You'll Never Get Rich (1941)
YOU'LL NEVER GET RICH (1941) ¢ ¢ ¢
D: Sidney Lanfield
Fred Astaire, Rita Hayworth, Robert Benchley
Fred gets drafted and lands in the stockade, but still manages to put on a big show for the boys at the end. A minor Astaire vehicle with Fred and Rita tapping their way through some Cole Porter tunes. (The finale has them dancing on top of a make-believe tank.) The storytelling is thin, but when did that ever matter in a Fred Astaire movie?
