They didn't dislike each other, that's just a silly myth. Like other great partnerships, they just didn't socialise together after working long hours together all day - would you? They both said in later interviews they were very fond of each other.

Hi omarov,

Thank you for putting this trailer of ROBERTA (1935). It's one of the most beautiful pictures ever made at RKO. The movie is a perfect combination of talents: William Seiter as director, Pandro S. Berman as a producer, Allan Scott as screenwriter, the glorious Jerome Kern for music, and Irene Dunne, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. What more could one ask?

OMAROV I would like so much to see Astaire playing on the piano "I Won't Dance" in this movie Roberta. Don't you has that and send to YouTube ? Thanks, Carlos, Brazil.

A great movie, with wonderful music.

that is good to hear.

It is a wonder how two people could dislike each other as Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire did, and produce such quality dancing and showmanship.
