About Royal Wedding
Fred Astaire dances on the ceiling in this 1951 Alan Jay Lerner musical for MGM, directed by Stanley Donen (Singin' in the Rain). The appealing story finds Astaire as part of a brother-and-sister act (along with Jane Powell) that travels to London at the time of Queen Elizabeth II's wedding. Astaire and Powell each find romances that threaten to break up the act, but that's mostly fun window dressing in a movie better known for some truly creative sequences made vivid by Donen, including Astaire's famous dance with a hat rack and his duet with Powell, "How Could You Believe Me When I Said I Loved You (When You Know I've Been a Liar All My Life)?" --Tom Keogh Amazon.com

we purchased a few 'wedding' themed films as a group activity for the bridesmaids, this was a particularly cute film. beautiful dancing, classic happy ending...everything you need for a good girls night in.
January 6, 2009i love fred astaire so he was the only reason i liked this movie. but if you want and/or need a good fred flick fix, skip Royal Wedding and watch Daddy Long Legs with Leslie Caron or Funny Face with Audrey Hepburn.
December 16, 2008This movie is absolutely wonderful!!!! I love watching old movies, and this one is great. Fred Astaire dancing on the ceiling!!! wow!!! They don't make movies like this any more, such a shame! All these wonderful stars are terribly missed!
August 24, 2008Fred Astaire's dancing is always great and the scene where he dances on the floor, wall and ceiling is unforgettable (How did they do that?). Jane Powell makes a great partner for him and Keenan Wynn's double appearances as Fred's London and New York representatives are funny.
May 24, 2008If you like musicals, this is a must-have. Astair's famous dancing on-the-ceiling number. Real footage of the original Royal Wedding.
