Christopher Walkin dancing

Last night's post on great dance scenes drew an interesting comment that  Christopher Walken started his career as a dancer, not an actor.

A tap dancer.

Oh ho, I said to myself. I'll bet Youtube has something on offer here, and it does indeed:



From the 1981 Steve Martin film "Pennies for Heaven". Three years after his entirely bad-ass role in The Deer Hunter.

My only comment is that you could make this video even more awesome, by a judicious application of cowbell ...

I am... not sure that I would want to see that scene re-done with him as he is these days...
