lazy Sunday with Fred & Ginger

Anyway.
I watched Shall We Dance again with Lindsey today - for context, I am watching my way through all the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers movies in chronological order - and picked up a few more things. For instance, during the famous, adorable dance on roller skates to "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off", they are wearing those old-fashioned skates - you know, the ones that are just strips of metal on wheels strapped over your shoes - and Ginger is wearing them over heels. Modest heels, but seriously, how the fuck did she not break her neck? Damn, girl.

Anyway, I'm a little sad there's only three movies left, but at least I haven't seen any of these before! I'm especially curious about The Barkleys of Broadway, which they made after ten years working with other people.
