Tom answers this question on youtube:
syncopated
Tom, if you went to all the trouble to copy Astaire's great number from Damsel in Distress, and you can obviously really do it, why ... would you do it to His playback? Also, the cutting and fancy camera work completely detract from your skills. Can't you tell? There's a reason Astaire's was one continuous shot. It's more powerful that way. ...A hoofer

Thank you for your comment.I know I know...in order to get a film crew I had to let a director use it as his 1st directing piece.I totally agree that full length is ideal.A guy put music to it and we recorded all sound but at a cost of £2000 on studio fees and music the quality just wasn't good enough and I couldn't afford to do it again.For the purposes of getting work and investment interest we put the old track on.I hope hoofing lives on like Fred and Gene!
