This is the Official Gene Kelly Blue Sky Account, hosted by his wife and biographer Patricia Ward Kelly. Welcome!
Gene on the Danny Kaye Show, October 1963, doing a soft shoe. I think you will all spot the ease in Gene’s face and arms. He is really in his element.

There is something about the ease in Gene's motion, as though he is just skating gently for himself and for no one else. The elegance of his black tie attire adds to it as well. The word soigné comes to mind.

Yet more growing audiences for Gene's films: people with Alzheimer's and dementia and young people with autism and various other neurodiverse issues. Gene would be proud knowing his work is being put to such good work.

Gene was a firm believer that “black tie” meant black tie. I thought he looked brilliant in it. Generally, our life was quite private and informal. But this gives you a taste of Gene’s public look. For me, the charm in his slight smile is hard to resist.

I took this photo of Gene in our living room. He’s wearing one of his favorite sweaters—a classic cardigan from Brooks Brothers. This is where Gene & I sat each night, listening to Frank Sinatra & Nat King Cole Trio on the stereo with a fire glowing. I really miss it.

I love when I learn new things about Gene’s experiences. This photo was taken in 1970, when Gene visited the National Film Archive at the Roundhouse in London to see “Cinema city: an exhibition of 75 years of moving pictures.” Gene’s response is very Gene.

I wish I had this trunk full of shoes! I do have one pair of his dancing shoes (the moccasins from An American in Paris that I just purchased at auction). Sadly, the tap shoes went in Gene’s house fire in 1983.

I love this! @ralph_macchio on visiting Gene's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame: "I wanted to be Gene Kelly when I was a kid, so I wanted to see Gene Kelly's star."
