Director: Vincente Minnelli
Actors: Gene Kelly, Leslie Caron

Opportunistic American artist Jerry Mulligan (Gene Kelly) -- once a struggling painter -- lives in the City of Light enjoying the patronage of a well-heeled, amorous American gallery owner. Until, that is, he meets and falls desperately in love with a willowy French street urchin (Leslie Caron, in her big-screen debut) who happens to be engaged to Mulligan's best friend. Seven Academy Awards went to this tour-de-force movie musical.

Not bad, but not Kelly's best. Gets a bit bogged down in plot rather than let the songs and dance speak.

Ham acting from gene kelly can't detract from the magnificent dancing sequences.

Outstanding movie that has a simplicity and joy that many movies today lack. Loved it! Bring back the musical!

I love old musicals, but this one had me reaching for the remote in the end, to zip through dance scenes that became wayyyy too long, with no break for any kind of words, storyline or plot.
