Reform school knock-out Ginger Rogers (as Arlette Lafron) is trained as a Parisian pickpocket, upon release from the institution. Unfortunately, Ms. Rogers is almost immediately caught. During the running time, she receives admirable support from sexy Jean-Pierre Aumont, teacher Basil Rathbone, and ambassador Adolphe Menjou. Even in soft focus, the lovely Rogers is an unconvincing 18-year-old. Interestingly, she did, with script and charm, manage the girlishness in "The Major and the Minor" (1942). Perhaps, "Heartbeat" was hoped to be the same sort of success. Not quite, but the cast and crew do what they can.**** Heartbeat (1946) Sam Wood ~ Ginger Rogers, Jean-Pierre Aumont, Basil Rathbone
