...fella and a gal to burst into song. Just about everybody sang: Cagney, Gable, the Marx Brothers, every cowboy from Gene Autry to John Wayne. And when the stars didn't sing, they danced. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers not only taught the nation new steps but, dancing cheek to cheek, they put love in motion. They defined la belle, la perfectly swell romance...
