Dancing Pirate

Songs by Rodgers and Hart highlight this early Technicolor treat that focuses on Jonathan Pride (Charles Collins), an 1820s Boston dance teacher shanghaied by buccaneers. He escapes when they hit California, but a misunderstanding leads to a death sentence... which is stayed so that he can teach the local ladies the waltz. With Frank Morgan, Steffi Duna star; look for Rita Hayworth as a dancer. Songs include "When You're Dancing the Waltz," "Are You My Love?" 83 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English; audio commentary; more.
