5.0 out of 5 stars Astaire's grace enraptures from the first reel, 11 Nov 2000
By A Customer
I first saw this movie on celluloid and it mezmerised me from the beginning. The gentle humour is wonderfully timed and observed and gives a feel-good sensibility to the film. The real focus, however, is the relationship between Astaire and Rogers. Their set piece dance routines are excellent, and indeed Astaire shows off his inimitable grace throughout, even when he is not dancing. The songs, written by Jerome Kerr, are beautiful and sung with Astaire's natural instinct for mood and tone. The classic set piece 'Never Gonna Dance' is an absolute gem, and a wonder of cinematography. Despite the slightly farcical ending (for which the film is all the more charming), this a one of the happiest movies which I have seen and one which will leave you with an overwhelming urge to buy a top hat and tails...
