They really should have made more films together.

I love Brigadoon...glorious music, top flight dancing by 2 beauties. Great pictures here.
"It's Brigadoon! It's bloody Brigadoon!"
You actress worshippers can identify with the top image.
All glorious movies, but I have a special soft spot for Brigadoon. Such a silly, wonderful film.
John T -- me too.
Never a fan of Tula Finklea (birth name). Thought she was all precision, no heart. Then she proved it as a staunch Conservative supporter of Goldwater and Nixon.
There is no one like these 2.
The chemistry was off the charts. What a duo.
THE BAND WAGON might be her best. Sorry Gene Kelly!
But IT'S ALWAYS FAIR WEATHER is extremely underrated.
"Singin' in the Rain" is so good that it still has the same impact than when it was released. It doesn't feel old by any means.
I just saw It's Always Fair Weather for the first time (it was on TCM Monday). Cute!
They made a sexy couple - you can find a dance scene that was deleted from "It's Always Fair Weather' on you tube.
I'm a big fan of Cyd. That infamous Oscar opening number back in the 1980's with Snow White included a brief little dance by Cyd Charisse, and she looked fabulous. Also, Janet Jackson got Cyd to do a small part in one of her music videos. Ms.Charisse was so much a part of that wonderful movie-making in the 1950's. Love her!!!
