Bob Fosse for the Day

Finally, we have Paula Abdul's music video for "Cold-Hearted Snake". It's a direct homage to a memorable sequence in All That Jazz and was directed by none other than David Fincher.

Here's Liza Minnelli, star of Fosse's Cabaret (a former Metro Classic) performing the song "All That Jazz" from Chicago at a 1988 concert.

Here's Verdon and Chita Rivera performing a couple of numbers from Chicago on the Mike Douglas show in the 70s. All That Jazz was inspired by Fosse's overwork-inspired heart attack suffered while simultaneously trying to edit his Lenny Bruce biopic Lenny and directing the original stage version of Chicago:

Here's an amazing Fosse performance as The Snake in the 1974 film of The Little Prince, a dance that might seem familiar to Michael Jackson fans. His singing is pretty good too.

Here's the trailer for Give a Girl a Break, which again teams Fosse with Debbie Reynolds, this time with Stanley Donen directing. I haven't seen it, but it looks pretty awesome. The trailers got some nice Fosse acting, and even singing!

Here's Fosse dancing in a former Metro Classic, Kiss Me Kate. He's the one that looks like he was choreographed by Bob Fosse instead of Hermes Pan (Fred Astaire's regular collaborator and the choreographer for the rest of this film). Oh, and it appears to be from a dubbed German TV broadcast.

Here's the director of this week's film, All That Jazz, dancing in The Affairs of Dobie Gillis with Barbara Ruick, Bobby Van and Debbie Reynolds.
