Sally Sweetland didn't dub for Joan for all her singing. In this scene Joan is singing. In "A Lot In Common" Joan sings that herself. If they told Fred Astaire, we are going to dub your voice with another voice, Fred would have said fine, but I'm not going to dance. It is in your contract for the movie where you agree to have your voice dubbed or not.

Cole Porter, Irving Berlin and many other composers all wanted Mr. Astaire to sing his songs. He wasn't a fantastic singer, but he had great delivery.

You know Fred Astaire is not the most attractive man, but he did have charisma coming out from his pores.

Can someone PLEASE upload this whole movie! This is one of the top Fred Astaire movies that I want to watch! Seriously, Fred's acting in this movie is SOOOOOO good! If the people back then weren't so used to Fred's typecast characters, he would be nominated for a Academy Award for both this, his role in Daddy Long Legs and in On The Beach!

Goodnite, says Joan Leslie? Only in Hollywood. A little too goody-goody.
