Schön muß man sein (1951)



This is one of the great classic-era cancans on film.  It is from the 1951 German film, "Schön muß man sein".  The dancers are the Hiller Girls, longtime practicioners of the cancan.

The cancan starts at 48:00.  The video is in 480p but still pretty clear.

Affixing the Garter Tab


One of those oddball photos I have always liked.

Makes you wonder if the giant statue is a replica of what the young lady on the ladder is wearing.
