Fred Astaire
The star actor, playing a poor dance-orchestra conductor, mugs for the camera - indicating an incomplete transition from [[silent film]]s.

In the simply plot, a wealthy Brazilian girl asks the conductor to dance with her, and the hotel manager fires the entire orchestra as punishment for crossing the barrier between guest and employee. The conductor gets work for the band in Rio de Janeiro and flies south with the girl (in a small plane which he pilots) while the rest of the band goes in a separate plane. The engine seems to have trouble, and they land on a convenient beach. Each hopes for a romantic interlude.

Much better acting comes from [[Fred Astaire]], playing the role of a musician.
