"So Near and yet So Far" is a song written by Cole Porter, for the 1941 film You'll Never Get Rich, where it was introduced by Fred Astaire, and accompanied a dance with Astaire and Rita Hayworth, choreographed by Robert Alton.[1] Astaire and Hayworth's performance was significant as the only occasion where Astaire's female dancing partner led the choreography of the dance.{{sfn|Ovalle|2010|p=85}} Porter's biographer, William McBrien described the song as "beautiful and highly successful".[2] Priscilla Peña Ovalle in her book Dance and the Hollywood Latina describes the song as a "latune", a "tune with a Latin beat and an English-language lyric" that was a "U.S. consumer-friendly approximation" of an Afro-Cuban rumba.{{sfn|Ovalle|2010|p=153}} Theorist Gustavo Perez Firmat discussed "So Near and Yet So Far" in his book The Havana Habit and described it as "the most elegant rumba ever captured on film".[3] Notable recordings
