Fred and Adele Astaire in “Smiles”

I see Fred and Adele are a trending topic today. I took this photo in the Ziegfeld Movie Theater in NYC before it was gutted and modernized. I think the movie promotional reel  for this stage show is the only surviving footage of them dancing, but maybe a historian can comment with better info. Mentioned in the book 📚 “The Astaires” by Kathryn Riley. There might be a YouTube clip of that somewhere.
