I love the old Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly movies; they're so beautiful to look at. It's such a shame we don't make them anymore. Although, I don't know how you could make tap dancing current and topical. ↗

I wish I was born in that era: dancing with Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly, going to work at the studio dressed in beautiful pants, head scarves, and sunglasses. ↗

Astaire never thought of what he was doing as balletic, but Kelly was always trying to dance with women on points. And his choreography is so showy and flashy. He always looks self-satisfied to me. ↗

I was spawned by some pretty good people in this business - Mr. Astaire, Mr. Tracy. They stopped and took their time to talk to people. ↗

Astaire was not a sexual animal, but he made his partners look so extraordinarily related to him. ↗

My uncle, who was a little more flamboyant, always said the guy who dressed the best was Fred Astaire. ↗

When Ginger Rogers danced with Astaire, it was the only time in the movies when you looked at the man, not the woman. ↗

Fred Astaire is my hero. I love him because he was willing to kill himself to make his art look effortless. And because he proved it's possible to be an artist and a good person. ↗
