Time Out
Rating: B- --
Though not one of the best Astaire-Rogers musicals, this screwball comedy has a nice score and Oscar-nominated song by Irving Berlin.

Shtick crept its way into the Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers dynamic with this later collaboration.

You could probably call Carefree more of a screwball comedy than a typical Astaire-Rogers musical.

The dancing is excellent and so, outside office hours, is the picture.

It's lower rung Fred and Ginger, but it's still Fred and Ginger.

The story is slight and the comedy never quite jells.

Product Description:
A comic Astaire/Rogers pairing that's more madcap than most. When stuffed-shirt Bellamy (and who can play that part better') sends his dizzy radio-singer fiancee to a shrink to find out why she won't settle down, the dancing analyst opens her to the possibility of love and then sees his happiness heading down the aisle with the wrong man. The Berlin tunes include "Change Partners."
Description by Warner Home Video:
Carefree
Steve Arden is frustrated with his fiancee, singer Amanda Cooper, when she breaks off their engagement for the third time. He enlists the aid of his friend psychologist/hypnotist Dr. Tony Flagg. Although Amanda falls in love with Tony, he hypnotizes her and convinces her to love Steve. After the treatment, it is Tony who is mesmerized.
