| Description: | "Pathetone now has pleasure in presenting - The BIG APPLE! Demonstrated by the famous American Dancing Stars EARL & JOSEPHINE LEACH". London Various shots of Earl and Josephine Leach (he in white tie and tails, she in a long dance frock) dancing the Big Apple - a major dance craze of the day. The routine includes some classic Big Apple steps - I spotted truckin' and variations of the side Charleston and side by side Charleston. Great music - I think it is just called 'The Big Apple'. Note: the Big Apple was originally danced by a group of people in a circle, and was an offshoot of the Lindy Hop dance style. | |
