Movie #3061 "Flying Down to Rio" - Well, this movie was not a good indicated of a "their" movie because Fred and Ginger are secondary people (assistants) in this one. The first number they dance together is 45 minutes in -- The "Carioca" number has a cute head to head moment, and it's very physical, but that dance went on and on, with a huge chorus dressed in ugly costumes and they just seem to "let in" Astaire and Rogers" for a small bit... The whole movie seemed silly (other than the dancing with Astaire and Rogers) -- silly idea to get out of their silly conflict , and ended up with the silliest movie scene I've seen in a long time -- chorus girls dressed in angel- type attire propped on tops of planes as they "fly" to Rio. ugh! I'd give this one a 3 out of 5.
