    🎬Fred and Ginger Rogers performed "Smoke in Your Eyes" perfectly in the 1935 music movie Roberta. This is the music composed by American composer Jerome Kern and the composer Otto Harbach for the 1933 Broadway musical "Roberta". Fred and Ginger only tuned in the 1935 film adaptation. The most famous singing version of the song was recorded by "The Platters" in 1958, and the song ranked first on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.

      One take except for the jump up the stairs where you can see that the camera angle changed and the dance has to be stopped to accomplish this. It also allowed them to get that jump just right.
