This is one of the best Fred Astaire and Ginger Roberts films made and if you only ever watch one, it should be this one. This has some amazing dance scenes and even more than that, it is funny. The interaction between Astaire and Rogers is great. And this is the movie that debuted the famous song "the way you look tonight".

Not bad but not great. There are some decent dances and the music is pretty good. The plot was ok but felt dated.
