More people learned about her life in the 1950's when the movie Million Dollar Mermaid was released. This movie starred a new and very popular synchronized swimmer, Esther Williams, but it was a biography of Annette Kellerman's life. Esther Williams was a big movie star in the 1940's and 1950's. Her amazing underwater dance productions brought big crowds into movie theatres all across the country.

There is a scene in History of the World Part I. The movie is from 1981. The whole movie is a parody of history - incedibly funny. Worth seeing. The synchronized swimming is part of the "Inquisition" segment of the movie. There is a song and dance number right before the swimming.. this might be what you are looking for =)

You'll want to search on Esther Williams, who I believe was an Olympic swimmer who went on to star in movies. She was almost always part of a sync/swim scene. Some of them may have been colorized... not sure whether she made any once color was introduced into film production.

Caddyshack!
There's also an old SNL skit with Martin Short about two synchronized swimmers.
