Movie Info

You'll Never Get Rich was the first of two films made by Fred Astaire at Columbia, and also the first in which he was paired with his favorite female dancing partner--not Ginger Rogers or Cyd Charisse, but Rita Hayworth.

Lesser Astaire, but still way above average for any musical.

A leaden musical/comedy, built around a series of misunderstandings.

Audience Reviews for You'll Never Get Rich

Exceptionally good musical, the teaming of Fred Astaire and Rita Hayworth is amazing. Rita looks exceptionally stunning in this picture. Very good production values, Cole Porter music and some superb dancing.

A cute comedy/musical, with some pretty nice dance numbers and groovy music. I can't help but prefer the Ginger films, though. Rita Hayworth is phenomenal, but she doesn't look quite right next to Fred.
