Top Ten Performances - Fred Astaire
1001 Movies ... my own version (1940's) (90 movies items)" Notes: Well, even though I have never been a fan of such classic musicals, I have to admit that this one was actually not bad. Sure, the plot was just paper-thin and there was actually barely any link with Easter but I thought the damned thing was actually fairly entertaining.
