If you can blend the two. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, the famous dancing team, may have gotten their start in Flying Down to Rio but The Gay Divorcee is their first solo starring effort, and readily establishes the formula for most of the rest: two charming people overcome obstacles in a slight farce until a big song and dance number allows them to waltz into the sunset. An array of eccentrics lurk in the background with catty comments and charm to spare. Oddly, even with Astaire and Rogers in the lead, my complaints about Flying Down to Rio are valid here as well. The main romance plot is contrived and silly, and the amusing side characters pretty much run off with the piece uninhibited.
Here are the best new trailers of the week, including Godzilla vs. Kong and the latest films from Zendaya , Tom Holland , and more. Watch the trailers. Watch the video. Mimi Glossop wants a divorce so her Aunt Hortense hires a professional to play the correspondent in apparent infidelity.
Guy Holden, an American writer traveling in England, falls madly in love with a woman named Mimi, who disappears after their first encounter. To take his mind off his lost love, his friend Teddy Egbert, a British attorney, takes him to Brighton , where Egbert has arranged for a "paid co-respondent" to assist his client in obtaining a divorce from her boring, aging, geologist husband Robert. What Holden does not know is that the client is none other than Mimi, who in turn mistakes him — because he is too ashamed of his occupation to say what it is, namely pseudonymously writing cheap " bodice ripper " romance novels — for the paid co-respondent. At the end, when her husband appears, he is unconvinced by the faked adultery—but is then unwittingly revealed, by the waiter at the resort, to have been genuinely adulterous himself. When the producers of Gay Divorce asked Fred to star in the show, he deferred an answer until he could spend the summer of wooing his future wife, Phyllis, in London.
