Amazon.com essential video:
The devil is in the details when it comes to this effervescent Fred Astaire and Rita Hayworth musical. The slight storyline is a hook upon which to hang dance sequences, bits of humor, and songs by Jerome Kern and Johnny Mercer. Set in Buenos Aires, it's a remake of an Argentine feature from the previous year and followed You'll Never Get Rich. Astaire stars as a professional hoofer and Hayworth is Adolphe Menjou's second oldest daughter. The wealthy businessman won't let his youngest daughters marry until Maria (Hayworth) ties the knot. She couldn't care less--until a case of mistaken identity leads her to believe that Robert (Astaire) is in love with her (he's just looking for a job at her father's club). Highlights include a tap dance set to 'Shorty George' and the Oscar®-nominated 'Dearly Beloved,' which is sung by both leads (with Hayworth dubbed by Nan Wynn). --Kathleen C. Fennessy

I grew up watching all of Fred Astaire's movies & fell in love with him. I really do love all of the Astaire/Rogers movies, especially Top Hat & Shall We Dance- they are my favorites, but this movie has always been my favorite. Not only is the dancing fantastic, as always, but I love the story, Rita Hayworth is excellent, & the music of Xavier Cugat (including the role he plays), all of it combined makes this movie (in my opinion) the greatest Astaire movie. I LOVE the soundtrack!!!

She was Fred's favorite dance partner.
Good good movie if you are a Rita fan.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching this film, brought back good memories of the smooth dancing of Fred Astaire and parthers. I would like to see the films with his other dance partners, particularly Ginger Rogers.

This sparkling 1942 film, the second and last teaming of Fred Astaire and Rita Hayworth, is a jewel in the crown of Columbia musicals. Although Astaire regretted that his films with Hayworth were never shot in color due to the studio's wartime budget, it's glorious in its black and white presentation. Rita's wardrobe will arouse envy and admiration in female viewers, as I'm sure it did upon its original release.

No introduction needed for this movie.
The MAN does more of it all for our eyes to feast on.
WE are all very fortunate Mr Astair shared so much of himself with us.
