Plot
Guy Holden (Astaire) falls for Mimi Glossop (Rogers) without knowing she's married. She's trying to get a divorce, so her dizzy aunt and incompetent lawyer hire a professional correspondent to pose as her lover. When Guy unknowingly gives Mimi the code phrase, she thinks he's the faux beau, and she confuses his genuine interest for part of the act.An Oscar for Best Song went to "The Continental"
