Girl Friday - 12/23/2011 - Vera-Ellen

Girl Friday this week is a gal I always associate with Christmas. She was a wonderful Dancer in the 1950's, and is probably best known for her major role in "White Christmas" where she appeared along side Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye.

Whenever I watch her dance, its very hard to concentrate on anything else in the scene. Its even hard to remember that there's anyone else on the stage - even her dance partner. I'm not a big "Dance Guy", but I can't help myself when it comes to Vera-Ellen. Below is my favorite number from White Christmas... You'll see what I mean.
