Swing Time
(George Stevens, 1936, USA, 103 minutes)
Starring the beloved dance team of Fred Astaire and Missouri’s own Ginger Rogers (who hailed from the Kansas City area and lived for a time here in St. Louis), Swing Time features the pair at their charismatic best. Astaire plays Lucky Garnett, a gambler who travels to New York City with the intent of raising the $25,000 he needs to marry his fiancée. Once there, he runs into Ginger Rogers’ dance instructor Penny Carrol, with whom he inevitably becomes entangled.
