...Thing is, all these criticisms could have been made about what we now think of as the great Astaire-Rogers musicals of the 1930s - Top Hat, Swing Time and the rest. Who cares if the stories were lame, the characters cardboard? When Fred and Ginger danced, it was swellegant, elegant, divine...

The free neighborhood baby-massage courses I attended saw migrant mothers and American corporate types bonding over lavender oil and breast-feeding.
