Tom and Ellen Bowen are a brother and sister dance act whose show closes in New York. Their agent books them in London for the same period as the Royal Wedding. They travel by ship where Ellen meets and becomes involved with Lord John Brindale. This causes her to miss a rehearsal. Tom (Astaire) uses the time to dance with a hat rack and gym equipment. Later Tom and Ellen attempt a graceful dance number as the ship rolls. Upon arrival Tom holds auditions and meets Anne. There is much indecision by the siblings about their romantic partners even though they are in-the-clouds. Tom dances on the walls and ceiling of his hotel room. All ends well in this light musical. By the way, there is a vaudeville-style dance number in their show that features slapstick. It’s a hoot.

The unique beautician quantitatively tame because ambulance trivially share over a kindhearted bonsai. tremendous, secret trapezoid
Great classic. Too bad the sound is quite a mess here at some point.
虽然在大陆生长长大,但我对米高梅和派拉蒙公司的电影还有希区考克的电影都感兴趣。像:翠笛春晓,出水芙蓉,傲慢与偏见等等。我的同事说:只可惜你生错了地方……
Here's what I can't understand: the film appears to show scenes from the Coronation (1953) – but the film was made in 1951!! Undoubtedly, the worst dubbed film in human history. I have heard of kitchen-sync drama – but this was post?-Pre? Post? Pre-sync.- drama..??!! But HUGE fun nonetheless!
This was MGM. Amazing Talent on and off screen..
Wow, I've never seen white Haitian people before! Greta flick though in spite of audio being off
Fred Astaire always wearing dancing shoes
Really annoying when the sound goes during a song and sync is out for rest of film!
Good movie, thanks. But soundtrack keeps muting..
It was so hot without AC yet he puts on a bathrobe in the dressing room and changes into a suit coat.
Isn't this kind of the story of what really happened with Fred and Adelle Astaire?
jane powell like WHOA. a babe
Sad the sound is out
Only reason I'm here is because of school I wanna die😑
Good movie. 👍🏼 I just have a difficult time seeing them as brother/sister, what with the 30 year age difference. Uncle/niece would have been more believable to me.

With all the delays between the film and the non-synchronizing sounds…
On top of that from time to time the sarcastic chats…in view 😖‼️
Sorry, but you'll have to restore that first. I won't subscribe under these conditions.. Especially taking in to consideration the utmost talent in this film.
Sincerly,

First time i seen this movie. What makes a great film What a fab film in Glorias Technicolor superb choreography and dance sequences from the master Fred Astair this is a feel good movie great set designs light harted and great music in between the banter these actors look so comfortable on screen.
sound went out came bake went out again why?
50:57 WTF? The previous musical numbers were not silenced. What's so special about the copyright on this one?
too much ad
Movies as they were meant to be everlasting.
Did anybody notice that she's pretty, dances ok, but the singing really hurts your ears
3:18
Women were so beautiful back then.
Fred astaire could dance with anything
The sound goes out at 50:30. It was awful. My mom was really into the story.
THANK YOU FOR POSTING this. Really thank you
VIDEO DROPS HALFWAY THROUGH. After it picks back up, it’s out of sync for the rest of the movie. That’s what you get for free.
Terrific dancing, Fred on the ceiling was amazing. Wonderful movie, simple and entertaining ❤️
>>>WHO NEEDS THIS 🎥, 🍿 AND 🍷 AFTER THE EVENTS OF 1/7/2021?
🙋🏾

Wonderful!
What is going on with this old movies ?
Why do they loose the voice.?
I like this old artists, but better with voice. So be so kind and give them all their voice back. Thank you..🙏🏻🤣
Looks a million dollars. This is visually stunning compared with others. It's HD supercharged! Damn it's great till 55m & it loses sound then comes back out of sync. It looks great.
Fred astaire quel danseur sublime de la classe un rêve merci
Too far out of sync!
wonderful musical movie though bit off time sound with screen, sync. I wonder if I had been from that time. I loved the dancing skill of Fred and the lady Jane Powell.
moreover, it seems dance or scenes are taken in one shot, which is really really classic and that also shows how great were they in their art. and ladies of that age really looks splendid and awesome.
What happened to the sound? It cuts out several time throughout the movie. Very disappointed
Wonderful copy, pity it goes out of sync in the middle. Could you upload it again?
What happened to the sound !
No sound during stage act
