I had to watch "Take Off With Us" both parts multiple times. There was so much going on in those scenes

Fosse seems like the progenitor of all of the short-cut clips so prevalent in videos and movies in the last 30 years, which have chopped dance sequences up so you can't really see anything. He did it really well, but it has become ubiquitous and degraded since then

FYI, It's been available on Tubi to stream

...and there's a loaded Criterion DVD/BluRay that's been available for almost 10 years.

Just was looking at the DVD Beaver comparison page for ATJ, this is framegrab from one of the featurettes from Fox's special edition DVD that was ported over to the Criterion:
