Did you know he stared out as a hoofer?

Wait until you see this mash-up of his moves!

Hi Noel! How's it going.

Yes, I knew Mr. Walken was a dancer - stage then film. He's the different sort of fellow that one notices right away - and for good reasons.

He is funny, scary-looking and quite hot all at the same time. This man knows his craft.

Thanks for the video Noel. Yes, I knew he was a hoofer from way back. He's one of my all-time favorite actors.

I agree with route7.

I love Christopher Walken. I remember when Rosie O'Donnell had her first show which was very successful, she had him on as a guest. She pretended to be very frightened of him (as a joke). Because he can play a creepy guy so well, it's easy to forget that he's an actor playing a role, LOL.

Love that, thanks for posting.

Chris Walken is great. I just loved him on SNL (more cowbell!), LOL. He is good in all of his movies.

I really like him in the James Bond movie A View to a Kill. He is the villain in it but I like his performance anyway. He just seemed to be enjoying himself so much with every bad deed.

The Deer Hunter, Annie Hall, Catch Me if You Can, Brainstorm, The Dead Zone, so many more. One of my very personal favorites is Blast From The Past. He is so good as the dad determined to keep his family safe after what he thinks is a nuclear attack.

He is great in comedy (my preference for him) as well as drama. A multi-talented man.

Hi Noel!!! OMGosh thanks for sharing that! I am a huge Christopher Walken fan and knew he could dance, but that compilation was awesome! Some of those movies I have missed and now I want to see them. He is such an amazing actor, can play sweetheart or villain, and there will never be anyone else with his delivery.

Anytime someone says Christopher Walken, what first comes to mind is his hilarious "More Cowbell" skit with Will Ferrell on SNL.... it's a must see for SNL fans.

However, his video for Fatboy Slim's "Weapon Of Choice" is still one of my all time favs!

Gotta see it if you haven't.... www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZM1fkHQP_Pw (just copied the link since I know clicking links makes some people nervous)

I like his performances, but always wonder about what happened on Robert Wagner's yacht that fateful evening.

A hoofer is a dancer, BBR.
