Eclectic Edge Ensemble

Over this holiday season I was fortunate enough to really sit down and watch "White Christmas." I have now discovered my new favorite dancer Vera Ellen. I could not take my eyes off of her during the movie, and was so impressed by her technique and incredible performance skills. There were many parts I needed to rewind and pick my jaw off of the ground. Nothing like diving down a staircase head first, hoping that your partners are there to catch you...Wow!

I will now be adding her other musicals to my Netflix list. Here is her filmography list:

• Wonder Man (1945)
• The Kid from Brooklyn (1946)
• Three Little Girls in Blue (1946)
• Carnival in Costa Rica (1947)
• Words and Music (1948)
• Love Happy (1949)
• On the Town (1949)
• Three Little Words (1950)
• Happy Go Lovely (1951)
• The Belle of New York (1952)
• Call Me Madam (1953)
• Big Leaguer (1953)
• White Christmas (1954)
• Let's Be Happy (1957)

Now enjoy this fun clip from "White Christmas."

Happy New Year!
