I love the way Fred and Ginger are always in a conversation while they dance. The eye contact, and the total enchantment and joy with which they engage each other, is what makes their dancing so electric.

Some lovely remarks about  the often underappreciated Ginger Rogers (photographed here by Horst P. Horst), in honour of International Women’s Day: “Believe me, Ginger was great. She contributed her full fifty percent in making them such a great team. She could follow Fred as if one brain was thinking. She blended with his every step and mood immaculately. He was able to do dances on-screen that would have been impossible to risk if he hadn’t a partner like Ginger - as skillful as she was attractive.” - Edward Everett Horton in 1969 “There was a certain magic between Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers… there’s never been the same electricity as when Fred and Ginger danced together.” - Hermes Pan, circa 1969 “She had guts… The hardest working actress I ever knew.” - Fred Astaire in 1959 “Ginger was brilliantly effective. She made everything work for her. Actually she made things very fine for both of us and she deserves most of the credit for our success.” - Fred Astaire in 1966 “Ginger had style and talent and improved as she went along. She got so that after a while everyone else who danced with me looked wrong.” - Fred Astaire, circa 1967 “Excuse me, I must say Ginger was certainly the one, you know, the most effective partner I had. Everyone knows – that was a whole other thing, what we did. I just want to pay a tribute to Ginger, because we did so many pictures together, and believe me it was a value to have that gal. She had it. She was just great.” - Fred Astaire in 1976 “And of course Ginger was able to accomplish sex through dance. We told more through our movements instead of the big clinch. We did it all in the dance.” - Fred Astaire in 1981 “She’s a sweet person […] She was Fred’s best partner, because the chemistry was right.” - Hermes Pan in 1990
