DANCING LADY

(Robert Z. Leonard) A cast to stagger the ages: Joan Crawford, Clark Gable, film-debuting Fred Astaire, Franchot Tone, Nelson Eddy, Robert Benchley, even The Three Stooges — in MGM’s glossy combo of 42nd Street-type musical and typical Joan urban-Cinderella yarn. Approx. 92 min. 35mm.
1:00, 4:45, 8:30

“A lively affair… The dancing of Fred Astaire and Miss Crawford is most graceful and charming.”
– The New York Times

FLYING DOWN TO RIO

(Thornton Freeland) As half-naked chorus girls cavort on the wings of Rio-bound bi-planes, 4th and 5th-billed Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire, in their first pairing, dance their way into our hearts via “The Carioca.” Plus Mickey's Gala Premiere! Approx. 89 min. 35mm.
2:50, 6:35, 10:20

“Almost surreally entertaining.” – Pauline Kael

“A nutty entry that springs alive for “The Carioca,” possibly the [Astaire and Rogers] duo’s sexiest dance.”
– Entertainment Weekly
