This time, it's...
...IN PERSON, from RKO - 1938. This is one that should have been distributed a LONG time ago, as it's Ginger's first 'solo' effort in terms of 'song and dance', sans Freddie... therefore a pretty interesting film, and DEF 'required Gingerologist viewing' (...well, they ALL are, but, you know...). Amongst all of that, the story itself is pretty entertaining as well, with a nice supporting cast, and a solid 'male lead' in George Brent. The only one about this one is that the dude keeps 'stringing along' Carol (Ginger's character, duh) as to her having to prove to him her identity as a film star... but that's pretty much the plot line, thus it is sustained for the majority of the film... Well, y'all probably know this one pretty well anyway, but for those who HAVEN'T seen it... rectify that situation with the purchase of this DVD... DO IT NOW!!!
...this is not the EXACT pose for the poster (which, BTW is dang near my favorite GingerFilm poster... Roxie might beat this one out by a smidge...), but it is the inspiration, for dang sure...
…Well, it's actually 'available for pre-order'... which honestly seems like I got 'burned' by this once, not sure if it was WB Archive or some other outfit, but... I'll just wait until it's available… even though it's a 'made-to-order' DVD (Most ALL WBA titles are...) For those who are less wishy-washy, HERE is the link to the pre-order...
AAAAAND, for the record, purt near EVERYONE over on the "It's a Ginger Rogers Thang" group on FB knew about this one well before moi, so... thanks for the solid updating over there, y'all… I need to step up my game here, yupyupyup…
Hope y'all are all doing well! I hope to get something going here, but... I'm still setting up shop (literally) for my new home occupation... I'm 'breaking even' at this point, with a fair bit of 'potential clients' ahead... here's hopin'!!!
KIG!!!
