Ginger Rogers and her shephard
While there’s moonlight and music and love and romance, let’s face the music and dance.

“It has been a lingering theme of rejoicing—for having had the privilege of working in films with the gentleman who wrote this book. Ten films! Doesn’t sound like a lot, does it? But it was quite a few more than Nelson Eddy and Jeannette MacDonald made together, or Judy with Mickey…and one more than Kate made with Spencer. And for each one of those ten films, I can’t think of any performer of the screen or stage I would rather have performed alongside than You, Mr. A!” -Ginger Rogers, Steps in Time
