Dancing with joy and for joy. Amazing ideas, wonderful choreography, great songs. There just was no need for so much talking. 85%

Swing Time intrigued me more than Top Hat because Fred and Ginger are a much more interesting couple here, and you can really feel their chemistry. Moreover, some scenes are very surreal. I'm referring, of course, to the scenes that involve dancing. Some of those numbers are just unforgettable.
