Ginger's 'Screen Time': Approximately 42 Minutes and 8 Seconds (39.4% of the film).
GingerTunes: " The Continental".
GandF Dances: "Don't Let It Bother You" (Fred solo); "A Needle in a Haystack" (Fred solo); "Night and Day"; "The Continental"; "The Continental reprise (Dancing Departure)".
Gingery Goodness Factor (GGF) - (1-10): 9.0 - ...approaching maximum Gingeryness... every facet of Ginger's persona is on display here...from the sassy dame playing 'hard to get', to the warm singing of the Continental, to the downright mad Mimi (when Guy makes the 'late night' call to Mimi's quarters), and obviously to the ethereal dance scenes...the full gamut of Ginger's 'modes' are on display in this film...and it's awesome. In fact, not sure where a '10.0' will occur, but maybe somewhere down the road...
Film Quality (1-10): 9.0 - Well-restored by WB.
Huey's Review for GINGEROLOGY: ...Well, this is the one we've all waited for... Ginger's first 'full affair' with Mr. Astaire is indeed a splendid time for all involved.
The Gay Divorcee starts, appropriately, in gay Paree, where American dancer Guy Holden (Fred Astaire) and his 'wanna-be' lawyer pal Egbert Fitzgerald (Edward Everett Horton) are in dire straits concerning a nightclub bill... to 'pay' it, Guy proposes a hoofing exhibition, which generally lets them off the hook, and generally confirms that this will indeed be a musical.
The two head back to London, which is Eggy's home base... well, as fate would have it, a enchantingly beautiful young lady named Mimi Glossop (Ginger Rogers, natch) and her beautifully scatterbrained aunt, Hortense Ditherwell (THERE'S an appropriate surname for ya), played superbly by Alice Brady, are headed into port at the same time. Well, we just HAVE to get these two kids together, right? (Guy and Mimi, not Eggy and Hortense...although that occurs later...)
The first meeting of Guy an Mimi is arguably my favorite 'introduction' between characters in the GandF franchise (with Petrov's rather brusk intro to Linda in 'Shall we Dance' being my fave...hey, this would make for a decent poll question...stay tuned on that, y'all...) - Mimi is 'fettered' (as opposed to that popular word in Hueydom, 'unfettered') to a steamer trunk...and Guy comes to the rescue, more or less... he 'loans' his coat to her to cover up, and as a 'bonus' ulterior motive, to somehow get her to return it to him and obtain her 'contact info'.
Well, she returns it, without any info... to which Guy bursts into song and dance, and the proverbial 'Needle in a Haystack' is documented.
Of course, improbabilities regarding chance meetings never get in the way of Ginger and Fred, right? So, Guy is driving around in his 1924 Smart car convertible, and 'bumps' into Mimi in her ultrafine 1929 Model J Duesenberg convertible (yeah, I'm gonna see that car one day soon, y'all...), which prompts her to take off like a bat out of the bad place... thus we witness the first documented GingerDrive on film - yeah, there's a lot of 'fake background' shots, but there are quite a few 'live' scenes as well...the scene where Ginger hangs a SHARP left, slinging dirt skyward, is quite impressive...probably wasn't her actually driving, but, then again, would ya be surprised?
...anyway, somehow Guy knows a 'shortcut' (...yeah, he's been in London for what, a few weeks now, so, he knows all the shortcuts, right? There's that 'improbabilities be danged' mantra again...) and he corrals Mimi, and proposes marriage then and there (dudes moved fast in that regard back then,,,especially when Ginger was the subject...) - well, Mimi takes off again, but is a BIT open to Guy, hinting at a future meeting (really?)...
Well, Mimi and Aunt H get down to business the next day, meeting with Eggy regarding their 'quest'...to set up Mimi with a 'correspondent' (yeah, I also thought that was a dude who reported news from other countries...), in order for her to receive a divorce from her crackpot husband, Cyril Glossop (William Austin), who doesn't want to divorce her (duh...).
Of course, Eggy and Aunt H have a 'past', which keeps the Eggster on edge for the rest of the film while she flirts with him (like EEH needs ANYTHING to get riled up about) - meanwhile, Guy, who is hanging around the hotel with Eggo, spies Mimi...and the chase is on...again. He runs her down at some beach house/dance floor/sound stage area, and proceeds to woo her into the perfection that is 'Night and Day'... this routine cements GandF as a team, regardless of Astaire's misgivings...you know, money talks... anyway, after the dance, Guy spouts off a phrase that is the 'password' for Mimi's correspondent, the eventual Rodolfo Tonetti (Erik Rhodes) - of course Guy knows it from Eggstatic, who gave it to RT as well.
So, Mimi thinks Guy is the 'guy'...and tells him to show up at her room at midnight... of course Guy doesn't understand the invite, but is he turning it down? Errrrrrr...that would be a NO. The scene where Guy shows up and Mimi enters is classic...and really shows just how well these two work together, not only as a dance 'team'... of course, the misunderstanding is drug out as long as possible, and when Mimi finally figures out Guy is 'just a guy', and not THE 'guy', that's about the time RT shows up. Well, it ends up that Tonetti is 'locked in' for the assignment, but of course Guy is there for the duration as well... so, they in essence just 'hang out'...until Guy and Mimi sneak off to partake in the epic production number 'The Continental' (which Ginger sings so nicely, BTW.. hey, did she get an Oscar for her efforts? Most likely not... she MADE the tune, tho, y'all!)
Well, after the big routine, all parties hunker down for the evening...well, RT and Guy are on the couch and chair, of course... whilst Mimi slumbers alone.
Morning breaks, and all heck breaks loose, as the 'detectives' which were to pop into the room and catch Mimi and Tonetti together have been detained; however, against all limits of probability, Mr. Glossop himself (the crackpot) shows up instead... well, that should be a good stopping place for those of you who have yet to view this film... but, it's one that isn't much of a shocker at the end.
As I stated somewhere before, I believe this assembly of characters is my fave of all of the GandF films... Alice Brady in particular is awesome...wish she would have been in a few more of these, honestly...
Favorite Ginger Moments: Well, this segment is almost a 'misnomer', anyway, as ALL Ginger moments are my fave! But, if I had to pick one scene, I think the 'endgame of the car chase' would be my fave, as Mimi shows her confident sassy side, while credit to Guy must be given as well, totally undaunted by Mimi's 'rebuffs'. Of course, the GandF dance scenes are in their own category, and are obviously the high points of ANY GandF film...that's what the whole film is built around, right?
As to a 'theme', well, one may be loosely woven within the caps, but many will be 'stand-alone', which will generally be the 'M.O' henceforth...although, for some reason...Star Trek comes to mind...go figure... I honestly know little or nothing about the show... (Huey's mind is a decidedly strange mechanism, y'all...) ...and before ya squawk about it, I took basically NO caps of the 'Night and Day' dance , as it could generally fill a post in and of itself... I DID, however, take a few from 'The Continental' dance, simply because I think that dress is my all-time fave on Ginger...hey, she used it for the cover of her bio, so, she must have liked it too, right?
...this one is just a classic Ginger pic... post 'Night and Day'... NO caption needed...
...yeah, I know about as much regarding fashion as Calvin Klein knows about four-barrel carburetors, but...I know this...THIS dress completely ROCKS... perhaps my fave Ginger dancin' dress... "
Mr. Tonetti was converted to Galacitcism by Cyril, thus renouncing Trekdom in toto, which included the painful removal of a rather discreet 'Spock' tattoo on his person... it is not known as to Tonetti's current whereabouts, although Cyril has been sited in Cleveland, Ohio on a few occasions, in full Cylon regalia...
Aunt Hortense went on to marry the Spock impersonator, and they currently reside in relative seclusion on the outskirts of Piscataway, and have been the subject of more than one of the episodes of the hit cable TV series, 'Hoarders'."

Other Reviews:
"Ginger Rogers, who developed into a charming comedienne as well as the screen's most able song-and-dance entertainer, has no little to do with the picture's merriment." - New York Sun
"Last season it was the Carioca which persuaded the foolhardy to bash their heads together. Now the athletic RKO-Radio strategists have created the Continental, an equally strenuous routine in which you confide your secret dreams to your partner under the protective camouflage of the music... Both as a romantic comedian and as a lyric dancer, Mr. Astaire is an urbane delight, and Miss Rogers keeps pace with him even in his rhythmic flights over the furniture." - New York Times
"As in Flying Down to Rio, Miss Rogers proves herself the nearest thing that Astaire has had to a partner since sister Adele took leave of him. Her dancing in Night and Day and in a seductive number called Continental is distinguished in its grace and felicitous rhythm." - New York Evening Post
From GINGER: My Story: "With a new contract under my belt, and a hefty raise, I began The Gay Divorcee in June 1934. More than just a successful sequel to Flying Down to Rio, this film was affirmation of RKO's belief that "Ginger and Fred" were big box office."
Miscellaneous Stuff:
--- This was the first of twenty films in a row Ginger would make for RKO Radio Pictures.
--- Ginger actually drove her own car in this film, the 1929 Model J Duesenberg... in case ya missed it, here's a post back from the first of the year about the car, which is still with us today...and yeah, I'd give WAY more than I actually have for that baby, y'all... Ginger's Duesenberg .
--- The song 'The Continental' (music - Con Conrad, lyrics - Herb Magidson) won the very first 'Best Song' Oscar for 1934...strangely enough, one of the other songs nominated for the award was 'The Carioca', from 1933's Flying Down to Rio.
--- The film was also nominated for four other Academy Awards in 1934, including Best Picture, Art Direction, Music Scoring, and Sound Recording.
--- The producers originally wanted Helen Broderick for the role of Hortense, but she wasn't available. I'd say Alice Brady filled in quite nicely...
--- The film was adopted from the stage play 'The Gay Divorce', but the title had to be changed to 'The Gay Divorcee', since divorce was a bit more 'controversial' back then, evidently.
--- If the jumpsuit that Betty Grable 'knocks knees' with EEH in looks familiar, that's because it appeared on Dolores Del Rio in 'Flying Down to Rio' hmmm...wonder where THAT garment is, and how many $$$ is it worth?
--- Erik Rhodes also played Tonetti in the stage play 'The Gay Divorce'.
--- 'The Continental' sequence(s), which clocks in at almost 18 minutes, was the longest musical number in a film, until Gene Kelly's 18-1/2 minute ballet number in An American In Paris occurred in 1951.
GingerFilm Ranking: #01 of 27. Not even close...my favorite Ginger character to date...period. Her overall persona just radiates in this one...Sandrich may have been a goob, but he did capture Ginger well for this film...the 'impromptu picnic' scene has Ginger with enough spunk to really push it to the top in and of itself...
Of course, some credit must be given to Freddie, as they just work well together... but Mimi is sassy enough in the 'courting' part of the film to give it the top spot.

Up Next: Romance In Manhattan... .Ginger jumps back into the 'solo' side of things, in a nice little film co-starring Francis Lederer... from what I remember, Ginger is a 'no nonsense' girl here, not overtly sassy, but still quite enjoyable...
Until then, as always...
KIG, Y'all!!!

Delightful captions -- gave me some chuckles while I relax in my air-conditioned apartment, watching my beloved Washington Nationals, a day after we got our power back. Trying to imagine Ginger (in her prime) as a "Trek" character, though in the '60s mindset of the original series, women were little more than decoration. Perhaps Ginger, being a "star," would have played a supervising character while still wearing minidresses to show off those splendid legs.
ReplyDelete...first of all, great to hear services have been restored to y'all up there...I know EXACTLY what ya went thru w/o power for at least a week... and, cool you are a Nat fan...never been to a game, but my wife's Aunt and Uncle (the ones who always invariably stumble upon Gingery stuff wherever they go), who are in Ellicott City MD, sent me a 'Nat hat'...pretty cool. Around here, most folks are Braves fans...eh, they were cool back in the 90s with that awesome pitching rotation, but... really nonplussed by them at this point. I truly root for the Cubs, so... baseball season is typically over for me oh...mid-June or so... of course, our minor league team is the Barons... where Michael Jordan did his baseball 'experiment'... if you've seen 'Space Jam' (the Looney tune film...eh, ok, but...not like the 'original'), he's with the Barons at the first of that...
ReplyDeleteOK - well, heck...one of these reviews will work thru baseball...I figure Ginger was a fair sports fan...not a 'fanatic', but enjoyed whatever she attended.
...as for Ginger as a Trek cast member, that would have been pretty cool...heck, just as a 'guest star' for an episode... but for the life of me, I don't know where this idea came from...I know just enough about this show to be dangerous... a LOT of googling and Wiki was utilized in this review process...
Well, stay cool, VP!!!
KIG - and Caroley!!!

We get no Trek Ginger...Just Love Boat Ginger!
ReplyDeleteWould she be good on Mad Men? Oh, yeah...Joan's sister....
:0
...Well, of course, ANY Ginger ANYWHERE is fine with me...
ReplyDelete...and, sad to say, I really don't know much about Mad Men...it's one of those deals where..."I missed the first season, so now what?" Maybe I can catch up on Netflix or whatever... I know it's a pretty good show,from the general consensus...
Glad to hear all is well again, Ron!
KIG!

Another brill review Hu!!
ReplyDeleteOn 'Chance is the Fools name for Fate' line Guy of course supplied it to Egbert in the first place, Egbert was hardly going to use anything else and with Guy and Mimi's meeting clearly being fate what else was Guy going to say ;)
ooof - think this comment snuck in 'under the radar'...it's kinda hard to keep up with the 'pending approval' comments, and then replying to all of them...well, for ME, anyway :-]
Delete...my Ma loves that line...it's one of those 'tells' that usually distinguishes you as a GandF fan...
...on to Romance in Manhattan! Hopefully can get rolling soon on it...may well watch it tomorrow as part of Gingertennial+1 proceedings... I think I'll watch Roxie Hart as well... it's one of my faves, don't know why...other than...it's Ginger, of course...
KIG, Kat!

Possible Rogers recipe alert!
ReplyDeleteA 64-page booklet, "Foods And Fashions Of 1936," is being auctioned at eBay, although I'm not 100% certain the stars contributed the recipes they are pictured with. Carole Lombard is shown with an appetizer called "angels on horseback" (equine activists rest easy; no actual horsemeat was involved in this concoction!), while Ginger is next to a recipe for "pimento salad a la Parisian" (so named because it uses French dressing, I guess). You can learn more about this fascinating artifact (there's even a link to the item, should you wish to bid) at http://carole-and-co.livejournal.com/526001.html.
KIG and KIC!
...I know Ginger was pretty active in the kitchen, as a lot of the ladies were back then...well, not that they aren't NOW...er... well, before I dig THAT hole any deeper...
ReplyDelete...this looks pretty cool! I've seen (and own, I believe) a few articles where Ginger has recipes...not sure if they are hers, or if they are just 'assigned to Ginger', but either way it's cool! If I can gather up enough of 'em, maybe a post topic will emerge.... altho I am NOT that well versed in the kitchen, I can consume mass quantities with the best of 'em... like the late great Cajun chef Justin Wilson used to say... some folks are Gourmets - they are fond of dining...others are Gourmands...which is a p-i-g hawg, is what that is... that's where I fall, I reckon... of course, Ginger could serve me a combat boot filled with cottage cheese and I'd devour it in short order... :-]
Thanks for the info, VP!

I've discovered a few Lombard recipes over the years, of which my favorite is spinach soup (anyone who wants to try it out -- it's delightfully thick and hearty -- can find it at http://carole-and-co.livejournal.com/469753.html).
DeleteHi! Great site! I'm trying to find an email address to contact you on to ask if you would please consider adding a link to my website. I'd really appreciate if you could email me back.
ReplyDeleteThanks and have a great day!
Thanks for the kind words, Madison!
DeleteIf you would, just 'expand' your profile, and I can get with you there...or, I think oyu could do that on mine...I'll check to make sure it is 'interactive' or whatever... thanks!

Once again your captions cracked me up. You got some wonderful screenshots, too. I was a trekkie and think Ginger would have made an excellent addition to the bridge in her Uhura attire. :)
ReplyDeleteInterestingly enough (and you may well know this) whereas "The Continental" dress is on the cover of the hard bound copy, this is the cover for the paperback...which is what I own.
Ginger: My Story cover
I expect Ginger didn't select the dress for the paperback edition since it was released well after her death...unless, that is, she planned ahead.
...that's the 'Pick Yourself Up' dress, no?
DeleteI have a copy of that one - actually also bought one for my Ma as well...but I noticed it doesn't have all of the pictures in it, for some weird reason...
ALSO, I have the first 'paperback printing' of the bio... IT has just a 'face pic' of Ginger, hand-tinted...really is pretty cool also... I'll post it here in a sec... as Hu cannot figure out how to put a link into a reply to save his bloomin' neck...
...well, see I KNEW there was a reason the Star Trek theme emerged! Again, I just knew enough about the show to be 'familiar' with it, as 99% of folks born in the sixties and before should be... when I was running thru the caps trying to figure a 'loose theme', the one with Hortense and Mimi at the 'station' just said, 'OK...they are here for some kind of convention...hmm...' so there's where it started...and for some reason, I started thinking about how EEH did favor Nimoy just a bit... so it snowballed from there... came out better than I thought it would...
..and yes, Ginger would ROCK a typical TOS female cast member's skirt... :-]
Oh, BTW, I am REALLY assuming you left the comment on the Movies Unlimited site regarding Fox Classics being released...and lobbying for Hat Check Girl... if ya haven't 'revisited' over there...ya got an 'Amen' for your efforts! Now, if that's ANOTHER Barbara out there looking for HCG...well, that's some powerful mojo there, that is...:-]
KIG, Lady F!

Yep, that's the "Pick Yourself Up" dress -- rather cool dress. If I remember correctly, it had lead weights in it so it would flow with Ginger's movements.
ReplyDeleteAnd no that wasn't me on Movies Unlimited. I think I visited that blog just once when you directed us to a contest to vote for Ginger.
A couple of follow up comments...
I agree with you about Alice Brady's performance. Whereas Helen Broderick acquitted herself well in "Top Hat" and "Swing Time," I doubt she would have been any better or even as good as Brady's portrayal of Aunt Hortense.
Also, you caught the perfect "Night and Day" photo...which you called post Night and Day. This is part of what set Ginger apart from all Fred's other dance partners. She SOLD those dances both on the floor and with her expressions. Great capture!
Finally if I remember correctly, Ginger's Night and Day dress was the one Mark Sandrich wanted Ginger to substitute for the feather dress. Any female could have told him YOU DON'T WEAR THE SAME DRESS AGAIN. :)
...yeah, I think Ginger employed 'weights' in a few of her dresses...I KNOW she had them in the sleeves of the 'Face the Music and Dance' number in FTF, because Fred said she walloped him in the mug once with them... I know that when 'dissecting' the Continental dance, there were at least a few spots where that dress, as long and frilly as it was, when in 'high twirl mode' almost revealed...'Virginia's Secret'? :-] (I might get in trouble for that one) ...so 'weighing down the hem', as it were, probably helped things work out...
Delete...whoa, so that's ANOTHER Barbara looking for HCG? Awesome! I wasn't sure about the last name...I'm pretty bad with names...well, I DEFINITELY remember Barbara Ann!!! :-) I think I just assumed that - Barbara...HCG...you know... well, I'm gonna have to go back over there and 'explain' that - might pick up a new G-ologist! ...although I'm not sure G-ology is big enough for TWO Barbara-s! :-]
Helen is the quintessential 'wiseacre lady', and is awesome at it...Swing Time really works well with her and Victor Moore... but yeah, Alice is the 'quintessential ditz'...and just as awesome... as aforementioned, she REALLY reminds me of Madeline Kahn, one of my fave actress/comediennes EVAH...
Thanks for the screen cap 'thumbs up'...I caught a few of those when she is just gazing away...that's 'shooting fish in a 5 gallon barrel with an AK-47' type deal with caps...just point and shoot! And there's lots of those pics of that moment out there, but I was trying to 'cap' one with a bit different expression, although it doesn't change too much... but yeah, it's hard to explain experiencing GandF in action...again, I know NOTHING about 'tripping the light fantastic'...well, I have the 'tripping' part pretty well figured out... but I think their 'routines' truly go beyond just 'dancing'... well, you understand...it's a G-ology thing, right? :-]
I believe that dress WAS the one Gooberhead wanted to 'recycle'...which would have been nice, of course, but... 'feathers were their destiny...' hm...kinda like 'chance is the fool's name for fate', eh?
Well, hope you have a great Gingertennial+1 weekend, Lady F!!!
KIG!
