Dancing In The Dark 1953 (Fred Astaire & Cyd Charisse)

A beautiful ballroom number featuring two of Hollywood’s greatest dancers. I’ve included the rather lengthy lead in with the dance beginning at about the 1:40​ mark. Cyd Charisse was another of those dancers who could do just about anything on the dance floor. I would also argue that she was the best looking dancer of her time and probably any time. This number is beautiful at every level, the song, the orchestration and of coarse the dance. Gorgeous.
