Rasmussen Room"Can't sing. Can't act. Balding. Dances a little." Hollywood lore says these were the notes an unnamed studio executive wrote after seeing a screentest for dancer Fred Astaire. Not only one of film's greatest dancers, Astaire revolutionized how dance sequences were filmed. Author Susan Gibberman discusses Astaire's enormous talent and shows some of his best dance numbers throughout his career.
