And the holiday cheer continues. Sure, he's plying her with liquor and undressing her against her will, but still one has to admit, Mr. Rourke was quite a hottie in his day. And it does ease the mind somewhat that after Ricardo seduced Esther, they ... went swimming.

15 Told Me a Secret:
I'm starting to think Sean Connery and Ricardo were seperated at birth. Hot!
And all my seductions end in swimming. Don't yours?
Only the good ones, Lorraine ... only the good ones.
You really don't see enough synchronized swimming in American cinema these days. We should start a petition.
Yowzah! mmmm...I am melting. THAT was glorious. Malto-meal was soooo shexshay. And I love love love her outfit. What a great scene. YOU ROCK! WOO HOO!
JP: Be careful. I started the same petition about bringing back figure skating and we ended up with Blades of Glory.
Hat: Wasn't he, tho'? Something about that long Roman nose ... in the swimming scene (click the link), he's wearing nothin' but a pair of shiny gold swim trunks. Just sayin'.
(passes out)
"Well, that's the story of a guy, a girl and a bathing suit."
Oh, Eric, those two videos were so much fun!
Multi-talented actor and actress, there!
do you act: yes
do you sing: yes
do you move well: yes
do you swim: yes
are you charming, witty and hot: well! check me out!
. . . so is that how the job interview went?
KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!
He's a hunk, even without the fake pectorals.
I recently saw Esther in Good Morning America.....she still swims and is still lovely...old ladies say that about older ladies. I can't swim so after I was seduced we went to bed...forget the frivolity.
Hat: I don't have any smelling salts, so I'll attempt to revive you with some pie. Did it work?
LoveMyLife: Well, there are stories about those old Hollywood casting couches. Who knows what Ricardo had to do to get that role. I swoon thinking about it, frankly.
Lex: Wow, I'd totally forgotten about that. Hi, not a Trekkie. He'll always be Mr. Rourke to me. Welcome to Fantasy Island, indeed.
Rosemary: That's because you're sensible.
Ah, a Frank Loesser tune. A master at the "charm song". I've always loved this number.
well, duh!
Ah yes, but 'dipping in the pool' is just a metaphor...
Late to the pool party! He was smokin' hot. Love the accent, the graceful masculinity, the nose, the swim trunks...I really must stop now.
Apparently Esther and Ricardo finished the swimming scene with a happy ending (hey, the announcer said it, not me).
Thanks for the post Red.
Michael: Me too, and pleased that I hear it more and more this time of year; I think it's finally entering the list of songs that can rightly be called "standards" this time of year.
Hat: Tee!
D-Man: Well, there is that. I think you just explained Esther Williams' entire film career.
Tater: It was my pleasure. No, really.
