One of only two films in which Fred Astaire and 'Gene Kelly' danced together. The other was _'Zeigfield Follies' (1946)_ . During the clip from "Kiss Me Kate" (1953), Gene Kelly names Ann Miller and Tommy Rall, Bob Fosse and Carol Haney, and Bobby Van, but does not give the name of Van's dancing partner, who was incidentally his second wife, Jeanne Coyne. Kelly was still saddened by her death from leukemia three years earlier.
