The Ballroom Scene from "I Don't Want to be a Man" - 1918

Ernst Lubitsch frequently inserted comical dance scenes into his films, and this is no exception.

The premise is that a young lady, unhappy with her lot, impersonates a man. She then finds out it's not all it's cracked up to be.

This film provides a wonderful snapshot of Ragtime era Fox Trot/One Step.
