Review of The Band Wagon (1953) by Ben D — 22 Apr 2012
A very fine, sophisticated musical comedy, starring the wonderful pairing of Fred Astaire and Cyd Charise. In the 1950s, this is the sort of thing Hollywood did in its sleep - but how well it did it! Vincente Minnelli handles the direction with aplomb, and panache, and the whole thing just hums along with easy genius.
Good, good fun.
