Just like swans - The elegant gliding above, and the frantic activity of the men under the pianos. Astounding to have thought of it, combined with the amazing execution.
I always felt that the part when the girls/dancers retreat into the corner and are waving in the now-darkened massive studio is especially beautiful. Berkeley was a genius.
Way cool! I pity the with pianos 'on their backs'- lol. Back when only the MOST talented people made it to the top. Now... well, Busby is probably spinning in his grave.
Watching this film - Golddiggers of 1935 - now. What a breathtaking scene. Brilliant Busby! Fun fact: the young female lead is Gloria Stuart - you know her as the old lady from Titanic!
Un real . I’m thinking of the king of jazz from 1929 I think also had some incredible numbers . When you consider no special effects like today it’s really something.
The craziest most surreal number in Hollywood History ! I just love it ! Dick Powell crooning the waltz number is also very good and the girls are so cute too !
Busby Berkely and his kaleidoscopic symmetry. Still wow-ing nearly 80 years later! A work that is "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". Great stuff! Totally magical and stunning.
Escaping in buckets here. David Greenhill on YT JUST OOZES THIS VERY FREQUENCY. Love it love it love it. Just what our world needs now ...love, love and more love. So very glad I searched for BUSBY on YT. K x
There was one man below each of these "pianos" bending over in a studio that was about 120 degrees. Busbie Berkeley was often known to take 25 + takes on these films. The men were known for just passing out one by one as the day went on from exhaustion.
Interesting to see if they could make anything like this today. Berkeley was a genius. Love to see something like this in color, wide screen and surround sound. Probably wouldn't be able to find enough young women willing to do this kind of thing!
Part of its charm and character is the fact it is in black-and-white, and filmed with the latest in technology from 1933. Please enjoy it exactly as it is, for what it is. Thank goodness art like this has been preserved on film.

I'm not into musicals at all, but for some resaon YT keeps suggesting me to watch these clips, which are very impressive and technically amazing but, sorry, I can't help thinking every time "wow! they had to be really high on something to concieve these scenes!"
@@alantaylor6691 thank you, I actually wanted to change it, because it contains some gross language, but yt won't allow this, one has to create a new account
@@canalsoloparaverunvideodem8451 lol. If I start watching too many of these Busby Berkeley numbers I'll probably end up around the twist like you now are, right? To heck, I'm going for it.
They used to rehearse for days to perfect numbers like this and then did fantastic editing., Today it's a few hours practice, film it, then we can fix it up in post production.
“You need how many pianos on turntables??”
I wonder how this footage was shot. It`s just like a miracle of motion pictures.
How was this done, technically?
Discipline and class are the words l would use to describe the beautiful presentation.
I wonder how they filmed this scene on an era without CG.

My mom is in this somewhere! Wish it would zoom in more!!
Bless your Mom, they were all such beautiful girls. I am sure she was lovely !

Ces mises en scènes grandioses et ce sens inouï de l'esthétique
The pianos have human legs!
Awesome. How we use to love the piano! Much much better than any organ sound!
You can see the boy’s feet. How many takes bent over like that?
How do these bent over in half men stay so perfectly in place and then move so perfectly in sync even if they were looking through the latticework?

Studio went nuts when he cut a hole in the ceiling for an overhead shot..!
ONE OF BUZZS GREATEST ACHIEVEMENTS. YOU COULDNT DO IT TODAY AT ANY PRICE.

Joyful music with spectacular pianos.
So simple a number yet brilliant why can't the film makers of today have such imagination
Song: "The Words Get in the Way"...
I wonder how many takes this took. The coordination alone is mind boggling!
Elegance please come back
I LOVE 30S HILARIOUS MOVİES
Such a wonderful video, does anyone know where it is from ? What movie ? Please ❤️
Gold Diggers of 1935 - this film also includes the fantastic Lullaby of Broadway.
I can not imagine the time it took to block and shoot this. The Gold Diggers remains Busby's untouchable masterpiece.
what technology did they use
Precise coordination of the guys and gals, look carefully and you will see the men's legs under the pianos. Most of all gorgeous smiling faces.
@@et1249 I did notice the men's legs under the pianos .🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Really amazing for that time.
Just an astonishing production for the mid-1930s.
This CGI is amazing! It looks like there are SO many pianos! =D
That's because there are that many pianos... this movie is from the 30s so there wasn't any CGI back then
filmed backwards, i mean played backwards.
وجوه متفاوت دارد ! هر چه هست به جوجه فاشیست باج نمی داد
Pure class entertainment. Not much more can be said. 100% quality everywhere.

Beautiful script is Persian. It is Persian, right?

They're hight on creativity, just like your username. What a name!

Cosa hanno usato per far ballare i pianoforti!
Oumini in gamba!
is this from Dames by any chance?
Gold Diggers of 1935
2:09 If your intestines were lined with pianos instead of villi
Love it!!!
Wonder how long it took to find beautiful women that could play piano and dance
Somerhing tells me they are pretending to play while professionals are playing.. This must have cost a fortune though
Lol. The ladies are NOT playing. Barely faking it. However, a most spectacular & innovative production number!!! Enjoy!
Movies back then had no substance. Just spent huge sums of money on props and pretty girls.
1930s movie making: Prime rib. Today's long list of CGI superhero movies: Hot dog cart.
They used to rehearse for days to perfect numbers like this and then did fantastic editing., Today it's a few hours practice, film it, then we can fix it up in post production.
This feels sureal, like a fever dream.
Heartwarmingly delightful.
