BROADWAY MELODY OF 1940 (1940, 1h42m)
The dance team of Johnny Brett (Fred Astaire) and King Shaw (George Murphy) are barely scraping by until Bob Casey (Frank Morgan), catches sight of Brett’s moves and wants to cast him as the dance partner of the Broadway star Clare Bennett (Eleanor Powell). Misdirection, confusion, and spectacular dance routines ensue as they work it out on the dance floor.
