You  may have no idea how good Gene Kelly was at Dancing until you watch this.  Look closely and notice these are not even shoe skates.  They are the kind we had as a kid and came with a skate key.  Amazing.  I wonder how many times he fell before perfecting this routine. This is fantastic. If you've ever roller-skated,  you will find this impossible to believe!!!  This fellow is really amazing!! He starts tap dancing about half way through.    I loved looking at the dresses and hats of the ladies and all the old cars. Notice also that most of the ladies were wearing  gloves except at the end when folks were clapping.JUST REMARKABLE!  WHAT A TALENT, AND HE MAKES IT LOOK SO EASY.  This will bring up some of those old time memories for most of us. (Be sure to watch it full screen.)
