  13. FRED ASTAIRE Y GINGER ROGERS,... ¿Y LOS BESOS DE CINE QUE NUNCA SE DIERON?.
    Durante décadas se repitió una curiosa idea en torno a la pareja de baile más célebre que ha dado Hollywood: que Fred Astaire y Ginger Rogers jamás se besaron en la pantalla. El mito resultaba casi perfecto para una pareja asociada a la elegancia, la corrección y la ligereza del gran musical clásico. Sin embargo, la realidad es más…

  22. “Ginger Rogers, Jeanne Gray, Betty Grable and Joy Hodges seen as they put over Irving Berlin's ‘Let Yourself Go.’ Wait till you hear them sing that tune in the new film co-starring Ginger and Fred Astaire.” — Screenland, Feb. 1936

  24. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers in “Follow the Fleet” (1936).

    Astaire’s and Rogers’s names are forever linked—despite their great separate successes—thanks to their legendary screen partnership extending through ten films from 1933 to 1949.

  25. Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire pose for “Roberta” (1935), perhaps their most underrated pairing. Their dances are joyous and romantic and the music is amongst the all-time greats in films. The storyline is funny and dramatic in good doses, too!

  27. 42nd Street (1933), arguably the greatest musical of them all. Hardboiled, sexy, sassy, snappy plus those Busby Berkeley production numbers. It's like a delicious cocktail but with enough hard liquor in it to give it a real kick. Movie magic.

  28. Ginger Rogers in Modern Screen, September 1935

    “Gingers Rogers having rested her tapping toes with a brief dash into the comedy-drama of "Star of Midnight" is back deftly following Fred Astaire's intricate pace and Irving Berlin's snappy music in ‘Top Hat.’ And it's top stuff!”

  29. Ginger Rogers and Dennis Morgan star in “Perfect Strangers” (1950). This has always struck me as a far more plausible view into a jury in a high stakes murder trial than the later “12 Angry Men.” Of course that also means it’s much less dramatic.

    Nonetheless, the believability of the setting sets things up nicely for the emotional climax after the trial is over.
