An American in Paris

	An American in Paris
	by MGM (Video & DVD) Sales Rank: 16554 Price: $14.98

A GI (Gene Kelly) stays in Paris after the war to become an artist, and has to choose between the patronage of a rich American woman (Nina Foch) and a French gamine (Leslie Caron) engaged to an older man. The plot is mostly an excuse for director Vincente Minnelli to pool his own extraordinary talent with those of choreographer-dancer-actor Kelly and the artists behind the screenplay, art direction, cinematography, and score, creating a rapturous musical not quite like anything else in cinema. The final section of the film comprises a 17-minute dance sequence that took a month to film and is breathtaking. Songs include "'S Wonderful," "I Got Rhythm," and "Love Is Here to Stay." <i>--Tom Keogh</i> *Viewer Reviews* Martha Bamattre and Madge Blake are superb in this film, and though not as famous as either Gene Kelly or Leslie Caron, are the real reasons for the film's success. Usually the best people in any film are those whose last names are alphabetically at the beginning of the alphabet, and once more that turns out to be true with Bamattre and Blake in this Vincente Minnelli musical which won the Best Picture Oscar. Leslie Caron, whose last name begins with C, comes close to being good in the film; but it's people whose last name begins with B who are the real stars. Back To Top
