Did you ever realize how elegant and gorgeous Ginger Rogers was? Did you know that Fred Astaire's tap dancing was only paralleled by Gene Kelly and Savion Glover? They are a sight to behold, elegant, timely , natural and during the 1930's Depression a relief from hardship. I am embarrassed that I never appreciated their talent before. I have learned to watch films with such a keener eye thanks to Austin Film Society Essential Cinemas and Chale Nafus' reviews.
Reed joined us today. He's back from Midland after spending his Mom's last days with her and tending to her funeral. He loves 1930's music, film and the era. He is our conduit to Texas. He has become our good dear friend. We come from different worlds, childhoods and histories. We speak the same language however. Real words that come unfiltered and from the heart. It is a gift to have made such a friend. And he teases the hell out of Abe! Who could ask for more?
