SYNOPSIS

He  wears  a  ratty  old  cardigan instead of tails, a battered felt hat in place of a topper -- but one glimpse of those agile feet and  you  know he's  Fred  Astaire.  The  great  entertainer  sang  and danced his last musical lead in  Finian's  Rainbow,  director  Francis  Ford  Coppola's exuberant  movie  of  the  1947  Broadway  hit.  Astaire plays an Irish rogue who plants a stolen crock of leprechaun  gold  in  the  soil  near Fort  Knox to reap what he thinks will be a rich harvest. In tow are his spirited daughter  (Petula  Clark),  a  love-struck  leprechaun  (Tommy Steele)  and  a bigoted Southern senator (Keenan Wynn) transformed by misbegotten magic.
