Follow The Fleet (1936) ****

Excellent Fred and Ginger musical with one of Irving Berlin's finest scores. The best song is "Let's Face The Music And Dance":

There may be trouble ahead
But while there's music and moonlight and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance
Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill
And while we still have the chance
Let's face the music and dance
