It may be one of the weakest of the Astaire/Rogers features, but there's still plenty to enjoy in this rather silly comedy musical. Fred looks uneasy as a psychiatrist trying to find a cure for best pal Ralph Bellamy's dippy, wedding-shy fiancée (played by Ginger), and she looks positively mortified at having to endure the hypnotic mischief sequences. As far as the songs go, The Yam is a far cry from The Continental, but Change Partners is pleasing and the dream dance I Used to Be Colour Blind is suitably surreal. The highlight, however, is Fred's exquisite golfing routine to the title song.
Plot Summary
Musical comedy starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Lawyer Stephen Arden is worried because his fiancée Amanda Cooper keeps postponing their wedding day. So he arranges an appointment for her to see his best friend, Tony Flagg, a brilliant psychiatrist.
