A celebration of 50 years of film musicals
3: Cheek to Cheek
'When Hollywood revived musical films three years ago, dancing was monopolised by director Busby Berkeley and his imitators. Thanks more to Fred Astaire than any other single influence, the character of music comedy in Cinema has completely changed.'
(Time Magazine, August 1935)
' When Top Hat is letting Astaire perform his incomparable magic or teaming him with the increasingly dextrous Miss Rogers it is providing the most urbane fun you will find anywhere on the screen.'
(New York Times. August 1935) Douglas Fairbanks Jr takes a look at the most successful dancing partnership in the history of Hollywood. Also taking part: FRED ASTAIRE, IRVING BERLIN, PANDRO S. BERMAN, DOROTHY FIELDS, SHEILAH GRAHAME, HERMES PAN, ARTHUR SCHWARTZ, CHUCK WALTERS
