Summary:
"“We’ll show them a thing or three,” Honey Hale (Ginger
Rogers
) says as she and Fred Ayres (Fred
Astaire
) take to the dance floor to do The Carioca. As events turned out,
Astaire
and
Rogers
showed us three times three, making nine more films together after their breakthrough first screen teaming in
Flying
down
to
Rio
. “Too big for the earth, so they staged it in the sky!” ads declared for this spirit-lifter with a swell Vincent Youmans score and built around a romantic triangle played by Dolores Del
Rio
, Gene Raymond and Raul Roulien. It also includes a dandy production number in which chorines soar on airplane wings.
Rogers
and
Astaire
are fourth- and fifth-billed, but their magic was undeniable. When the
film
ends, the last image we see isn’t the leads. It’s Fred and Ginger."--Container.
