Amazing. Usually the guy is supposed to show off the girl but here I cannot take my eyes off Fred Astaire. Is just the taps that draw attention or is just his charisma? =)

Without doubt the best dancing partnership in the history of cinema! Bar none.... and by a long, long shot. The emotion elicited though their dancing is much more than the sum of two parts: 1 + 1 = 2....of most other couples. For Fred and Ginger, it's 1 + 1 = 2,002! As Richard Jewell has said: They "'lift us up from the burdens of our weary world" by giving us "a timeless vision of surpassing beauty and grace". Bless them both.

This film is now rated #90 by TCM of the greatest films ever made, and according to Richard Jewell, the author of the RKO Story...is truly the "most wonderful film ever made". Robert Mueller, author of "Astaire Dancing", considers it some of the "greatest dancing in the history of the universe"; and Arlene Croce, the author of the "FA and GR Book" calls it the "miricle film of the series"....The film that should not have worked, after the incomparible "Top Hat"..but does.

Oh...I like it too!

Actually it's Renee who looks like Ginger...and Chicago was based upon "Roxie Hart", a great film starring Ginger from 1941.
