Profile of Ginger & Fred
The mood of Ginger & Fred is bittersweet, sentimental, and touching. The plot centers around a TV show, dancers, and the life of a performer. It is a drama, foreign, and comedy movie. Stylistically, Ginger & Fred is surreal. In approach, it is realistic. The setting is Italy. Ginger & Fred happens in the 1980s. It is especially suggested for a date night.
Summary of Ginger & Fred
In Italy, dancers Pippo and Amelia -- once famous for their impersonations of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers -- reunite to perform one last ballroom routine on the TV show ''We Are Proud to Present.'' Now both show biz has-beens, Pippo and Amelia are billed alongside a veritable circus sideshow of dwarfs and celebrities. Soon the aging dancers take to the stage and transform the vulgar spectacle into a magical re-imagining of 1930s Hollywood.
