You have some good stuff coming to you! My favorite dance sequences are in Roberta and Follow the Fleet. Mmmmm, "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes." As in Rio, in those they play the second bananas/comic relief to a boring alpha couple, and are altogether more entertaining than the main story. Plotwise, my favorite is Shall We Dance, purely because the marriage of convenience is my bulletproof narrative kink. (Also, GERSHWIN SCORE.)
I seem to recall fast forwarding through pretty much anything without either Fred or Ginger in Rio, but yeah, there were several excellent one-liners. Ahhh, the good old days before the Hays Code. ;)
