For the first week of November 2016 - we have chosen the interesting video uploaded on Nov. 02 - 2016 by our friend - Dr.240252 titled "1920 Titina by Bob Haring and his Orchestra".
We find his commentary and the visuals most fascinating because they give one a feeling of quickly finding oneself in the middle of the famous flappers/superstars - dancers, singers, movie stars - brave, adventuresome and great looking ladies of the Roaring Twenties' Golden Epoch of Jazz.
The popular tune "Titina" by a well known French composer Leo Daniderf who became famous because of it - was played and interpreted by just about any famous musical groups and vocalists. Dr.240252 uploaded another version of it several years ago as a vocal performance which accompanied Charlie Chaplin and Paulette Goddard - his - then - wife while both performed superbly a famous scene from equally famous movie "Modern Times". Charlie Chaplin sings his famous "Titina" and dances using his signature dance steps which resemble the "moonwalking" made famous by Michael Jackson.
After Charlie Chaplin's tumultuous, long term relationship with Paulette Goddard - a talented and a beautiful actress - cooled off and fizzled out - he subsequently married and divorced several more famous beauties until he settled down with Oona O'Neill Chaplin - his last wife who was - at least thirty years younger than he. She was a daughter of a well known American playwright Eugene O'Neill who was opposed to this marriage which lasted a long time and produced several talented offsprings.
At any rate - have a good first week of November 2016 - everybody! Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Don't forget to click here next Friday Nov. 11 - 16!
