He was awaiting a call to the studio's "jungle" outdoor set, where he was to appear in a brief longshot for "Finian's Rainbow." Astaire is a sensitive, even touchy man, and interviewer learns ito skirt certain areas. For instance, he is bored by references to his age, which happens bo be 67.

He is oblivious to the passage of time and couldn't tell you -that it had been 11 years since he filmed his last screen musical, "Silk Stockings." He has done straight roles, in "On the Beach," "Notorious Landlady," "The Pleasure of His Company." Nor does Astaire talk about his dance partners, who have included Rita HaywoxiMi, Vera Ellen, Judy Garland, Leslie Caron, Audrey Hepburn and Cyd Charisse, as well as Ginger Rogers. "Finian's Rainbow" is the first musical in which he does not dance with a glam- ourous partner. "It's such a relief," he sighed, while avoiding any aspersion against his famed partners. "Those romantic dances take so long to rehearse, and it's murder trying to devise new ideas." He has long refused to repeat numbers. "This role I'm playing (Finian) is a reaJ character, a salty old Irishman.

All of the dances come out of the character and the situations; I don't have any real solos as such. And I like it that way." The hallmark of the Astaire art has always been the search for 'perfection. First on the stage, then in films and lately in television, he has continued to insist on class, without compromise. That's why you will never see him in a substandard movie or even on a television variety show. "I would never do a variety hour; there are too many of them," he remarked.
