Abbott & Costello, Joan Davis - "Hold That Ghost" - The Blue Danube Dance Sequence Video

[From "Kovacs Corner" on YouTube.com] - From a now very seldom seen 1941 film starring Abbott & Costello, "Hold That Ghost", this is the slapstick mime dance sequence between Lou and film and early television comedic actress Joan Davis. Joan's height of TV popularity came in the early 1950's with her starring role in "I Married Joan". Co-starring actor Jim Backus, it was a not-so-thinly veiled attempt at copying the huge success of another female lead screwball comedy, "I Love Lucy".
