    What an actor! George Raft has a hypnotic stare and a magnetic presence while he dances with the touch of a butterfly and smooth feet. He owns Carole Lombard with his eyes alone. They dance equally as well as Fred and Ginger although George is all mobster macho man while Fred is fancy. George loves so intensely that you find yourself hurting during their breakup time. He has done it to me! Now I have to hunt down all of his mobster movies. I noticed here that he is famous for his dancing to the point where the cameraman does solo shots of George alone without his partner! He is better than his everyday Cuban partner. But George and Carole are inseparable!

    Paramount had a winner with 1934's "Bolero", and quickly re-teamed George Raft and Carole Lombard for this sequel. Like James Cagney, Raft was best known for his gangster films, but both men started off as stage dancers; taking their skills to Hollywood. And most anything with Carole Lombard is usually worth watching.

    Got her hair right in the final scenes. What a dress! I haven't seen any dress that spectacular in any movie of any era! And it would never look better on anyone else. George was a great dancer, in his own view, not as good as Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire, but perhaps even better than them in emotional expression and sensuality

      @@secretariatgirl4249 I knew something was wrong. Here's the right answer to your question. is "Bolero" was a pre-code movie. "Rumba" was made after the Hayes Code came in1934 so it was not as risque as "Bolero". The audience preferred Pre Code. Personally, I liked both movies but nothing takes the place of that sexy dance scene in Bolero.
