Plot
Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers headline Swing Time, the romantic spirit-lifter buoyed by a sublime Jerome Kern / Dorothy Fields score, nimble direction by Academy Award® winner George Stevens and the leads' effortless (after 350 hours of rehearsing!) dancing. The blithe Pick Up Yourself, the Oscar®-winning The Way You Look Tonight, the undeniably moving Never Gonna Dance ode to love and loss, Fred's Bojangles of Harlem tap tribute - they stand out among the standouts in a film widely acknowledged as one of the team's very best.
