Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

Time for a musical interlude. This is Fred Astaire singing a fabulous song by Lew Spence called That Face with lyrics by Alan Bergman. The song was written in the 1950s, and this performance is from a 1959 tv special, An Evening with Fred Astaire. 

The woman who dances with Fred Astaire in this is Barrie Chase. My favorite of his dance partners will always be Ginger Rogers, but this is very elegant dancing.  What a synthesis of talent this is: the composing, the writing, the singing, and the dancing. Fred Astaire was 60 years old at the time. This is really classy.
