Video of the Week: “Bayou”

Posted by Marisa on

EDITOR’S NOTE 05/08/13:  Account has been deleted. Sorry about that folks!

Our video this week is another version of Ulysses shaking what his mother gave him in Harold Daniels‘ Bayou (1957) (aka Poor White Trash). This has been uploaded several times on YouTube, and this is probably the best-quality version so far. Sure I’ve posted the dance before, but it’s so awesome, it deserves repeated viewings.

Several of Ulysses’ moves ended up in God Hilliard’s dance catalog in The World’s Greatest Sinner (1962). Oh my goodness gracious me…
