ON YOUR TOES (1939) is MORE important than THE RED SHOES (1948) ON YOUR TOES (1939) starring Vera Zorina (1917 - 2003) and Eddie Albert (doing the Gene Kelly part in SLAUGHTER ON 10th AVENUE ballet) is the most important ballet movie ever made. More important than the excellent, more famous movie titled THE RED SHOES (1948) starring Moira Shearer.

It's more important, better than the very good, justifiably honored RED SHOES (1948) movie.
Nobody interested in ballet in the movies can ignore ON YOUR TOES (1939) or why it was "disappeared" in 1939, the most important year in Hollywood movie history! Zorina was a Berlin, Germany born ballet dancer (big problem in Hollywood in 1939), and was married to George Ballanchine until 1946 when he married Maria Tallchief.
She married Goddard Lieberson (head of Columbia Records), had two sons with him, stayed married until his death in 1977.
She went on to be the head of an important ballet company in Norway.
She died in 2003 at the age of 86 of "unknown causes." She was a brilliant stage actress who originated the stage role in the 1930's of I MARRIED AN ANGEL (Jeanette MacDonald was the star of the movie version).
Her guileless style of acting shows up brilliantly in ON YOUR TOES (1939).
See it, get it, pay for it (RobertsVideos.Com isn't cheap!).
Thank you!
