 Bright Lights Film Journal | Second Chorus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Instead of starring in a film specifically written for him and featuring songs by Broadway’s greatest composers, he was shoehorned into a role that, except for the dancing, any of a number of other actors could have handled.
Because the film was originally conceived as a vehicle not for Fred but for Artie, whose 1938 recording of “Begin the Beguine” was hugely popular and made him in the eyes of many the new “King of Swing,” dethroning Benny Goodman.
Most of the rest of the film is taken up by a contest of oneupsmanship between Fred and Burgess to win Paulette’s hand, which only serves to alienate her from both of them.

 YOUR SECRET IS SAFE WITH PAYAMI: Film Freak Central Interviews Babak Payami
In town to discuss his second film, Raye makhfi ("Secret Ballot"), Payami was not the craggy visage in a fisherman's knit wool sweater with a shock of white hair--the living incarnation of Samuel Beckett as would befit the author of a film that plays like a cross between "Waiting for Godot" and "Endgame"--that I expected.
While the gender dynamic and the political commentary remains an important element in Secret Ballot, what emerges with the director's second film is a confidence in didacticism that transcends tedium with a sly sense of humour and a healthy embrace of the absurd.
The film doesn't seek to undermine the merit of the democratic process, nor does it seek to undermine the integrity of society at large.
