This is the most beautiful dance sequence I have ever seen. Her dress & the set with the stars...so lovely.

What a lovely couple that made their dancing style look so easy. Always appreciated their beautiful dance routines.

That rustle of her skirts in the beginning is something I haven't heard in a long time. I remember when it was common and part of the mysterious world of women.

This is sheer magic, elegance and perfection. There has been nothing like them before, during, nor since. A wonderful, adorable couple.

La la Land has a dancing scene with a similar starry backdrop. I just keep coming back to this one, though.

Ah, back in the days when dancing was authentic, and a talented couple could project romance so sweet you wanted to cry.

Now there's a couple who really knew how to spin! Gorgeous.

One of the most beautiful songs ever recorded along with the two dancers who truly showed us how a lovely song can be performed with Magical and Grace. Combining Exquisite Beauty and love together!

I know they divorced several years later, but for that moment in time what dancing, what chemistry!

My LA, Hollywood, Ca grandparents' during this era lived around the corner from 'RKO Gower Pictures' on N Bronson Ave which in Late '57 became 'Desilu Gower Studios' where some of these cinema classics might have been filmed in part ??

Marge and Gower Champion were the last big dance couple of the Film Musicals in the 50iger Years. Gower was unbeatable, and he was a good Singer.
