Fred Astaire, Eleanor Powell and George Murphy sing and dance to the music of Cole Porter in this musical spectacular about the problems that arise when the wrong partner of a ballroom dance team lands a starring role on the Great White Way in Broadway Melody of 1940.
In a case of mistaken identity, King Shaw (Murphy) is cast to star on Broadway—resulting an inflated ego for Shaw and a big headache for the theatrical company. Rather than stand in his way, King's much-more talented partner, Johnny Brett (Astaire), coaches Shaw for his starring role. But when King arrives late and drunk on opening night, the true star goes on stage--and triumphs.
Featuring Fred Astaire and Eleanor Powell in a six-minute tap dance finale to Cole Porter's "Begin the Beguine."
