Fred & Ginger: Too Hot to Handle

A dance number of Fred Astaire and Ginger Roger's in Roberta (1935). It's actually called "Hard to Handle", but I think they're just hot in their teasing manner here. This is one of their most fun-loving routines, including the signature bugle call. Credit to Warner Bros.

I'm pretty darn sure this is from Follow the Fleet, not Roberta.

Sorry to say but it is most definitely Roberta.

I'm 13 and I think this is amazing... A generation never has just one opinion you know.

This was the first video I saw of them, and I've loved them ever since. <3

[chomsky88]

I'm glad; I loved them when I was 13 too.

I wish it still could be like this. Men and women had class and everyone seemed to be so kind to eachother.

Omg tap dancing in high heels

Doing those moves

[Sarah McChops]

Amen to that Sadie! ;)

It still amazes me that Ginger never had a dancing lesson in her life! That is just one incredible woman !

[LadyMiir]

Love how the taps were basically the dialogue in that little mock argument bit

[Molly Koenig]

I'm sitting here, screaming, "GO GINGER GO! KEEP UP, BABY!!"

I mean, she does a great job, but man this was not an easy number!

Try resting your little pea brain instead, because apparently it's sputtering. You can try to b.s. your way through your "knowledge" of movie history on YouTube but you clearly don't know what you're talking about.

I'll agree with you on one thing, she is gorgeous, but sorry, one take could not mean a scene shot 12 times. You can't just make words magically mean what you wish them to mean. If something was shot 12 times it was not shot in one take.
