豆知識

Let's Dance is a 1950 American Technicolor musical romantic comedy-drama film directed by Norman Z. McLeod and starring Betty Hutton and Fred Astaire, with Roland Young, Ruth Warrick, Lucile Watson and Gregory Moffett. All music was composed by Frank Loesser. The film was produced and released by Paramount Pictures.

Production

Following the great success that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer found in teaming Astaire with its greatest female musical star Judy Garland in the 1948 musical Easter Parade, Paramount sought to team Astaire with its own leading female musical star, Betty Hutton. The studio purchased the rights to a magazine story titled "Little Boy Blue", written by Maurice Zolotow, as the basis for the screenplay.

Filming was slated to begin in June, 1949. Filming took place between July to September 1949, though many production numbers were worked on beforehand. Filming was rushed so Hutton could do Annie Get Your Gun for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The film originally ran for nearly two and a half hours, with the screenplay often re-written on set. A number "Ming Toy" was recorded and shot, but was cut from the film.

"Tunnel Of Love", sung by Hutton and Astaire in the film, was originally written by Loesser for the 1949 film, Neptune's Daughter. Jane Cowl was originally cast in the role of Serena Everett but was replaced by Watson due to an injury.
