Immortal Gene Kelly and outstanding editing 👌👍
I wish I could like this a thousand times. How much, artistry, vision and pure joy did that brilliant, gorgeous man bring to the movies and leave for us to marvel at? Bravo.
What a wonderful tribute to the amazing Gene Kelly. My favourite gentleman. Beautiful in every way. Super multi talented Actor, Dancer, Singer, Choreographer, and Director. Always missed but always remembered. Love you Gene. ♥️
Beautiful tribute to a beautiful super talented man.
Great video of the gorgeous Gene Kelly.
My all time favourite performer.
He danced with such joy, pleasure and happiness. His smile was absolutely beautiful.
Gene thanks for your wonderful legacy.
I miss you so much.
You could never ever be replaced you were unique.
Thank you for your wonderful contribution to the entertainment world.
Love you forever and will miss you forever.

No problem, this made my day! And I'm not ashamed to admit I've visited it numerous times since I first saw it yesterday. So, I have more coherant feedback to give you (since yesterday I was overcome with emotion about Gene Kelly and couldn't muster much). The way you've synced the dancing to the "I'm still standing" is exceptional. It feels like this song was made for him- and that he was actually dancing along with it. And I love the second half, where you show the softer side of him...
Love Gene Kelly! So dynamic, talented and handsome! I feel the same way you do when I watch him - so ecstatic and fascinated. The man was multi-talented, and I don't think ever got the credit he deserved. Wonderful work!
Lovely tribute! Thank you. I enjoyed every moment.
...your editing in that section is absolutely magnificent. The music and his smile- it is just absolutely wonderful. I probably even like the second half just a little bit better- especially since it brought tears to my eyes. It showed his softer side. I just absolutely loved this entire thing, it's a masterpiece :) x
This was quite simply superb.
Great video.!
Gene Kelly always made things look easy when he performed and he was so full of joy when he danced.
He was really enjoying himself. A wonderful smile.
Fantastic. Incredible. Truly amazing.
Gene Kelly will always be one of the greatest leading men in film. While I only recognized him from SInging in the Rain and Anchors Aweigh, I now have a real sense of his long, illustrious career.
Bravo. Just bravo.
Urgh my feed didn't show this video, so thank you for posting your bulletin otherwise I would've missed this. Amazing as ever, that's probably my favourite Elton John song and I was near screaming with happiness at the wonderful combination of him and Gene with brilliant timing. And then the second part was really beautiful and showed how varied an actor he was as well as a dancer. This completely made my day, thank you xx
This is in my favorites and I dance to this almost every day. :)
Your clips and editing matched Kelly's energy and grace. He really was a fantastic dancer. Another great video Monroe.
WoW!
Glad the second part fulfilled it's purpose!! I wanted it to be a surprise! Thank you for your lovely comment :) Best, Claudia xxx
Awesome Tribute !
Great Job, Claudia :-)
Thanks for sharing !
Irene.
This is a wonderful tribute to the greatest male dancer in the history of film, bar none! The skill & grace that Gene continued to show tapping dancing while wearing roller skates in "It's Always Fair Weather" (1955); leaves me speechless. Wonderful job!
And a second comment for the second half: majestic is the word. If there was a television tribute to Gene, your tribute should be the lead-in. Gorgeously timed throughout. How you used your opening and closing scenes with the choice of music was like Spielberg and Williams or Leone and Morricone....or Rogers and Hammerstein or Gilbert and Sullivan. Brilliant and one of your best!!!
Great work, Claudia! Love it! =)
What a great tribute to Gene! You brought tears to my eyes.
Very, very nicely done! Thank you for putting so much time and effort into this. Must have taken you hours. They don't make 'em like Kelly any more!
ooooo, Claudia! So wonderfully cheerful and uplifting in the first half. I think you hit the bull's eye with John Elton's song! Just brilliant and warming!!!!
AMAZING! Absolutely love this video :)
Wow! I absolutely love this. Thank you so much. It made me smile and brought tears to my eyes at the same time. It perfectly illustrates Gene's talents and his magic. I know every one of Gene's films almost by heart and still I was awestruck watching the variety and beauty anf joy of his movement as presented by you. The last part took me by surprise and is something really special, gave me goosebumps. wonderful.
Wish I could give a million thumbs up to auntsuzy. Gene Kelly's biggest and best fan.
I assure you it is. I've watched the film countless times since I was 14 years old and love the score by Craig Amstrong. He composed three pieces: Portuguese Love Theme, Glasgow Love Theme, and PM's Love Theme. It has been used in other things but it was originally composed by Armstrong for Love Actually.
Claudia, I'm excited by this amazing video!! I bet it was hard to make the editing. A hard work that finally transmits energy and excitement!! Elton John and the soundtrack of the movie Love Actually by Craig Armstrong are fantastic!! Known previously this soundtrack, and I fell in love with it. I'm glad you've used it! Great!
What a lovely job you did! I couldn't help but smile through most of your video, remembering so many of his movies. It took Gene Kelly to show those people that didn't already know that dancers are athletes as well as artists! Perfect music choices!
He was great at D'artagnan. Glad you enjoyed!
Wonderful tribute! Thank you for this ... made me smile. :)
THANK YOU! xxx
Thank you so much! xxx
Well your comment just made my day Bonnie, thank you so much! Glad you liked it! xx
Excellent editing as always! I love how you end the clip with Gene Kelly picking up a red rose from An American in Paris, it's my favorite scene ever! Thank you so much
Thank you so much Laura! Such a kind comment!
Nice job! Posted it over at Gene Kelly Fans as well...
truly a great man
Oh, I was so excited when July came because I knew there would be more fabulous videos form you, Claudia! And this does not disappoint. Kelly was such a magical performer... his dancing takes my breath away. This tribute is just perfect! Thanks for making me smile! xoxo
First to comment! And what a tribute to Gene! You captured his acrobatic energy, he made dancing so strong, poetic, imaginative, yet masculine and virile, reassuring the majority of men by the way! I'll always remember the moment I discovered Gene Kelly during TCM's tribute to Gene Kelly in march 2003, they played his films for an entire month. American in Paris was stunning, but it was truly On The Town that floored me! Then Singin' in the Rain came along and it was MAGIC! xoxo
Aww wonderful, so happy to hear that! Best wishes, Claudia x
Thank you ma'am. What is the name of the second suite music?
Very cheerful in the beginning and impressive in the end! Frank Sinatra said Gene was his dear friend who was very patient as a dance teacher and even danced worse so that Frank could look better next to him...Your tributes are so wonderful, Claudia, that I enjoy watching them even if I'm not a super fan of some stars. Keep making them! :D
Thank you lovely :) xxx
As ever, a superb tribute! Brilliant : ))))
This is so extraordinarily fantastic!! UGH! I can't get over how absolutely perfect and flawless and amazing this is! :D :D :D You are so amazing, and this is so amazing! Well done! BRAVO!!! :D I love this to pieces!! It made me smile like a little girl and shed tears... A beautiful tribute to Gene Kelly ... forever dancing! :D
Thanks Dina! I will keep making them. It's just about finding the time! x
Very nice video . Would have been a perfect song for Gene to have danced to....
Amazing, great editing perfet song, yes it's he got an energy, i loved him in as D'artagnan he was a perfect choice. you're really gifted.
This is a great great video and took an amazing amount of work. I've only recently gotten into creating videos and I've learned a lot by watching your work.
Thank you Daisy! :)
Aww really? That's good to know, glad I've helped :) Thank you for such a lovely comment xx
This is AMAZING tribute! I can't describe how lovely it is
Love it! What is the name of the montage score? 2nd half of the video.... thank you for this !
Nice editing. I hope that at some point you will add a clip of Genes' first dance partner-his brother Fred Kelly- check out the 1954 MGM musical" Deep in my Heart" if you want to view a great tap number!
Fantastic! What's the name of the second part of music used during this homage montage?
I' m not sure but the second music isn't from "Love actually" again perfect choice.
Beautiful ❤️ thank you Monroe Smile 😍. Gene oh my. Gene Kelly was one of a kind
There will never be another Gene Kelly. Gene l love you so.
Very well done. i love the Elton John song and the song you also picked after , your work would have been great for a award show. I think that Gene would have loved it. Great editing and great song choices. Keep up the great work.
lovely! I made one too!
Does anyone know what the title of the 2nd piece of music?
I do not own Xanadu sorry - but thank you!
@1:32-1:35 In the scene as the clown this part reminds me of Jackie Chan practicing the Snake Fist Kung-Fu.
