The title sounds like the result of an acrimonious divorce proceedings, and serious talk of divorce does enter into the screen play, although actual divorce was a censor's no-no in this era. .........Usually, the dancing, sometimes singing, and sometimes acting team of Gower and Marge Champion was a specialty act, or they were the second leads in a musical.. But, here , they are in charge, and, between drama segments, put on song and dance productions, occasionally involving only one or the other. Cute, seductive, Monica Lewis, and clumsy, middle-aged, Dennis O'Keefe are the second leads, as would-be makers of a romantic quadrangle, when the marriage of the Champion's characters appears to be on the verge of breaking up. But, a surprise last minute reconciliation provides an apparently happy ending...............I was not familiar with Monica, as she mostly appeared on TV programs. She was a real looker, with a vivacious and seductive personality, and gets to sing or dance several times. In fact, she gets to sing the title song, which was first aired back in 1933, in "Dancing Lady", sung beautifully by Art Jarrett(hear at YouTube). It had been been subsequently recorded by various others, but I'll bet not as seductively as by Monica, who clearly directs the lyrics at Gower, ending up in his face, even though Marge is sitting next to Gower! Eventually, she will essentially propose to Gower, and he will tell her to buzz off, he still being lonely for Marge............. After a slow start, there is a long segment where they perform a series of short song and dance productions, which is perhaps the most interesting portion of the film. They are then invited to perform on Broadway, when Marge finds herself unexpectedly pregnant. Unfortunately, her doctor advised her to stop performing for the duration of the pregnancy. This elevates her understudy, played by Monica, to fill her role. This leads to the often soap opera-like remainder of the film, with Monica looking to snare Gower, when he insists that henceforth Marge should be a stay-at-home mom. After 4 years of this, while Gower and Monica have been starring in a series of successful shows, Margi is fed up, and pleads with Glower to let her costar with him in his next show. But, the insensitive Glower turns her down, so she files for separation, and starts her own show. They fight over custody of their girl. Soon, their manager, played by O'Keefe begins to hint that he's enamored of Marge, if she permanently separates from Glower. However, his courting strategy is rather clumsy and subdued, and he gives an oration to Marge about the disadvantages of divorce, when he detects that she's still taken with Gower. ..........Some time is spent oohing and ahing at Marge's new baby. Fast forward 3 -4 years, and the resulting cute Mimi Gibson sometimes is present to give more of a family feeling, to counter the marital problems. Mimi does some good acting for a 3y.o., especially when she is being held by Marge, who is crying...........I especially like Marge's solo performance to "Derry Down Dilly", and the superb climactic daydream ballet by the two, in which Gower begins by dancing with Monica, eventually replaced by Marge. Unfortunately, Marge emerges from this daydream sad and alone, as she returns to the reality of a probable divorce from Gower. However, O'Keef acts as cupid in getting them back together, and an improbable super quick reconciliation............. In summary, a must for anyone who loves to watch the Champions or Monica perform. .............I saw it on TCM. However, there is a beautiful remastered DVD floating around. If you can't wait, there are several clips from it, including the 'dream' ballet, at You Tube. While you're there, you might as well check out their dances to "Smoke Gets In You're Eyes'(my all time favorite of theirs) and the flirtatious "I Won't Dance", both from "Lovely to Look At", released the same year as the present film. Unfortunately, I don't remember them being a part of "Showboat", which several others talk about..............Incidentally, Marge just recently died at the considerable age of 101, 40 years after Gower passed away from cancer. Also, Monica lived to 93(and incidentally, Doris Day lived to 97!). Makes you wonder if stage and film dancers don't have the right profession for a long life?!
