Fred Astaire’s dance partner gives her dancing shoes a break and her acting chops a go in this examination of the female role in romantic relationships. Though the lovers still tango cheek to cheek (does anyone actually sit that way?), Ginger proves she can go toe to toe with any man the camera can put in its path. On marriage and courtship, Ginger as Kitty holds her own. She falls in love with the wrong man for the right reasons and the seasons of their affair reveal that not everything is fair when it comes to love and money, honey.
