Fanvid: "Happiness" [Astaire/Rogers Films]

[icepixie]

Fred and Ginger dancing make me happy. This song makes me happy. Put them together, and you have joy squared! I hope it makes you happy too.

I was sent this way by Cofax7 as I've just finished a marathon re-watch of most of their movies. This Vid is utterly and absolutely amazing. Frame by frame is perfectly done, you've really accomplished something awesome and then some. Thank you (albeit a few years late) for your hard work putting this together.

As for Fred and Ginger, they were something wonderful. They've been making my life better for just about all of my life, and a vid like this keeps the meaning of that joy up front in my heart.

It is indeed. By the way, very good use of the Smoke Gets in Your Eyes routine in your vid. They were in top form for that movie. :)

Thank you! Roberta is my favorite of their movies for sheer awesomeness of the dancing.

They really were amazing in that movie, something about how they expressed the energy of the dance that brings me back to watch again and again.
