RKO in the 1930s featured the cinematic artistry of the seemingly effortless and carefree, graceful, energetic and inspired dance team of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers—the most enduring, best-loved and complementary stars of the era. They made nine films together at RKO in the ‘30s, including such classics as Follow The Fleet, Shall We Dance, Swing Time, Top Hat, Carefree, and The Gay Divorcee, dancing to the unforgettable music of Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern, Cole Porter, and the Gershwins. A perfect—and elegant—beginning to the Jazz Kings’ 2006-07 salute to the movies.
