Classic Movies Posted by KC on May 5, 2011
In this 1971 clip from Here's Lucy, 60-year-old Ginger Rogers shows she still has it as she dances a lively Charleston with Lucille Ball and Lucie Arnez. The also 60-year-old Ball does pretty well herself. That crack she makes about Rogers winning the Texas state Charleston co read more

GlamAmor Posted by on Nov 25, 2010
Lately I've really been enjoying the comfort of movies from the 1930s. It's no wonder. That was another time in our nation's history when we struggled through an economic crisis--in their case, the Great Depression--and yet there was still so much optimism reflected in the movies. read more
She’s a nice girl!
True Classics Posted by Brandie on Nov 10, 2010
I’ve made no secret of my admiration for Ginger Rogers in the past–she’s an underrated comedienne, relegated in the minds of most moviegoers to a permanent place waltzing at Fred Astaire’s side. And while there is no shortage of entertainment to be drawn from the Fred and Gin read more

Here's Ginger Rogers in one of her first starring roles, singing How I Wish I Could Sing a Love Song with Jack Oakie in The Sap From Syracuse (1930).
