Astaire musical with Rita Hayworth. DVD review.
Underweight Astaire joins the army but keeps getting put into solitary.
Black and white musical that features Astaire in his usual smug role - he cheats to get into the army, pretends to be a captain, helps his boss cheat on his wife, and gets "badgered". Movie gets interesting when Astaire joins the army but nobody in this movie really likes him. Hayworth is beautiful (I prefer her to Ginger Rogers), can dance, and has some funny scenes. There's a mixed bag of supporting roles but I liked the boss' wife - who NEVER falls for her husband's silly excuses. Best scene has Astaire in solitary showing off to everyone - he really was a talented performer. There's also a Busby Berkley-type dance finale on a giant tank.
You'll Never get Rich is worth a look.
