How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A buoyant pre-Code musical where wealth and romance collide in a frothy confection of waltzes, witty banter, and elaborate production numbers. It's the kind of film that asks you to surrender to pure entertainment and charm.
