Movie Reviews

The New York Times - 9/10 by Frank S. NugentA beautifully told story, with sincere and vigorous performances, and with a solid and richly atmospheric production to lend its interest and fascination.
Film and Felt - 7/10 by Gabe LeibowitzIt's not exactly a stretch for Astaire and Rogers, but they do the old rags-to-riches angle seamlessly, and the finale is surprisingly touching.
The Spectator - 7/10 by Graham GreenePerhaps the best the marvelous couple have made since Gay Divorce.
The Observer (UK) - 7/10 by Philip FrenchIf joy and liberation bursts from the best Astaire-Rogers films, The Story of Vernon and Irene Castle is defined by restriction.
LarsenOnFilm - 4/10 by Josh LarsenIf joy and liberation exudes from the best Astaire-Rogers films, this is defined by restriction.
User Review - 10/10 by Private UAn atypical Fred/Ginger movie, but also my favourite. It's really Ginger's flick and her acting's amazing. She also looks lovely (as always).
User Review - 10/10 by Steve BThis was a more dramatic film for Fred and Ginger, and yet it was still fun to watch! The songs in this film were fun, and the dancing was thoroughly enjoyable. Most people seem to think this was one of the worse Astaire/ Rogers film; however, I personally disagree and think it is one of their better films!
User Review - 10/10 by Sharon Ebrill.....if you enjoy ballroom dancing....what two better stars to show you.....a classic..
User Review - 10/10 by Georgina WDon't have much to say about the film. When you watch it, you'll know how great it is. Love story, tear-jerker, historicial...etc. The dancing makes it great.
User Review - 10/10 by Donato RMost see. Dance History! Don't forget your hankie!
