A Day at the Races (1937) Lindy Hop Scene

A colourised presentation of the famous 1937 Lindy Hop scene from A Day at the Races. The routine, danced by Whitey's Lindy Hoppers to 'All God's Chillun Got Rhythm', shows the earlier, slightly more upright 1930s Savoy style with big smiles and bold group choreography. Colourisation is a modern addition, so enjoy it as a visual aid rather than a restoration. Look at the footwork in the quick sections and the confident partner connection, which is clear even at pace.
