Carefree is a 1938 film starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. It is the shortest of the films that they made together, featuring only four musical numbers. It is often remembered as the film in which Astaire and Rogers shared a long, languid on-screen kiss at the conclusion of their dance to "I Used to Be Colorblind," all previous kisses having been either quick pecks or simply implied. The film is also a reunion for the pair, after a brief hiatus following Shall We Dance.
It was nominated for three Academy Awards: Best Art Direction (Van Nest Polglase), Best Musical Scoring (Victor Baravalle) and Best Song "Change Partners", written by Irving Berlin.
