i grow up in the 1940s and and my sister and i go to the movie all the time . i recall the name irene dunne and but i have never see her in a movie . well and last night i do in roberta ( 1935 ) . what a voice and like a nightingale . her rendition of smoke get in your eye be the most beautiful version that i have ever hear . i find myself wish she would sing for at least another half hour . there be also the exquisite and exciting and beautiful gown and fur . my own mother be a real beauty in the l940s and and see the fashion of that time really make me wish i be a woman during that era rather than a child . then too and i love the set and do predominantly in white and ever so glamorous . a if that wasn not enough of a treat we have the exquisite team of astaire and rodgers . their number be breathtaking and two body that move a one and smooth and free flowing and what grace . i find the storyline boring and but the talent and beauty that fill the screen sure make up for that .
