This educational montage was created for Barbara Dent's and Jacques Guyard's 2017 New Year Party. It consists in a selection of Fred Astaire's best duets, featuring Ginger Rogers, Rita Hayworth, Judy Garland, Eleanor Powell, Cyd Charisse, and Lucille Bremer, as well as a few Astaire quotes from other movies (including THE GREEN MILE, THE PURPLE ROSE OF CAIRO, THE ENGLISH PATIENT, and A STRANGER AMONG US). This is to prove the cultural and historical importance of Astaire's musicals. Selection by N. T.
