Among the many wonderful dance folk who passed in 2009, was the incredible Frankie Manning,
one of the founders of the lindy hop. A documentary, called Frankie Manning: Never Stop Swinging,
was in its final stages at the time of his death, and although it is in no way complete
(there's certainly not enough discussion of how to move to music), there is much of interest.
New York's public television station, Channel Thirteen has the entire 28 minute documentary
on its website along with some background. You can see the entire documentary above.
