These two are a little before my time but thanks to KZitem I've been able to watch them. I don't know what it is but, when I watch these I feel a calm sweep over me. So much today seems crude and crass and the daily news is just kick in the gut after another. I know that life was tough in the 30's and I think the make believe beauty of this was one thing that helped those folks cope. Just like it does for me today.

I used to watch Fred and Ginger films on TV when I was growing up in the 50th's. They were already oldies then. My Mom and Dad, having grown up in the 30th's, loved all these movies and it was a treat to watch the Saturday night TV program that featured all of them. Mom used to love Glen Miller and used to play the same LP over and over featuring his music. This was in El Salvador, Central America.

Every and I mean every later dancer or lady dancer can only bow to these two. They were, and still are, the very very best. I've never seen a couple that had such almost mental bond as Astaire and Rogers.

It doesn't get any better than this. For those who are dismissive of the sound and the singing, you have to remember that in 1934 movie sound was still in its infancy. It was a wondrous thing to be able to hear anyone sing in a movie, not that Fred was that bad. Also, this was years before the advent of the electronically reorganized, over produced music that is prevalent today. The sound of Gay Divorcee is real. It is authentic. As far as the dancing goes, no one, and I mean no one, has surpassed Fred and Ginger. Superb!

A cute little saying that misrepresents a fact--Astaire was easily the greatest dancer (brilliant dancer), and creator of dances in 20th century entertainment. And Ginger Rogers was a very good dancer, adequate singer, and fairly good comic actress, with a gorgeous figure and a liquid athletic flow to her movements.
