After 6 weeks away, here is a clip from the vintage era of Hollywood, involving no less than Joan Crawford and Clark Gable in the film Dancing Lady from 1933. In this scene Crawford is desperate to get into Clark Gable's dancing studios and will do almost anything to get picked. "So you like to dance?" says Gable. "More than anything else in the world" replies Crawford. "You wanna work with me? Then shake," says Gable (not as dubious as it sounds, although it's pre-Hayes code Hollywood). Then he sends her away with a firm slap of her backside that I just love and tells her to beat it. What's even more intriguing is that Joan actually thanks him for it and then departs, happy.
It's not the only clip I have of this film. You see, there is also a burlesque sequence at the beginning of the film that Joan is involved in before the police raid the theatre. This raid is what sees our Joan end up looking for work at Gable's dance studio. I have added the burlesque clip on the "Jean Parker in Two Alone" thread that I thought might suit all Hollywood pre-Hayes videos. You can check it out here:
