Dementia Friendly Screening: Top Hat (U)

Dir: Mark Sandrich | USA | 1935 | 93 mins
Cast | Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Edward Everett Horton

Please note the house lights will be slightly raised throughout to provide a more relaxed and comfortable setting. Everyone is welcome to attend this screening, but we ask that you are mindful of the context and understand that people may need to regularly leave and return to the screening.

A madcap screwball comedy classic, Top Hat stars legendary dance duo Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers at the height of their talents. Glamorous and enthralling, a Depression-era diversion beautifully scored by Irving Berlin, it’s the most successful and beloved picture of the iconic, prolific Astaire/Rogers partnership (which saw them star in an astonishing nine musicals from 1933-9).

When American dancer Jerry (Astaire) comes to London to star in a show produced by bumbling Horace (Edward Everett Horton), he wakes up wealthy tourist Dale (Rogers) by tap dancing in his hotel bedroom. She’s annoyed, but Jerry is instantly smitten and proceeds to pursue her throughout London, then to Venice – despite her reluctance, as she has mistaken him for (married) producer Horace…

A feel-good delight, Top Hat is filled with timeless songs (including ‘Cheek to Cheek’), masterful dance sequences and effortless style and panache.
