Truly one of the highest forms of masculine beauty of the silver screen. RIP Mr.Montalban, we'll miss your tremendous class and beauty.

Lo amé siempre: guapísimo, elegante, derroche de clase, galanura, simpatía!

Wow... Ricardo Montalban & Rita Moreno PURE CLASS!

Wow! Lana turner and Rita Moreno must have been in dancing heaven, doing their thing with this icon of a man. Ricardo, always suave and cool. Bravo Ricardo!!

Nobody ever approached the talent of Mr. Montalban! He could do it all, and always did! Thanks for your comment!

Man, that Ricardo is smooth

Thank You! I agree with you that even Mr. Banderas couldn't come close to Ricardo! He was charm, elegance and talent personified! I'm grateful to hear from you, and there'll be more to follow!

This movie was the where I first discovered that Mr. Rourke could dance. I was floored. He is so smooth. Ricardo Montalban is brilliant.

I’ve practiced this dance so many times To this day, I’ve never seen anything more perfect symmetry in dancing ….

Ricardo Gonzalo Pedro Montalbán Merino, (Ciudad de México, 25 de noviembre de 1920 - Los Ángeles, California, 14 de enero de 2009), fue un actor mexicano de televisión, teatro, y cine.

Rita and Richard's dance in this scene was smooth and magic. I preferred their dance.

What a beautifully elegant man!

I'm thinking you're absolutely right! His was a talent that was unique, and burned for many years! Thanks for this kind and knowledgeable tribute to a genius!

Muchas gracias por su comentario! Lana era una mujer muy hermosa. Por favor, no olvide encantadora Rita Moreno! Estoy feliz de decir que todavía está con nosotros!

ayyyyy canijo Ricardo, que sensualidad al bailar tenias escondida!!!!! lo ame!!

Alberto Socarras, legendary cuban flute player makes a rare appearance as the flute player with the brazilian group.

Ricardo M, Rita M, and Lana T. all dancing. What an embarrassment of riches! I'd read that Lana was a big ballroom dancing enthusiast, so nice to get to see her show her talent on the dance floor. Thanks 4 posting.

There was a time people were wonderful,nice clothes, respectable and polite to eachother.Go back in time with this short film !!!

My favorite dance sequence of all time.

Wow, pure class I have a crush on Ms. Moreno

Ricardo Montablan was so smooth....oh my gosh

Hermoso, y con Rita Moreno otra grande, bendiciones 👐

I thought the pairing of Moreno and Montalban had more grace and heat.

I'm honored that you liked this clip so much! Mr. Montalban was so much more than anyone could ever have imagined! Thanks so much for your comment!

Lana Turner & Ricardo Montalban together, great chemistry!

Love Lana's blue skirt, so elegant. And Rita M. so pretty!

I'd simply die to have Rita's outfit!

He really was handsome & charismatic - even on Star Trek.

Just saw this film! She and Montalban were a wonderful pair! Great fun!

What! I never knew he danced! I am entranced! Yeppa! 😀😀😀😀😮😄

Thank you for your kind message! Class has certain distinctions; you hit the nail on the head! He was one of the CLASSIEST of all!

Ricardo Montalban Was A Treasure not matched today!! Antonio Bandaras comes close but no one could touch Mr. Roarke!!!

Ricardo would always be the "right partner!" I think both of "his" partners were perfect! Lana was the seasoned, foxy-lady, and lovely Rita the beautiful, youthful ingenue! Miss both Ricardo and Lana, but happy that Rita's still with us! Viva Puerto Rico!

Lindissimo filme...👋👋👋👋👋

¡ole ahí, Ricardo. Siempre vivo!

Ricardo Montalban the ultimate latin lover. Mr class from beginning to end. they just don't make Spanish guys the way they used to.. lol. thank you man for posting this stuff

@mundomejorsi No hay de que! Me siento enriquecido por sus comentarios maravillosos! Además, estoy de acuerdo en que eran algunas de las personas más bellas en el mundo! Muchas gracias por su mensaje!

Ricardo Montalban: La elegancia bailando!! Gracias!! :)

I miss this Time! No good Time for Woman, but so much Beauty and Elegance and High Class and so good Music.

Que guapo era Ricardo Montalban❤️😜😍😍😍😍 y bellisima nuestra muy querida Rita Moreno🌹🌹🌹🌹

@logik316 Mr. M was really built, and very strong! It's a miracle that he survived a terrible accident in 1951. He was thrown from his horse, and then trampled by another horse in the scene. He managed to deal with the pain until the early 90s. He had back surgery, and was never able to walk again. He continued acting, and doing voice-overs until his death. What an amazing performer! More to follow. Thanks so much for your comment.

I want that dress!!! And to dance with Ricardo Montalban. Sadly only one could possibly come true, but most likely none!

Have to say Lana pretty much ruled back in the day! Still, gotta give "Baby-Rita" her well-deserved props! Anyone wanna guess her "waist?" Think we're talkin' 17-19" at max! You, GloveGirl, are brilliant! Also, most say Ricardo was so devoted to his wife! Thanks so much for your learned observation! "Baby "Rita,"

E quando li vedi più questi film? Che meraviglia!,

Amazing Rita..proud to be puerto rico..

Viva Mexico !!Viva Ricardo Montalban !! First Class Movie star !!

So handsome so viril so charming... I ll always remember RICARDO that way..thanks

He was so flipping handsome.

I'm partial to Rita, always have been! I must say that in this clip Lana did very well, looks great and danced well! Either she didn't have "artist" approval, or she was just an easy-going lady. Otherwise she'd have had the sense to get little Rita booted from the set! Watched Rita a couple weeks back on a new "Kiddie" program, about Brooklyn gangsters. She played a grandmother, but still looked very svelte and sexy! She's now in her 80s! Que Viva Puerto Rico! Thanks again for writing!

Lovely Rita is 91 now, still a busy actress.

uf ! q belleza

Loura ou Morena ou outra.. o importante e deixar a musica tocar!❤❤❤

tenia años buscando esta pelicula po fin la encontre gracias de todo corazon

Never knew that 'Mr. Rourke' was a dancer as well as an actor. Thanks for posting.

@Furball2k What a fascinating observation! For any one man to have danced with these 2 beauties, almost simultaneously, is kind of a miracle! He was indeed, possibly the most talented, and interesting man in the world! Your comment and observations are so apropos! Thanks again for your mention!

I love Rita Moreno, this is she in her early years. She has not only contributed to the latin community in clearing stereotypes but in the entertainment industry as well.

Rita looks beautiful!!

Rita Moreno still kicking!

@necktieguy1 These three were amazing, talented and very easy on the eyes. I'm glad you liked this, and hopefully it will remain for a long time. Thank you!

@sagendare I agree with you! Rita was/is still unique in her beauty. For many years she held the best title as winner of: A Tony, An Oscar, A Grammy, and An Emmy! A tiny beauty from a tinier town in Puerto Rico, she holds the crown! Thanks so much for having noticed, and your kind comment!

Wow, you are not going to put "Lana Turner" down as she was one of the most beautiful actress in the world!

Me Too! She's amazing! Glad you liked.

Super

Pure class

Ricardo Montalbán joven era suuuuper apuesto y con tanto aplomo!!! El Chayanne de los años 40' 👌👌 😁

This was 1953 and he was still dancing after his 1951 crippling accident, but see his pre-'51 movies for the real thing.

Eleonor Parker dançou bem mas Rita Moreno tem a ginga que só os latinos tem! Fazer o quê né. é dom!!

Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!

oh how smooth rita and ricardo are when they dance.

Totally delicious 💐🌾🌺 What a delightful couple 🌸 Thank you for dancing 💃🏾 with us 🌜🌹🌛

I always thought Ricardo Montalban was so Handsome.

I just loved lana turner I didn't know she could dance wonderful

Smiles, Lana. Smiles, everyone. Smiles.

The whole scene is a knockout, but 2:47 - 2:52 -- just wow!

Besides, this movie's efforts are valid mainly because of dialogues in Portuguese (not all producers would take this into account). So, thanks for posting, varadero! And moshn2002, you are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!

El señor Ricardo Montalbán cumplió su FANTASÍA,n la isla 🏝️

Oh god if he asked me to dance I wouldn't be able to, my legs would be jelly. (Melt.)

Besides this movie, Latin Lovers (1953) Moreno 🇵🇷 and Montalbán 🇲🇽 worked together again in the episode High Rise of the Burt Reynolds TV series B. L. Stryker, 1990.

He looks like Latin sean Connery

@14magnolialovers Great to hear from you, and thanks! Given that this was a party one might understand that the guests were well-dressed. Given the entire movie, even during the daytime scenes, all the stars seemed to be beautifully attired. Sadly, it's been pretty much all downhill, sartorially speaking, since then. Once more, thanks for your comment!

class!

@TubeBarth Mexico meets Puerto Rico, and we're the real winners! Thanks so much for your comment!

Sooo smooth!!! Thar routine was not easy

I've always loved Rita, but here I'm thinking of her waist! Looks like about 16-18 inches to me! I think Lana learned how to dance after her career began with MGM. She did fine, but Rita was born dancing! After her departure from her native Puerto Rico to New York, she started studying dance at about 5-6 years of age. Her 1st teacher was Paco Cansino, uncle to Rita Hayworth. The rest is history. Great to hear from you, and thanks!

Ricardo is so so handsome, Miss him

"Latin Lovers" is supposed to air on TCM soon-- December 11th, 2015. Just noting that in case anyone wants to check out the movie this clip comes from.

hermosa

He was charming!

Ohhhh yes

... a flawless, timeless scene! >>>

This is adorable!

Y con Lana Turner, WOW q deferencia!

Talk about class and style! This is true dancing. Tell everyone you know to watch this. This is romance and sex combined with stylish footwork and grace. Thank for this post. Don't ever take it away.

This is awesome

The name of this movie is "Latin Lover" ("Meu Amor Brasileiro"), action took in Brazil.

Thanks so much for your vote of confidence, but I don't have the full movie. I've merely the few clips I've uploaded. I'm honestly sorry, but thanks for having written! Best wishes!

Wow!

Rita Moreno was 22 when she appeared in this film, in 1953. Her beauty was not yet in full bloom, as when she played Anita in WSS.

Love Rita Moreno. So sexy and smooth. And it came so naturally from within. Lana Turner practiced and tried. But still danced like a White person, stiff and mechanical. Reminds me of "Strictly Ballroom" when the White boy trained in dance studio tried to do paso doble in front of the Romani family.

I'd take Rita Moreno over Lana Turner
