camera angles but sometimes you really want to see the human performance from the cast. I also miss static cameras from action movies like in old Jackie Chan films.
Now they shake the camera until you get motion sickness and don't ever wanna go to the movies again.

Unlimited talent plus pure fun = uplifting joy.
I'm five years late to the party, but this video is just poetry.
I feel the same way. It just showed up in my recommends. I was already a fan of all these movies and it is a remarkable job of editing that the creator did to sync each one to the music. I have already bookmarked this one and will likely watch it for years to come. We should all make a pact to come back and post at least once every year.
Same here, so glad this hit my feed and I stayed to the end. Epic.
Need more of this now days🙏🏻😉
This is people dancing, decades, cultures and just feeling the music. No racism, no nothing. Just a pure love of dancing.
@@bettywhite9786 the music is rubbish Betty, should be the original but that is probably too hard to do.
I didn't want this. _Now I need more of it._
Indeed.
Robert E. O. Speedwagon Watch TCM if you can. You won't be disappointed
Two words for you: Gene Kelly. ^_^
