"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

Happy Feet Friday
The lovely and talented Vera-Ellen struts her stuff in this dance number (sorry, I don't know the movie it's from; if there are any fans of musicals out there, kindly help me out).
From her very first movie in 1945, 'Wonder Man' with Kaye and Mayo. But she'd been on Broadway since 1939. The whole scene begins with a song, 'So In Love', her voice is dubbed by June Hutton: https://youtu.be/tkF4n9wzBbs
I didn't know but enjoyed finding these early bits of her story. Her real singing voice is surprising, earthy and not at all angelic as I might have imagined. I'm enjoying listening to her talk and sing: https://youtu.be/lhVe1qFXn_8

Thanks, Bruce. I figured you'd probably know.
