(8-Exceptional Film)

Bright. Inventive. Lovely.

Brother-sister  dancing pair, Tom and Ellen (Astaire and Powell), take a tour through London while the city gets ready for a royal wedding. There, the siblings, against their better judgment,  each find themselves falling for a local. Colorful, stylish musical, with excellent dance numbers throughout, and one truly astounding, unforgettable Astaire dance scene where his love for a woman causes him to tap dance on the ceiling. Wonderful movie despite a fairly uneventful  story-line.
