Originally shot in Black and White, here is the colorized version of The Nicholas Brothers in one of the GREATEST dance sequences ever performed!

From the 1943 film, “Stormy Weather,” the clip also features Cab Calloway and Orchestra playing “Jumpin’ Jive.”

Childhood prodigies, The Nicholas Brothers don’t get nearly the recognition they deserve. They were truly astonishing to behold!

@Deglassco yes!! I think I rewound this scene four times the first time I watched it. The movie itself is incredible.

@StrawberrySabotage It’s very famous but the Nicholas Brothers don’t get the recognition they deserve relative to people like Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly. That’s why I posted it.

@Deglassco Criterion had a collection o their films posted of awhile back and I got to binge them, but it looks like they may not have it online any longer.
