“Top Hat”
1935
A Best Musicals list without Fred and Ginger would be unthinkable — and probably should be illegal. Those two glided, spun and tapped together so perfectly they never should have spent a second apart. This film is a great showcase for their conjoined swirling, and it comes complete with all the requisite wisecracks, ambience and great supporting players to fill in the gaps between the numbers. With Fred and Ginger, hard work seemed extraordinarily effortless.
