Summary:
"After 10 years apart, Fred
Astaire
and Ginger
Rogers
re-team in their final
film
pairing, cleverly written by Betty Comden and Adolph Green and smoothly directed by Charles Walters. The story, per many sources, mirrors real-life creative tensions the two shared.
Astaire
plays driven hoofer Josh Barkley.
Rogers
is his wife, Dinah, who longs to forsake the clackety-clap-tapping of Bouncin' the Blues for stage drama. She parts, Josh vies to win her back, and the routines leading to a happy resolution include Fred's Shoes with Wings On and a rhapsodic reprise of a George and Ira Gershwin number from Shall We Dance: They Can't Take That Away from Me. All of which proves they can't take away the
Astaire
/Rogers magic either."--Container.
