You Were Never Lovelier

(1942) dir William A. Seiter w/Fred Astaire, Rita Hayworth, Adolphe Menjou, Xavier Cugat and His Orchestra [97 min; DCP]

Though she had appeared as a dancer on screen before, these two films in which she starred opposite the great Fred Astaire were Hayworth’s first opportunity to really show off her dance skills… and boy does it pay off! Both Astaire and Hayworth considered these two films to be some of the best work of their careers. In YOU WERE NEVER LOVELIER, Astaire plays a gambler whose losses find him stranded in Buenos Aires where he crosses paths with the beautiful daughter of a nightclub owner (Hayworth).
