The most sexy dance of all cinema

One of the sultriest, sexiest moments in the movies: Kim Novak (Marge) and William Holden (Hal) dancing to "Moonglow" in the film "Picnic" (1955). In the first few frames, you see a young Susan Strasberg the daughter of well-known drama teacher Lee Strasberg. William Holden was 37 years old and wary of playing Hal. Kim Novak was about half his age. Curiosity: He had to shave his chest for the shirtless shots and was reportedly nervous about his dancing for the "Moonglow" scene. I wouldn't care as long as I had Miss Novak in my arms. HC.
