The Nicholas Brothers
Featuring an introduction by film historian Donald Bogle and programmer Bruce Goldstein Nobody danced like the Nicholas Brothers. Among the most electrifying performers the screen has ever seen, Fayard and Harold Nicholas combined elegant tap with breathtaking acrobatics in astoundingly innovative routines that they executed with seemingly effortless grace, easily becoming the highlight of any film they appeared in. This trio of splashy Twentieth Century-Fox musicals contains some of the duo’s most extraordinary numbers, including the celebrated staircase routine from Stormy Weather that Fred Astaire hailed as the greatest dance sequence ever captured on film.
