      Dancer before he was an actor -- recognized for it before he ever went into acting. Plus a boxer and baseball player!

      RIGHT!!!!!
      Have you scene the UA-cam clips of him doing the Tango???!!! Just came across them the other day. If you haven't, do a search from George Raft Tango...
      When you think about it, all the actors back then (,male and female) had to be able to sing, dance, act and do a fair amount of stunt work. Many actors today can barely act let alone do/sustain a good foreign accent or actually sing or dance...

    If you want your home to burn down with the heat of passion watch George Raft and Carole Lombard dance to "Bolero" in 1934.

    He was an excellent dancer!! I never heard much about him, only Astaire and Kelly . But, I love Rafts dance moves and style. He was sexy!!

    George was his own worse enemy he turned down some of the greatest roles of his time. It would be so interesting if we could see how just one would have worked out if he took the role.

    Bet you Fred was envious of George’s masculine gracefulness

      Fred helped start his film career by praising him to a studio executive after seeing him at a nightclub.

    He was a better dancer than actor.

    Raft is a great dancer....he should give up his life of crime.
