It's a French film called" RENDEZ VOUS DE JUILLET",1949.This took place in Saint-Germain( Paris ),The dancers were called "rat de cave",they loved be bop music!After USA,France was the country of Jazz and Swing!
That's from the Dixieland revival in France that took place just after WW2. Swing had gone out of fashion and was replaced by bebop in the jazz world. The problem was that most swing players had no use for bebop so those that were unwilling to make the change started to bring Dixieland back. It only lasted for two or three years and then it also died out.
Merci pour le magnifique clip de video - De quel film cet abstrait est-il? What movie was this clip from? Thank you so much. A ce que je vois, nous avons rien invente puisque les gens dansaient deja si bien dans ce temps, Merci beaucoup, Lancelot

FYI, that's called "Lindy Hop"
What is the first song they are playing? Sounds like great Dixieland jazz.
Cajun people from Lousiana?
What movie is this from? I like it!
Hey harvey1954. Did you wonder why those limeys were speaking French?!
So, if they're Brits, how come they're speaking French? I suppose they might possibly be Canadian, but I'd guess (yes!) French....
