    • Trivia
      This marked the premiere screening of Ray Bolger's deleted dance routine from The Wizard of Oz (1939), an occasion that later inspired the making of That's Entertainment! III (1994), which was comprised of many scenes that had been deleted from their respective release prints.
    • Quotes

      Title Card: This film is dedicated to all the dancers... especially those who devoted their lives to the development of their art long before there was a motion picture camera.

    a great history of dancing in the movies!

    this film is a must see for lovers of musicals. It's amazing how far film has come in such a short time. Great scenes from the best of the MGM musicals with narration from some of the greatest stars of those movies. Very informative and gives you a good overview of how the times affected the types of movies that were made. Wonderful music! Incredible dancing! Great fun!
