Rare film of Gershwin performing I Got Rhythm at the opening of the Manhattan Theatre in New York in August 1931 (movie courtesy Edward Jablonski).Please note there is occasional film slippage which causes a slight hiccup to the rhythm in a couple of places. Also when the camera angle changes half way through this clip the sound pitch also changes as the two cameras were not running at the same speed (the film has been edited, repeating the last line of the song from the first camera shot for the beginning of the second camera shot to help disguise the sudden change of pitch).

In 1937, the year that he died at age 38, Gershwin moved to Hollywood. He completed the music for two movies. Unlike the other movie composers of his day, he not only wrote the songs but also wrote all of the instrumental music (composers such as Berlin, Porter, and Kern wrote the songs for piano while others like Max Steiner and Robert Russell Bennett did the orchestration and composed the incidental music). Here we have two scenes featuring Gershwin's instrumental work "Walking the Dog". During the second scene, there is a wonderful transition from "Walking the Dog" to the song "Beginner's Luck" (lyrics by Ira Gershwin), so I included it as well. [ More Detail ]
