Every Saturday night, PBS Channel 13 shows a classic movie at 9:00 pm. In the opening credits of the show "Reel 13", they show various clips of movies. Does anyone know what movie the clip is from that has the woman dancing and behind her is a man (is he a sailor) dancing?
ETA: I found a clip. It's the woman in the blue dress at 0:15.

Is it Jane Powell in Easter Parade?
EDIT: I mean, Royal Wedding

Posted: 4/2/12 at 4:05pmGod, that scene looks familiar. I haven't seen Easter Parade for ages and never saw Royal Wedding. But it doesn't look like Jane Powell.

Posted: 4/2/12 at 7:27pmYes, madbrian, it's Jane Powell in "Royal Wedding" dancing to "I Left My Hat in Haiti." It's a big production number with her and Fred Astaire.

Only because he got here first
My brother used to be the one who edited the Reel 13 commercials as well as other stuff for the station

"I knew Besty would know the answer!"
Um, hello! I got it right! I might have even pulled muscle trying to pat myself on the back for getting that one.
