Fred Astaire ... Tony Flagg
Jack Carson ... Thomas Connors
CAREFREE (1938) is a different kind of Rogers-Astaire film in many ways, particularly it is more a screwball comedy than a musical. And this is a Ginger Roger’s show time, not Fred’s. The film features only four Irving Berlin’s musical numbers. Anyway, I think it's a good movie played by Rogers-Astaire despite it’s got underrated by many critics. You’ll see some kind of highly amusing about how Rogers toys with Astaire at the beginning of the film, and then once he begins hypnosis, they have one of the best dance scenes ever seen between them. Their magic together is astonishing and bewildering throughout all time.
Here is one of Irving Berlin’s best songs in this film.
