Great final performances from Fred and Ginger - By: pointone, 14 Jan 2006
When this film was releasedin 1949 ten years after the last of the great Fred & Ginger musicals of the 1930s it was considered a disappointment, however fifty seven years later it is a wonderful farewell to this immortal dance duo, & with DVD enabling us to fast forward through the less than inspired background story we can enjoy the wonderful dancing again & again.

Apart from Fred & Ginger as the squabbling married dance team we have Oscar Levant a prominent concert pianist of the time who also actedin films giving exciting iron fisted performances of “Sabre Dance” & “Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto excerpts”in the robust virtuoso manner of the time.

Beautifully digitally restored & with good mono sound this is a must DVD for fans of great dancing.
