You Were Never Lovelier. Fred Astaire, Rita Hayworth.
Published: A lavish 1942 musical set in Buenos Aires, where down-on-his luck dancer Fred Astaire romances elegantly cool Rita Hayworth, against the wishes of her suspicious father (Adolphe Menjou). A remake of an Argentinian film, The Gay Senorita, this was the last of the Astaire-Hayworth screen pairings, and is notable for including the fifteen-year old Fidel Castro amongst the extras. [Coded for region 2 only: the UK and Europe, Japan, the Middle East, Egypt, Greenland, and South Africa.] |
