A Fine Romance

Ginger should have been wearing the booties from my last post in this scene from Swing Time, another film I enjoy re-watching this time of year. The winter scenery in the clip reminds me to say to the weather gods:  enough of this rain business....we know it's inevitable, so send on the snow already.

I love Fred's bowler hat / overcoat combo in this scene. Actually, I really admire Astaire's style - he could make anything look good. And don't get me started on his singing and dancing!

I'm listening to that song all the time. My favorite on-screen couple!

All these years of watching old films, and I somehow managed to have missed seeing Swing Time! I'm heading over to Netflix right now...thanks for the tip...

I've never seen any Astaire/Rogers films! Gasp. But my favourite rendition of this song is by the Comedy Harmonists (as a medley with 'The Way You Look Tonight') - so beautiful!
