In the early twentieth century, American ragtime and the Parisian tango fuelled a dancing craze in Britain. Public ballrooms were built throughout the country, providing a glamorous setting for dancing. The new English style, defined in the 1920s and followed by the films of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers in the 1930s, ensured that ballroom dancing continued to be the most popular British pastime until the 1960s, rivalled only by cinema. Ballroom: A People's History of Dancing (Reaktion, 2022) by Dr. Hilary French explores the vibrant history of ballroom and Latin dancing: the dances, lavish venues, competitions and influential instructors. It also traces the decline of couple dancing and its resurgence in recent years with the hugely popular TV shows Strictly Come Dancing and Dancing with the Stars. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose forthcoming book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Abbiamo approfittato dell'ultima avventura cinematografica di Christian De Sica e Lillo per farci raccontare di tutto: da Alberto Sordi a Tony Effe, da Totò a Paolo Calabresi («la nostra Ginger Rogers»), dai primi baci ai cinepanettoni, senza dimenticare l'immancabile “vecchia che cade”.Christian Agata, il detective più famoso d'Italia (anzi, d'Europa, sostiene lui), viene invitato in un castello in Val d'Aosta a fare da testimonial per il gioco da tavolo Crime Castle. Quando una valanga isola il castello e spunta un cadavere, il soggiorno si trasforma in un vero giallo: nel solco della comedy investigativa (stile Knives Out) e della classica cena con delitto, toccherà a Christian risolvere il mistero…

Send us a text(Had a great time on my road trip, got back – and I've been sick ever since. This year has been one endless struggle bus ride, and there's room for more, so hop on :)Materialists seems to be a polarizing movie that isn't quite a romcom, isn't quite a straight up romantic drama, while ending happily, making it one of the most interesting hybrid stories I've seen in a while. Dakota Johnson is incredible as Lucy, a smart but cynical matchmaker who treats her clients as commodities – and threatens to do the same with her ex-boyfriend until she realizes his love for her survived their terrible break up, and her honest admission that she's somewhat shallow when it comes to choosing romantic partners. When she finally decides to make a romantic choice that isn't based on statistics, shrewd calculations or dating math but what's in her heart, that's when her life turns around. And that's what makes this movie deeply romantic to me.https://www.confessionsofaclosetromantic.comI change my mind about this trailer – it captures the smart stylish vibe but not nearly all of the ups and downs in mood that make this such a fascinating film.Celine Song talked about her inspiration for writing and directing Materialists in a fascinating interview on BBC World Service.Gold Diggers of 1933 (full movie) is currently on YouTube! Oh and I forgot to mention – it stars a young Ginger Rogers too! The best hour and a half you will spend this week.The trailer for Gentlemen Prefer Blondes doesn't tell you much, but what's clear is this Technicolor 1950s movie about two show-stopping showgirls, one in it for love and the other mostly for the diamonds, is such a treat.How to Marry a Millionaire stars Lauren Bacall, Betty Grable and Marilyn Monroe as a stunning trio of broke but gorgeous roommates who we're supposed to believe have trouble landing super solvent guys who will love and dote on them.I love going down the rabbit hole of the related and gendered variations on the gold digger trope.Support the showIf you enjoyed this episode, please click share in your podcast app and tell your friends!

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! What if the greatest performers in history never really left the stage? At Belleville, Illinois' Haunted Lincoln Theater, some say that's exactly what's happening. Once a glittering landmark for vaudeville and stage magic, the Lincoln Theater hosted legends like Harry Houdini, Ginger Rogers, and The Marx Brothers. But long after the final curtain call, something strange began to happen. Staff and visitors alike began to report eerie sounds, phantom footsteps, cold spots—and full apparitions of long-dead performers. And then came the EVP. A voice, clear and chilling, captured saying just two words: “Time for magic.” Many believe it was Houdini himself, still performing decades after death. In this haunting episode of The Grave Talks, we sit down with renowned paranormal investigator Dale Kaczmarek, who has explored the Lincoln Theater's paranormal activity in depth. He shares real accounts, chilling recordings, and the unnerving energy that still clings to the theater's historic walls. This isn't just another haunted location—it's a living, breathing performance space where the past refuses to take a bow. Dale discusses his encounters with intelligent hauntings, residual energy, and the possibility that the spiritual echo of Houdini still commands attention from beyond the grave. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, the haunted Lincoln Theater will make you question what it means for a soul to leave the stage… or stay behind, waiting for the lights to rise. Is it history? Or is it still happening? Find out in this spine-tingling exploration of one of America's most haunted theaters.

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of racism, sexual assault, false imprisonment. We've got a new name, a new season, and a new series! First up, we talk about our name change with a tagline you may be familiar with. Then, we kick off a new series with a trip through ALL the decades - if the year ends in 5, we're watching a movie from it! We kick things off with a frothy, zippy, real humdinger of a musical with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers doing their thing. Remarkably, this movie is incredibly wholesome and unproblematic, its most offensive thing being a wacky Italian accent that angered Mussolini - in short, a net benefit. We kick off our Decades Grab Bag with 1935's Top Hat on Have a Good Movie! You can email us with feedback at macintoshandmaud@gmail.com, or you can connect with us on BlueSky!

And we're going to make it stick in your mind with a super cool Memory Palace!"Grandpa Bill says: "Alright, close your eyes (not if you're driving, folks!), and let's imagine our Memory Palace. We're going to call it the 'Harmonious Health Hall'. Picture it: a grand, beautiful hall, maybe with stained-glass windows shimmering with musical notes, and the air just hums with good vibes. This is where we'll store the secrets to music's health benefits.Grandpa Bill: Now, we're going to use a special trick called PAO – Person, Action, Object. It's like a mini-story for each benefit, making it super sticky. Here are three key benefits we'll place in our Harmonious Health Hall:Memory Palace Location: Imagine this right at the entrance of our Harmonious Health Hall.PAO:Grandpa Bill's Story: "As you step into our Harmonious Health Hall, there's Elvis Presley, cool as a cucumber, crooning a gentle lullaby. He's standing next to a Giant Soothing Lavender Lamp, just glowing with peace. That's right, folks, music, especially choir singing and dancing, helps reduce stress and anxiety! It's like Elvis himself is telling your worries to 'Return to Sender'!"Memory Palace Location: In the center of the Harmonious Health Hall, perhaps on a grand dance floor.PAO:Grandpa Bill's Story: "Now, look straight ahead into the heart of our hall. Who do you see? It's Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, absolutely twirling with pure joy under a magnificent, Giant Sparkling Disco Ball! They're having a blast, laughing, totally connected. This reminds us that music, especially dancing and singing in a choir, boosts your mood and strengthens social connections! Get up and move with your fellow Silver Streakers!"Memory Palace Location: At the far end of the Harmonious Health Hall, near a stage or grand piano.PAO:Grandpa Bill's Story: "Walk with me now to the other end of the hall, near the stage. And who's up there? None other than Albert Einstein, with a big smile, conducting an invisible orchestra with incredible focus! Next to him is a Glowing Brain-Shaped Jigsaw Puzzle, with all the pieces perfectly fitting together. That's music, folks! Engaging with music, whether it's learning an instrument, singing, or dancing, actually enhances your cognitive function and sharpens your memory! Keep those brain cells boogieing!"Grandpa Bill: "There you have it, my magnificent Memory Palace mavens! Elvis soothing your stress, Fred and Ginger twirling with joy and connection, and Einstein conducting your brilliant brain!

“The Tragic Life of Classic Cinema Star Gail Russell” (082) - 4/07/2025 Hollywood legend has it that ethereal beauty GAIL RUSSELL was discovered after a Paramount Studios talent manager picked up two hitchhiking Santa Monica high school boys who told him all about the "Hedy Lamarr of Santa Monica High School." Allegedly, he then tracked down Russell at school and arranged for a screen test. The rest, as they say, is Hollywood history. If only it had been that easy. Russell, who was painfully shy and had no interest in a career as an actress was pushed in front of the camera by her ambitious mother and the executives at Paramount who saw dollar signs in her startling blue eyes.

A terrific dramedy (and not a musical, ironically) featuring an all-star cast about a group of aspiring actresses looking to make it on Broadway.  Starring Katharine Hepburn, Ginger Rogers, Adolphe Menjou, Lucille Ball, Eve Arden, Gail Patrick, Constance Collier and Andrea Leeds.

Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire blew the roof off in Top Hat, while Charles Laughton and Clark Gable were showered with critical acclaim for their parts in Frank Lloyd's naval epic Mutiny on the Bounty.

For Ayodele Casel tap dancing is magic. As a young high school student, she dreamed of one day dancing like Ginger Rogers as she recreated Ginger's moves in her bedroom But it wasn't until Ayodele Casel was a sophomore at the NYU Tisch School of the Arts that she took her first tap dancing class. That was her entry point into the art form which would eventually lead to a more than 20 year career as a professional tap dancer. As a Black and Puerto Rican woman, Ayodele Casel didn't see herself reflected in the mainstream image of tap dancers because the form has been largely whitewashed through systematic racism. For that reason, she works tirelessly to remind her audiences that tap is deeply rooted in Black art and culture.In this episode of “How I Made It” Ayodele takes us through her tap journey, and reclaims tap dancing as a Black art form.Follow us on TikTok and YouTube. Subscribe to our newsletter by going to the top of our homepage. This episode originally aired in 2021.

Paranormal and private investigator, writer, and filmmaker Margie Kay, along with professional historic property researcher Violet Wisdom, explained how to research a house to determine whether it's haunted and who is doing the haunting.Kay shared that her involvement in paranormal research began when she was a child, having experienced paranormal events such as seeing a disembodied head at 11. This sparked her interest, leading her to study the subject. Her work later expanded into helping law enforcement and private investigators solve missing persons and homicide cases using remote viewing. One significant case involved a young girl who had been kidnapped, where Kay used her skills to locate the girl.In her practice, Kay uses remote viewing to assess potentially haunted locations, often finding that spirits are aware of her arrival and sometimes leave before she physically arrives. She discussed the importance of understanding the nature of the spirits present, whether human or non-human and emphasized the need for a psychic on a paranormal investigation team to communicate with spirits. She also shared personal experiences, such as seeing her deceased grandmother's spirit in her favorite spot. Kay revealed that most haunted houses are occupied by spirits of former residents, especially those attached to the home. However, she noted that negative or evil spirits can also cause distress and make situations more challenging, as seen in some of her cases.Wisdom recounted how she and her best friend, both history enthusiasts, started a historic property research business 15 years ago. She emphasized that old houses retain a sense of energy from past inhabitants and described how architectural styles of the past were expressions of historical and cultural significance rather than just contemporary trends. She has researched a wide range of properties, including modern ones, noting that every piece of land holds a story, given the long history of human habitation in the United States.Wisdom recounted her work on a Springfield house for the book, How to Research a Haunted House, where she uncovered intriguing connections between past residents and present experiences. She described the research methods she employs, including library archives, online resources, newspapers, and interviews with locals. Wisdom recalled fascinating cases, such as investigating the home where Ginger Rogers was born, and spoke about the importance of preserving personal histories. She attributed hauntings to residual energy and recounted experiences of paranormal activity in various buildings she has researched. While intrigued by hauntings, she expressed reluctance about living in a notoriously haunted house, especially one with negative energy.------------------------------------------Open Lines followed in the latter half of the program. Shawn from Washington expressed concerns about the recent crash between American Airlines Flight 5342 and an Army Black Hawk helicopter. He suggested it might have been deliberate. David from Oklahoma discussed the mark of the beast, referencing the New Testament books of John and Revelation. He elaborated on the spiritual significance of the number 666 and the connection between humans and stars. Ruth from Maryland shared a historical story about the "Bloody Oyster Wars" between Maryland and Virginia. She explained the conflict between Maryland and Virginia over the Potomac River and oyster overfishing and described the creation of the Maryland oyster navy and the incidents that led to the end of the wars.

Lexy, Garret, and Nicole discuss Wicked and how much of society still operates like status in high school. We rave about the movie from the performances, to the costumes, to the cinematography, and the utter triumph Jon Chu created. The social issues in the movie are presented through the lens of high school and the movie's most popular song, Popular, which is resonant to the way we seek status in our adult lives. Nicole recommends a Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers classic The Gay Divorcee. Lexy recommends the movie podcast Guilty Pleasures. Garret recommends the original Oz books.

Prepare to get "potted" because we're discussing not just any murder, but a good murder in Albert Ray's confusing as all get-out 1932 murder mystery comedy The Thirteenth Guest! Tagging in for the conversation is Amanda Jane Stern, the co-writer/star of the new psychosexual thriller Perfectly Good Moment. Join us as we try to figure out just what the hell is going on in this convoluted little film, which features an early Ginger Rogers performance (in a dual role, no less!). From electrified telephones to mysterious rooms without trap doors, there's just too much crammed into this film's extremely brief 69-minute runtime for it to make any kind of sense. Plus: an absolutely horrifying colorized version of the film, a brother and his "roommate," and souls that look like the inside of vinegar bottles. Oh, and who in the hell is the titular thirteenth guest??? Questions? Comments? Snark?

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! The Haunted Lincoln Theatre in Belleville, Illinois, has been the stage for some of the most iconic performers in history. The Marx Brothers, Ginger Rogers, Harry Houdini and more. Long after the stage shows ended, the Lincoln fell onto hard times, suffering through multiple closures and re-openings. Through it all, did some of the performers never leave? Do the ghosts of some of history's top performers still grace the stage of the Haunted Lincoln Theatre? Some claim to have seen and heard the ghost of Houdini himself, saying it was time for “magic” in a shocking EVP. Today, we discuss the haunted world of the Lincoln Theatre and how the ghosts are captured there with paranormal investigator Dale Kaczmarek. This is Part Two of our conversation.
