1940's and 1950's movie stars set to 1970's music! Who'd of "thunk it?"

And for all you who never heard of Rita Hayworth - one of the most beautiful women to ever grace the silver screen. But what a very tragic end to the fairytale - descending into the long goodbye of Alzheimer's.

She was one of a kind for sure.

I love her. My mom always watched vintage Hollywood films so I grew up on them. I watched Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye in White Christmas just last night. Best movies, ever.

always thought she was soo hot for the day

Loved it!!!!

FYI

Rita Hayworth was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1918 as Margarita Carmen Cansino, the oldest child of two dancers, Eduardo Cansino, Sr., from Castilleja de la Cuesta, a little town near Seville, Spain,[3] and Volga Hayworth, an American of Irish-English descent who had performed with the Ziegfeld Follies.

Eduardo partnered with his daughter to form "The Dancing Cansinos". Since under California law, Margarita was too young to work in nightclubs and bars, her father took her with him to work across the border in Tijuana, Mexico. In the early 1930s, it was a popular tourist spot for people from Los Angeles.[4] Due to her working, Cansino never graduated from high school; she completed ninth grade at Hamilton High in Los Angeles.

Hayworth's alcoholism hid symptoms of what was eventually understood to be Alzheimer's disease. "For several years in the 1970s, she had been misdiagnosed as an alcoholic."[48] "It was the outbursts," said her daughter, "She'd fly into a rage. I can't tell you. I thought it was alcoholism-alcoholic dementia. We all thought that. The papers picked that up, of course. You can't imagine the relief just in getting a diagnosis. We had a name at last, Alzheimer's! Of course, that didn't really come until the last seven or eight years. She wasn't diagnosed as having Alzheimer's until 1980. There were two decades of hell before that."

The BEST!
This is just CRAZY GOOD.

Gene Kelly, Fred, Ginger...THAT was MAGIC!
Thanks for sharing.

Jack,

Thanks for finding/sharing this one. Although people rave about Fred and Ginger (and rightfully so) I think that Fred and Rita were way hotter; he knew how to show off her sexyness even within the confines of the "morality" of their era. The sound editor who put that together did an awesome job, BTW.
