I think Edward Norton or Tobey Maguire would make great possible choices to portray Fred Astaire, and Kate Winslet or Cate Blanchett would make great possible choices to portray Ginger Rogers in a biopic.

@mca1218 She's pushing 40 in a time where there wasn't retinols and all those other creams and peels and what not...for 38 her face and body look great.

This is the only color film of Fred and Ginger. This is the last movie they made together.

That was seriously incredible!

I love this whole number but I gotta say that my favorite part is the opening ten seconds or so of the dance. They just seem so comfortable with one another. You can really believe they'd been doing this with each other for a long time.

@TerriNaylor .....Or maybe, Austerlitz and McMath.

I think I figured out what he says as they dance offstage.
It looks like he checks her out from head to toe and goes, "Oh, my God, Ginger."
HOT. This is such an amazing movie.

I wish we could find out what Fred says to her as they dance off the stage. Ginger looks like it was the most fun she's ever had with Fred and the smile he gives her as they go offstage is awesome. It looks like there was a lot of affection between the two actors. It's interesting that people don't like this movie; I love it and I think it's because they're so clearly comfortable with each other that their intimacy is so easy. It's very much like an long-married couple.

How do you describe perfection.....great artistry, great talent, great chemistry.....very simply.....you just say, Astaire and Rogers.

Ginger looks like she is having a ball; it had been 10 yrs. since they danced together. Both had matured equally in their professions; Ginger had won the Academy Award with " Kitty Foyle "
