Easter Parade

The first Irving Berlin song for Judy Garland, as waitress-showgirl Hannah, who doesn't realize Fred Astaire really is the headliner Don Hewes, recently jilted and out to prove he can make any girl a star, early in Easter Parade, 1948, from MGM and Arthur Freed.

Fred Astaire and Judy Garland (as the new team "Brown and Hewes") perform the Irving Berlin tune A Couple Of Swells, dressed as bums, in the hit musical Easter Parade, 1948, produced by Arthur Freed.

Ann Miller (as "Nadine Gale," out to prove herself as a Ziegfeld solo act, sans Fred Astaire) in a typically blinding performance of the Irving Berlin tune Shakin' the Blues Away, choreographed by Robert Alton, in Easter Parade, 1948.

When his partner leaves him, a vaudeville star trains an untried performer to take her place in Easter Parade (1948) starring Judy Garland & Fred Astaire.
