Big Rudy dances Giselle

This is the part that always makes me cry. This is Big Rudy @1980 dancing with Carla Fracci as Giselle. Second act, where Giselle is saving Rudy from Myrtha, queen of the vampires, if that's the right word, and her girls, but at the cost of her own soul. If that's the right word.

It's complicated.

This is actually a pretty famous recording--thought to be among the best Giselles ever performed.

Me? I have a hard time standing on my toes as long as these people do.
