Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })A Musical Romantic Comedy from 1933, starring Dolores del Río and Gene Raymond but nowadays remembered more for the appearances of a young Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. In fact, it's the first time they were on-screen together, which is really the movie's main claim to fame (even though they only share one dance number together). The musical directer was Max Steiner.The real focus of the movie is on the conductor of Fred's (Astaire) band, Roger (Raymond), and rich Brazilian ingénue, Belinha (del Río). He adores her to the point where he gets fired for dancing with her, and she eventually warms up to him, but there's one problem; she's already engaged to Julio (Raul Roulien), her fiancée back home (who happens to be Roger's friend). There's another problem; the hotel the band is playing at (which happens to be owned by Belinha's father) doesn't actually have an entertainment license, which means the big opening could be a big flop. Looks like Roger's going to have to think of something big to make sure his band is a success.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })

Blatant Lies: When the band are sneaking into the hotel for the Grand Opening and have their instruments wrapped up. They're asked what they are and tell very unconvincing lies.

Beta Couple: Fred Ayres and Honey Hale—at least as Implied Love Interests. They don't act overtly lovey-dovey, but they're in each other's company a lot, they dance together (naturally), and the last shot of the film is of them drinking champagne together.

The Casanova: Roger. His habit of going after women he shouldn't be with has cost the band a lot of jobs.

Dog Food Diet: When Fred sees Roger eyeing Belinha, he reminds him, "The last time you had that look, all we had to live on for two weeks was a can of prepared dog food."
