Additional Information
Splashes of vivid color light the way through Stanley Donen's very modern musical. 'Think pink!' commands Miss Prescott (Kay Thompson), head of Quality Woman fashion magazine, and American women obey--all except Jo (Audrey Hepburn), an intellectual young woman who tries to prevent Miss Prescott from staging a photo shoot in her bookshop. Photographer Dick Avery (Fred Astaire) sees something interesting in Jo's "funny face," and soon he's lured her to Paris to model during the day and discuss philosophy in smoky cafes at night. Modeling Givenchy clothes, Hepburn steals the color in every scene, and her funny face enchants all, including Dick and, unexpectedly, the dark and handsome philosophy master whose theories Jo adores.<BR>The musical numbers are primarily duets--Jo and Dick glide together in each other's arms, Jo and Miss Prescott find unexpected solidarity in womanhood, and Dick and Miss Prescott cavort in the philosopher's salon--but the most engaging scene is when the three come to Paris, plead exhaustion to one another, then secretly race around the city, singing and dancing and reveling in being tourists.

  • S'Wonderful, S'Marvelous!

    S'Wonderful, S'Marvelous! Paris, the City of Light, shines even brighter when Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire team up for the only time and bring their luminous starpower to this exquisite musical featuring songs by George and Ira Gershwin. This dazzling romp -- filmed on location in Paris -- garnered four Academy Award nominations. In the role of bookstore clerk transformed into a modeling sensation, Hepburn showcases singing and dancing skills she had honed on the London stage, performing "How Long Has This Been Going On?," a "Basal Metabolism" dance in a cool-cat bistro and more. Astaire, as the fashion photographer who discovers her, conjures up his inimitable magic for sequences that include his "Let's Kiss And Make Up" matador diversion, a heavenly dance with Hepburn to "He Loves ...

  • Outstanding songs&dancing/old style Hollywood perfection/makes you smil

    This film tells the story of a girl (Audrey Hepburn)who is a bookstore clerk and is transformed into model when Fred Astaire (photographer)and his team arrive at the store for a fashion shoot. The plot lines in old style musicals are never very strong - they are not meant to be, but its the sheer talent, music, (in this case songs by George & Ira Gershwin)& costumes that showcase exactly why Hollywood Musicals were extremely good. You have to remember there were no special effects, so each routine had to be danced again and again to get it just right. You will never see talent like this again. Its a perfect film for a rainy afternoon, and one which makes you feel good - need I say anymore!!

  • SIMPLY MAGICAL!!

    I bought this for my sister who loves Audrey Hepburn but had to watch it myself as it was set in my favourite city in the entire world...Paris! What a beautiful film. Beautiful actors. Beautiful city. Beautiful story. Really love the old classics but usually stick to Marilyn Monroe films as she is my ultimate idol. I was really impressed by the magic this film offered.
