Arnaz is much better here than Ball . . . his every move is perfect, from his hands to his playing with his hat, to his dancing.

This is something that has been lost with the decline of vaudeville. One can look at movies or TV today, and though the actors hit their marks, they clearly lack this awareness.

(An exception to this can be found in many Hong Kong action films…which were based heavily on alumni from Peking Opera Schools).

Great post. Always fascinating to see a professional at the top of his game.
