Dancing - Sophia Loren - 1954

 A new one to me.  The film is "Pellegrini d'amore" from 1954.  The "line" is a bit of a distraction but doesn't spoil things too much.

Dushechka

 A 1966 Soviet made-for-TV movie starring Lyudmila Kasatkina.  A brief but interesting cancan scene, particularly given the time and place.
