Those were the days!

This is such a fabulous musical! Oh my the talent was incredible ❤...... That Cyd and Fred boy can they 🩰 dance and sing!

Forgive me, but I've always felt that in this final scene Nanette Fabray should have been wearing the olive green gown and Cyd wearing the royal blue.

Es veu tan tan tan antic!!!

Always a worrier, Fred feared he was finished after the relative flops of 'Let's Dance' with Betty Hutton and particularly 'The Belle of New York', which he loved more than the public did. His last smash had been the reunion with Ginger in '49; now Gene Kelly was being cried up as Fred's successor, pushing the musical into more ambitious artistic territory. Comden and Green, who had written the screenplay of Kelly's 'Singin' in the Rain', presented Astaire with a coded 'don't give up' message. In 'The Band Wagon' he portrays a failed movie star trying to stage a comeback on Broadway. He is surrounded by people who had worked with Kelly- Minnelli, Charisse, Levant- as if producer Arthur Freed were trying to assure Fred that MGM still valued him. The real backstory makes the finale more moving and prophetic. Like Tony, Fred took heart from the faith his colleagues retained in a hoofer in his sixth decade. He deferred his retirement yet again, going on to make three more fine musicals and enjoy a second coming on TV. Meanwhile it was Kelly who was soon to flame out. 'The show must go on', and for Astaire it did... for another 30 years. But IMO 'The Band Wagon' is Minnelli's masterpiece and the greatest of all musical films.

I've always loved this tune and had to watch it again. Nanette Fabray lived to 97 years old! She was wonderful!

Unforgetable scene !

Women were so classy and beautiful back then

It’s true what they say the world will always be Full of entertainment.

Such a great ending to a great film. Remember when you watch this...they are singing to you...people from the past sadly no longer with us..entertaining you..singing and looking at you. What an ending

LOL at how much oomph Oscar Levant puts into the showbiz sentiment. Is this the man who said 'Scratch the phony tinsel of Hollywood and you'll find the real tinsel underneath'?

The group singing at 2.48 - I think they may be the writers, producer and other crew making an appearance in the film!

00:07 I was so impressed that I had goose bumps.

Cyd most beautiful, talented, and athletic dancer!

Great soundtrack for incredible outstanding Technicolor historical rendering! Bravo from Paris France. Emmanuel

The Bandwagon was a great movie with a great cast, and as the saying goes we will never see their liked again....Frank

What scenes are missing in the Kino restored version?

Cyd Charisse was perfection

Spectacular!

Music with a lot of class, only recently that I discovered Fred Astaire, and he is my fav.

The only one left alive in 2017 is Nanette Fabray

I truly miss the old MGM musicals with Mario Lanza, Gordon Mac Rae, Howard Keel. Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly Jane Powell and a cast of hundreds .I guess these wonderful movies and their talented stars may never be repeated.

Americans lightness and brilliance did wonders when it comes to musicals in the gold Hollywood era. Now they tried to make it work again with la la land movie but it lack magic and talent, that's why i wont go to see it. So.. when i heard about how many Oscar nominations earned, i kind of felt this is what is happening when nothing better comes along. I wonder ..we really did make progress or everything is pretty much flat, ordinary and predictable in movies? Hollywood does not have any clue, no taste, they are like a bunch of clowns without the talent. Ask to Robert Redford what it is his opinion about Hollywood and you hear the TRUTH. Movies are way to dumb, way too violent to be enjoyable to watch.Often is about serial killers, cops, the CIA or the FBI. Or..it is about the weirdest things ever like aliens come to earth to kill us, monstrous creatures or animals. That's so childish. How about put the gov out of the way and getting some interesting HUMAN stories about REAL people? Not much creativity is left in this world. Sadly, this is the truth.

Ontem revi o filme "Roda da Fortuna" (The band wagon) . Fico grato àqueles que desenvolveram as novas formas de entretenimento doméstico as quais nos proporcionam rever os maravilhosos filmes produzidos em Hollywood, especialmente os musicais que tanto gosto.

Hurrah!

Ranciere has brought me here

Metro Goldwyn Mayer had the greatest musicals and "more stars than there are in the heavens" You can always tell an MGM musical. This was a awesome ending.

Wonderful. There is no talent in Hollywood today when you compare it to this.

The run up to the finale is also the finale.

Probably my favorite ending of any musical, aside from Holiday Inn. Perfection.

The Band Wagon is coming to the New York Stage this fall.

Let's all get aboard! We're in for special treat with one of the greatest musical movies ever-made - The Band Wagon.The finale number of Schwartz / Dietz's well-written song "That's Entertainment" is one of the most memorable highlights in this 1953 MGM's stupendous movie.This Vincente Minnelli's chef-d'oeuvre ( notably the production numbers,the costume designs,the musical score,and the story ) is truly-entertaining,exceptionally-fascinating,aesthetically-stunning,and extremely-haunting
