Do you know a dance routine that we missed? Let us know below, and be sure to also check out our video of the Top 10 Greatest Dance Movies - ruclips.net/video/k8MKtYcP5Gs/видео.html
My sister, her best friend and I watched Swing Kids, Dead Poets Society and Much Ado About Nothing all the time in high school. All three with the great Robert Sean Leonard.
I know this is a year later, sorry! But long long ago, that was what they had for fun, socializing, competition, dating. And it worked! So many folks could dance, did dance, tried to get better at it( competition). There was something to do at parties. Always- I still experienced it in the 60, 70s, 80s. We would watch the shows on Friday, try to do the dances Friday nights or Saturday nights. Was fun, and you got to be very close to someone you crushed on! Good times. I hope you have kept up dancing. Worlds greatest pastime.
I love swing dances, jazz has always been my favourite genre of music. The dancers always look like they're enjoying themselves, their enthusiasm is infectious. 💕💃🎶
I'm one of the weirdos who loves Spielberg's movie 1941 for it's totally off the wall over the top performances and set pieces, and one of my favorite moments is the dance at the USO club. A crazy ass swing dance ending in a brawl between Army and Navy that literally brings the house down!
I'm one of the folks thar loves that movie as well! It's a part of my childhood and my friends actually used to quote lines, like Ed Beagly's "OH! Too much!" and Belushi's "Look, a baby wolf"!
The first movie I ever remember seeing, I remember from the amazing jitterbug & Lindy Hop choreographies. I was 3 in 1942 & I can still recall the dance sequences. It might have been Hellzapoppin. I remember there were black and white dancers and musicians. It was a WW2 movie in black and white. I loved it. I am blessed with parents who could't afford a babysitter, and went to the movies at last once a week, taking their baby,toddler,little kid with them. I became a singer and I credit it to Judy garland and the Andrew Sisters. I'm 83, still love to dance & sing.
Fun fact: the guy dancing with Madonna in the "League of their Own" scene was Eddie Mekka, better known as Shirley's boyfriend Carmine Ragusa (aka The Big Ragoo) in Laverne and Shirley.
THANK YOU for showing the Lindy Hoppers! I tried to tell someone about them years ago and I swear they didn't know they existed! This is one of your BEST videos!
Um...this is like the 3rd time they have put the Lindy Hoppers as number 1 on a list. Hell, I clicked on this video JUST to see them get the top spot again. I didn't even watch 10-2 lol
@@KoolKeithProductions As it's well deserved. They really are the best. Frankie Manning's book is great as it goes over all of this history of Lindy Hop.
The fact that the final dance competition in the movie 1941 was left out, is criminal! Huge production piece that weaves in a love triangle plot as the dance competition is taking place! It's funny, has great, acrobatic dancing and athletic skill! Definitely a fun dance number!
I'm so glad that Jean's routine made the list. She still had it up until her passing earlier this year. She reprised the girl and two boys routine [slightly modified] when she was 93 with the assistance of Steve Conrad (of Phoenix's LIndy Underground) and Joel Plys. Is wish you'd also included that when touching on the routine. I was one of the lucky few who was able to attend a workshop a while back where we learned from her and Rusty Frank (her co-teacher). They even taught us the iconic tuck-turn to full-stop variation that was a signature of hers.
The Buck Privates sequence was performed by Dean Collins and Jewel McGowen. She was one of the foremost Lindy Hop dancers, ever, but she passed at a very young age, in her 40s.
Wow!. That was a great collection, i'm glad you showed Whitey's at the end, that really is acrobatics. Also what a fabulous soundtrack, really infectious.
Whitey's Lindy Hoppers are impressive. In fact, it was entirely because their routine in "A Day At The Races" blew my mind that I decided to buy this movie as a Christmas present for a friend of mine.
Malcolm X 1992 should definitely be on this list. More honorable mentions: The Other Side of Heaven (Anne Hathaway), Miss Annie Rooney (teenage Shirley Temple).
Believe it or not Jerry Lewis had one of the greatest Swing/Jitterbug dance routines with Sheree North in “Living it Up”. If you haven’t seen it, look it up. He’s incredible!!
Swing dancing preceded the rock,'n'roll dancing in the 50s.Both seriously cool, and requiring considerable athleticism and dexterity from its proponents.
My absolute favorite memory as a child is watching one set my Great Grandparents ALWAYS dancing to Big Band music everywhere in their house. I started to learn some moves with my Great Grandpa then he unfortunately passed away when I was 9, 💔. I treasure those memories. 🥰
When I started this video, I was hoping you'd include the scene withe Jean Veloz in "Swing Fever". I'm gratified that you did. I had the privilege to dance with her in 2007 (or was it 2006?) at the Spanish Ballroom at Echo Park near Washington DC. It was a joy, even though I could never rise to the skill she still had. I'm kind of disappointed that you didn't call out Frankie Manning from "Hellsapoppin' ", though. He had more influence on the spread of swing dancing out of Harlem that Jean Veloz. After attending an event that Frankie Manning attended, when I signed up for swing dance lessons in 2006, I told the lady that I wanted to be able to dance like Frankie Manning. She responded, "You want to dance like an 83-year-old man?" I replied, "No. I want to dance like THAT 83-year-old man!"
I used to travel to the Spanish Ballroom for dance. Mostly for Contra weekends, but some swing, too. Thanks for the reminder. Loved those Dancing Days!
A wonderful compilation. I kept hoping to see "Let Yourself Go" from the Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers film "Follow the Fleet." I can see why it is not included--it is their attempt to capture that swing energy in a tap number, rather than portraying an actual dance hall. But the number does include shots of two other couples "challenging" the main pair with their steps, and according to Arlene Croce in her book "Fred and Ginger" they were top-notch amateurs. There is also the homage to the Lindy in the number "Shorty George" by Fred and Rita Hayworth in "You Were Never Lovelier."
Okay, but you forgot to mention that Whitey’s Lindy Hoppers *INVENTED* the dance, and Frankie Manning and Willa Mae Ricker did the first “air steps” as Frankie called them. Such athletes! Great list, it was fun to watch and reminisce my dancing days.
While ANYONE can do the basic swing steps, these performers doing aerials in these clips are professionals and have practiced these moves and specifically with each other to develop deep amounts of trust that the other person will perform as they are supposed to not only look good, but to do the move SAFELY! It takes tons of trust to allow someone to throw you up into the air. You should never do an aerial with someone you have not danced with before AND TRUST implicitly, because doing an aerial wrong can get you hurt and in some cases hurt badly. I know it doesn't LOOK that dangerous as you don't seem to be that far off the ground, but as in gymnastics and cheerleading, falling from 10 feet in the air to the ground can injure you, so just be careful.
Preach. Years ago a dance instructor here in town had the dumbass idea that because she watched Swing Kids, she could teach swing dance. She was actually teaching the aerials in class (again, her only training was watching a movie), having students throw each other around and as a result kids were ending up with concussions or worse. As lawsuits piled up, the studio almost closed its doors for good. Just a side note, it's one thing to watch Newsies a thousand times and memorize the dance moves, that's one thing but you CAN'T DO THAT WITH SWING DANCE!!!! The studio I went to and the teacher I had, only taught basic lifts. She had years of training and had the common sense not to have first year students throwing each other around.
@@PrincessBunheadThat sounds like a HORROR MOVIE!! 😨 So glad to hear it was closed down, but it sure sounds like it should've been closed down as soon as she even started THINING about having beginner children doing such moves 😵 Also happy to hear that your own dance instructor wasn't like *_that_* idiot!
Bounce me Brother is one of my favourite dance clips. In fact, the featured dancers in your clip, at the guy Dean Collins was featured in at least two of you other clips, One with the same partner, Jewel (cant think of her last name). Man could she Swivel.
Some other swing styles in film: Blondie meets the boss 1939: Collegiate Shag The Gentle Sex 1943: St Louis Shag Start Cheering 1938 - Balboa College Swing 1938 - Solo Charleston in a 3 Stooge-like comedy act with Bob Hope, George Burns and Ben Blue
The Lindy Hoppers! Never mentioned enough. Brendon Fraser's Blast From The Past is great. Didn't Judy Garland swing dance in a movie? Plus others mentioned in these comments. Obviously swing dancing is still much loved. 😊
dudes, of course I agree with your picks, but Whitey's Lindyhoppers are not "among the greatest swing dancers of all times", they are literally , personally the creators of Lindy Hop.
Do you know a dance routine that we missed? Let us know below, and be sure to also check out our video of the Top 10 Greatest Dance Movies - ruclips.net/video/k8MKtYcP5Gs/видео.html
1941
Roseland Ballroom scene from Malcolm X. Actually had cameos of Frankie Manning and Norma Miller. Some fun dance scenes from the movie Shag.
I'm surprised you missed the final dance in Swing, with Hugo Speer.
Spilberg's film 1941
Notable for the wearing of stockings by the females 🙂
Swing Kids is such a good movie and the soundtrack is fantastic
My sister, her best friend and I watched Swing Kids, Dead Poets Society and Much Ado About Nothing all the time in high school. All three with the great Robert Sean Leonard.
Swing Kids is a very underrated film in my opinion and one of my favorites.
It is impossible to stay still when swing music is playing. Louis Prima's Sing, Sing, Sing is the greatest dance song ever.
I know this is a year later, sorry! But long long ago, that was what they had for fun, socializing, competition, dating. And it worked! So many folks could dance, did dance, tried to get better at it( competition). There was something to do at parties. Always- I still experienced it in the 60, 70s, 80s.

@@jillianclark4076 Agree with everything you've said. What great memories. Keep those feet flying!
So glad Brendan Fraser's swing dance performance from Blast From The Past was recognized here!
YES!! That's what I was hoping to see here! Terrific movie, and the best scene in it!
@@LoriPeace I agree! Underappreciated movie.
Blast from the Past is one of my favorite movies. It may be just because of that dance scene ❤❤❤
Me too that is a great fun movie 😊
You can contrast this performance with "serious" roles in Gods and Monsters or The Quiet American. A good actor can play many roles.
I love swing dances, jazz has always been my favourite genre of music. The dancers always look like they're enjoying themselves, their enthusiasm is infectious. 💕💃🎶

Yeah I was disappointed that 1941 wasn't included. It should have least gotten an honorable mention.
Incredible choreography in the USO scene.
Absolutely. That was a fantastic movie and the swing dance at the USO was great.
I'm one of the folks thar loves that movie as well! It's a part of my childhood and my friends actually used to quote lines, like Ed Beagly's "OH! Too much!" and Belushi's "Look, a baby wolf"!
Couldn't agree more bloke, it was a great dance scene... and one of my all time favourites.

How about the first 10 minutes, or so of the movie? That and the dance sequence make it a must see to believe.
Fun fact: the guy dancing with Madonna in the "League of their Own" scene was Eddie Mekka, better known as Shirley's boyfriend Carmine Ragusa (aka The Big Ragoo) in Laverne and Shirley.

@@KoolKeithProductions As it's well deserved. They really are the best. Frankie Manning's book is great as it goes over all of this history of Lindy Hop.
It's actually Whitey's Lindy Hoppers named for the founder Herbert "Whitey" White. (The nickname was for the white streak in his hair.)
I was so happy to see that you chose Hellzapoppin as number one. It is by far my favorite dance scene of all time!
How can you beat it with Frankie Manning's choreography?
The fact that the final dance competition in the movie 1941 was left out, is criminal! Huge production piece that weaves in a love triangle plot as the dance competition is taking place! It's funny, has great, acrobatic dancing and athletic skill! Definitely a fun dance number!
Thank you.
Exactly.
swing kids introduced me to swing dance and Ive loved it ever since

Spike Lee’s “Malcolm X” has a great swing dance scene in the first part of the film. Denzel and Spike got moves!
And cameo'd Frankie Manning and Norma Miller
YES YES YES!!!
@@armynurseboy I think Frankie choreographed it, but I could be wrong.
@@MeredithDomzalski It was choreographed by Ryan Francois... who was a Frankie disciple...
@@armynurseboy Thanks! It had been a while, and I forgot. :)
Whitey's Lindy Hoppers are amazing! Excellent choice for #1!
Honestly, if they didn't choose that as number one, I would bet angry! Some of the other choices were questionable.
I would actually watch these videos if not for the narration.
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support! :)
As a swing dancer, this video makes me happy, thanks ^^
The Buck Privates sequence was performed by Dean Collins and Jewel McGowen. She was one of the foremost Lindy Hop dancers, ever, but she passed at a very young age, in her 40s.
... and Dean Collins developed the West Coast Swing!
For a combination of chaos and skill, I love the snippet from "1941" - Sailors Fighting in the Dance Hall
That then turns into a zuit suite riot. It's a fantastic scene... should have been in here.
I swing dance almost every week. I’m 67 and keeps me in shape!
Spike Lee’s Malcolm X has an incredible Lindy Hop performance featuring members of Whitey’s Lindy Hoppers and was choreographed by one of them.
Choreographed by Frankie Manning. From what I remember both he and Norma Miller were in the scene.
Whitey's Lindy Hoppers OMG👏👍👍
Swing Kids "Sing, Sing, Sing." Dance to this back in High School, Both in Dance Class and in our Band Concert.
I was so anxious about your choice for the first place, and I couldn't help shouting "Yess!!" out loud. What else could be there!
Hellzapoppin is the only movie deserving to be number 1 for swing dance scenes.
because it's the original, Frankie Manning who choreographed Hellzapoppin is the Lindy Hop king who created these airsteps
True!! So true. The insane set that who can compete with? ❤
Tia & Tamera in Seventeen Again has one of my favorite swing scenes
#1 hands down
The dance scene from Seventeen Again with Tia and Tamera Mowry was really good too
100% agree, better than all these !
Wow!. That was a great collection, i'm glad you showed Whitey's at the end, that really is acrobatics. Also what a fabulous soundtrack, really infectious.
Whitey's Lindy Hoppers are impressive. In fact, it was entirely because their routine in "A Day At The Races" blew my mind that I decided to buy this movie as a Christmas present for a friend of mine.
And as an extra added bonus you get the Marx Brothers thrown in for free. What a deal.
I love Swing Kids and Swingers.🙂I think Blast From The Past is great.🙂:-D😀
Hello 👋 how are you doing!!?
Swing Kids was one of my favorite movies as a teenager. Looking back at it, you can Christian Bale develop his Bruce Wayne persona.
I am happy to hear the swing dance scene from "Buck Privates" got an honorable mention as that is one of both my grandfather's favorite movies.
Although not a movie, the swing dance scene in Laverne and Shirley between Laverne and Richie, is cute and funny.
Check out the dance scene in Steven Spielberg's 1941. It is a combined dance/fight scene and is fabulous!
Shag the movie, idlewild and malcom x had some great swing scenes @msmojo this list was still great. Def will be watching these retro pictures
I'm glad that Whitey's Lindy Hoppers got that rep they deserved here
They are so upbeat and happy.
Malcom X had good swing scene
Malcolm X 1992 should definitely be on this list.
More honorable mentions: The Other Side of Heaven (Anne Hathaway), Miss Annie Rooney (teenage Shirley Temple).
I love Swingers so much
Me too. It started small but over the years the world caught on.
Believe it or not Jerry Lewis had one of the greatest Swing/Jitterbug dance routines with Sheree North in “Living it Up”. If you haven’t seen it, look it up. He’s incredible!!
I agree!
Hellzapoppin should have taken every spot
My Dad would of loved this!
He could Dance! 🙂
Thanks for the Memories! 🙂
I'm just like my Dad!! ❤️
Swing dancing preceded the rock,'n'roll dancing in the 50s.Both seriously cool, and requiring considerable athleticism and dexterity from its proponents.
The dance scene in " 1941 " was hilarious.

Hi! As a student of Frankie Manning, I'm really pleased to see you acknowledge the Snowden/"Whitey" Dancers! Great selections here!
I'm glad A Day at the Races was included!. That dance scene was over the top!
Swing dance never gets old only the dancers.
Lindy champs look like they are levitating!
Loved this list, swing is so fun!!! 😊
My dad swing danced with my older sister at her wedding amazing style of dancing! 👏👏

Christina Aguilera’s candy man could have been an honorable mention! I know it’s a video, not a movie, but I still love the routine they did!!
Love this!
Hello 👋 how are you doing!!?
To bad you missed 1941 dance scene 😅Rockabilly scene, carry’s on the Jive(swing) movements 😮
SLUEFOOT from the film Daddy Long Legs, staring Leslie Caron and Fred Astaire. So cool college swing clubs have made it part of their repertoire.
Decent compilation. I would have preferred more spotlighting of the Black originators of Lindy Hop and other vernacular dances.
Outstanding! Loved it! 💘
I love the dance. What about "Grease" the dance contest and in "Steel Magnolias" the dancers at the wedding???
In the dance scene from A League of Their Own, two of the principal dancers are Madonna and Rosie O'Donnell.
Spielberg's "1941" has a fun swing dance/fight scene.
Swing Kids is such a good movie !!
i go to a swing dance club every week!! my partner is my brother, and our favorite moves are the ones where i get flipped 😆😆 i love this dance style
great video

The 40’s was a brilliant time for dance films 😃
Funny older the pic's the better the swinging 💃💃🕺🏻🕺🏻
Very very great fun list I like it a lot very very great job mis mojo one of my absolute favorite list ever 😊
I would add the jukebox scene in Asphalt Jungle - she is so wonderful in her solo dance and it is very much a part of the plot.
“Bounce me brother with a solid four” has always been my favorite.
The scene in the Centerville Ghost, 1944. Look it up. Crazy, man. Crazy.
Not one of the best, but still fun to watch. 1982 Cannery Row with Nick Nolte and Debra Winger
The dance contest in 1941 should be included in this list. Amazingly acrobatic dance moves and a huge fight at the same time!
This is so much fun..i wish kids were more into dance
Seems you missed the Nickolas Brothers, the best of all of them
They were 'flash', not swing.
Glad you highlighted the Cab Calloway number from 'Sensations of 1945': one of the most richly, variously entertaining and underrated musicals ever.
Pretty cool!
Heck of a dance sequence in "1941".
A few days late but the 1944 version of the Canterville Ghost with Margaret O Brien has an excellent amazing dance scene!
Jean Vellows (?), Spring Fever--there is a video on RUclips from her 90th or so birthday, where she did a reprise of this routine.
Okay, but you forgot to mention that Whitey’s Lindy Hoppers *INVENTED* the dance, and Frankie Manning and Willa Mae Ricker did the first “air steps” as Frankie called them. Such athletes! Great list, it was fun to watch and reminisce my dancing days.
Check out Stage Door Canteen--I think one of the male dancers was double-jointed at the hips!
Malcolm X! cannot believe you missed it!

That was Jewel McGowan with Dean Collins. And in one clip he was dancing with someone named Brennda Lee. ( I dont think it was THAT Brenda Lee)
I love watching swing
Where's The Great Gatsby? The scene where Fergie's "A Little Party Never Killed Nobody" was awesome!
I learned my first Lindy Hop from Frankie Manning (see him in Hellzapoppin with Whitey's Lindy Hoppers).
I like how they just make it look so casual like no big thing to it
Some other swing styles in film:
Blondie meets the boss 1939: Collegiate Shag
The Gentle Sex 1943: St Louis Shag
Start Cheering 1938 - Balboa
College Swing 1938 - Solo Charleston in a 3 Stooge-like comedy act with Bob Hope, George Burns and Ben Blue
"...executing an effective swing routine." Now that's what I call jive talkin'
The Lindy Hoppers! Never mentioned enough. Brendon Fraser's Blast From The Past is great. Didn't Judy Garland swing dance in a movie? Plus others mentioned in these comments. Obviously swing dancing is still much loved. 😊
Love it! What more be said?
!!1941!! How did you miss the swing dance scene in this movie?!!
I think you may have missed the greatest swing dance scene ever….The “Red Blues” scene from “Silk Stockings” featuring Cyd Charisse.
I don't like the 10th one chosen because I think to feel like an authentic swing dance it has to have the right music.
Hellsapoppin' would be a great remake! If done right!
dudes, of course I agree with your picks, but Whitey's Lindyhoppers are not "among the greatest swing dancers of all times", they are literally , personally the creators of Lindy Hop.
Yeah those Lindy Hoppers well deserve to be at number 1 but its great tbat the dance style is still so popular great fun
