Love Is Good For Anything That Ails You - Bernadette Peters

The movie balances the drab despair of the depression era and the characters' sad lives with brightly colored dream-fantasy lavish musical sequences. Fred Astaire, who was powerless to prevent the reuse of his old footage detested the film: "I have never spent two more miserable hours in my life. Every scene was cheap and vulgar. They don't realise that the thirties were a very innocent age, and that should have been set in the eighties — it was just froth; it makes you cry it's so distasteful."

"I'm disappointed that it didn't open as a blockbuster and I don't know what to blame, other than it's me and not a comedy. I must say that the people who get the movie, in general, have been wise and intelligent; the people who don't get it are ignorant scum."
- Steve Martin
