Swing Time is a 1936 American RKO musical comedy film set mainly in New York City, and starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. It features Helen Broderick, Victor Moore, Eric Blore and Georges Metaxa, with music by Jerome Kern and lyrics by Dorothy Fields. The film was directed by George Stevens.
Noted dance critic Arlene Croce considers Swing Time Astaire and Rogers' best dance musical, a view shared by John Mueller and Hannah Hyam. It features four dance routines that are each regarded as masterpieces. "Never Gonna Dance" is often singled out as the partnership's and collaborator Hermes Pan's most profound achievement in filmed dance, while "The Way You Look Tonight" won the Academy Award for Best Original Song and went on to become Astaire's most successful hit record, scoring first place in the U.S. charts in 1936. Jerome Kern's score, the second of two he composed specially for Astaire, contains three of his most memorable songs.
The film's plot has been criticized, though, as has the performance of Metaxa. More praised is Rogers' acting and dancing performance. Rogers herself credited much of the film's success to Stevens: "He gave us a certain quality, I think, that made it stand out above the others."Swing Time also marked the beginning of a decline in popularity of the Astaire–Rogers partnership among the general public, with box office receipts falling faster than usual, after a successful opening. Nevertheless, the film was a sizable hit, costing $886,000, grossing over $2,600,000 worldwide, and showing a net profit of $830,000. The partnership never again regained the creative heights scaled in this and previous films.
In this Swing Time clip, Lucky, Astaire, saves Penny's, Rogers, job by showing how much she has taught him. The first true dance number with the two, the other being with Fred fumbling and pretending to be a terrible dancer. Both scenes, however, go to the same song, Pick Yourself Up, this scene without lyrics and much more lively with the other more calm, with lyrics, between the two. Music by Jerome Kern and Lyrics by Dorothy Fields

"Pick Yourself Up" is a popular song composed in 1936 by Jerome Kern, with lyrics written by Dorothy Fields. The song was written for the film Swing Time (1936), where it was introduced by Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Ginger plays a dance instructor whom Fred follows into her studio; he pretends to have two left feet in order to get her to dance with him. It served as the theme song for the short-lived 1955-56 prime time television variety series The Johnny Carson Show. Lyrics: [He] Please teacher, teach me something, Nice teacher, teach me something. I'm as awkward as a camel, that's not the worst, My two feet haven't met yet, But I'll be teacher's pet yet, 'Cause I'm gonna learn to dance or burst. [She] Nothing's impossible I have found, For when my chin is on the ground...

Rosi Ahlbeck ist Trompeterin einer einst legendären Frauen-Bigband, den „Swing Girls“. Während ihrer Geburtstagfeier werden Rosi 40.000 Euro aus der Wohnung gestohlen. Der Traum vom Haus an der Ostsee, der Heimat von Rosi Ahlbeck, ist damit zerplatzt. Rosi ist zutiefst betrübt. Wer ist der Dieb? Eine der rüstigen „Swing Girls“, die auf Rosis Feier allesamt mitbekommen haben, wo sie das Geld versteckt hat? Oder einer der Nachbarn? Rosi wohnt in einem großen Mietshaus und hat dort herumposaunt, dass sie derzeit viel Geld in ihrer Wohnung deponiert hat. Mads Thomsen und „Harry“ Möller ermitteln verdeckt: Der Hausmeister macht sich verdächtig, der junge Nachbar Arne – und Sonja, die für einen Menü-Service arbeitet und Rosi täglich eine warme Mahlzeit bringt. Als die Polizisten dem Täter auf di...

Hey Wayne, what you goin' to do?
I'm gonna go juke joint jumpin'
(Refrain)
Well the stars are shinin' in the east Texas air
Another fifty minutes and I'm gonna be there
It's been a long drive, but everything is a goin'
alright
I'm on a Bladewater highway, goin' juke joint jumping
tonight
Well the juke joints honey, where I learned how to sing
Where they honky tonk all night and Hank Williams is
king
Gonna do a little dancin', keep at it 'til broad
daylight
We're on a Bladewater highway, goin' juke joint jumping
tonight
Count it down daddy!
[Interlude]
Well I might go dancin' or a shootin' pool
But it's a hep trap baby, and the cats are real cool
Well it's the real thing, it sure is a welcome sight
It's where I cut my teeth and I'm goin' joint jumpin'
tonight
Well next time you go travel brother here's a good play
You get your automobile and go to Texarkan'
You gonna do little drivin', keep at 'til broad
daylight
You're on a Bladewater highway, goin' juke joint
jumping tonight
(Texaco)
[2nd Interlude]
(repeat refrain)
