Synopsis:
In this Vincente Minnelli-directed backstager, Fred Astaire dazzles in numbers set in a train station (By Myself), a penny arcade, a backlot Central Park and a smoky cafe, the latter two with the incomparable Cyd Charisse. And when he, Nanette Fabray and Jack Buchanan play infants who "hate each other very much!" in the merry Triplets, it's one more reason to love this movie very, very much. As the hallmark song which originated here goes, That's Entertainment!

classic musical delights - The Band Wagon review by AW

Spoiler Alert
01/02/2022

Fred Astaire is a joy to watch, as expected. The surprise is gorgeous Cyd Charisse with wasp waist and legs that go on forever. Some wonderful laughs provided by the antics of Jack Buchanan. Some great songs.
