CLOSET CASE

Friday night at 10 p.m. (Phoenix time) Turner Classic Movies is showing The Silencers (1966), one of the Matt Helm movies starring Dean Martin. It's a silly film, but it does have a sequence I've never been able to shake: Cyd Charisse, in her mid-40s, dancing under the opening titles (the singing voice is Vicki Carr's). Ever wonder about the health benefits of a life spent dancing? Check it out.
