[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 442398, member: 5079"] Everything about this is weird. Holland looks nothing like Fred Astaire; Gene Kelly, maybe. Astaire was, as far as I know, opposed to being portrayed on screen and apparently his widow and estate have continued the objection. I don't think a person necessarily gets to decide if a biopic is made anymore than they can prevent a person from writing a biography, but it makes the vibe around this project awkward. Mostly, though, I just don't think Astaire had an interesting life. He was a great dancer and a hard working professional but I don't recall anything particularly interesting about his personal life other than, maybe, a minor rivalry with Ginger Rogers. [/QUOTE]
