Carefree (film)

Carefree is a 1938 musical film starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. With a plot similar to screwball comedies of the period, Carefree is the shortest of the AstaireRogers films, featuring only four musical numbers. Carefree is often remembered as the film in which Astaire and Rogers shared a long onscreen kiss at the conclusion of their dance to I Used to Be Color Blind, all previous kisses having been either quick pecks or simply implied.

Psychiatrist Dr. Tony Flagg Fred Astaire does his friend Stephen Arden Ralph Bellamy a favor by taking on his fiancee, Amanda Cooper Ginger Rogers, as a patient.

Five minutes away from the wedding, he breaks into her dressing room with his assistant Connors Jack Carson and gets the chance to talk to her subconscious again when Stephen accidentally hits her instead of Tony.
