Certainly there are lots of things in life that money won’t buy, but have you ever tried to buy them without money?

Wow! Eleanor Powell was one of the best. Those dancers had to have practiced for hours and days. Although I don’t remember, I bet my mother took me and went to see that picture at the local movie theater back in the 1940’s. 🙂 — Suzanne

She was amazing. Of course, as someone who can’t dance and can’t do rope tricks, I’m impressed with anyone who can do either, let alone both at once. And Eleanor could do both at once without breaking a sweat, and make it look easy!

I don’t know if I’m more impressed with her dancing or her handling of the lariat. She was quite athletic, too.

To bad that the films do not do these kind of films any more.
They are entertaining to watch and good songs to listen to, also.
