Thanks to its lengthy ballet finale, visual homage to French painters and Gershwin score, some people (or at least Oscar voters) apparently mistook this for some kind of high art in the early Fifties. Today, it is simply hoity-toity snob torture of the worst kind and damn near unwatchable. Kind of telling that whenever the movie is excerpted in tributes today, the only scene you ever see is a few minutes of that endless dance sequence at the end. Begs the question: If this movie is so great, how come they never can find any other compelling clip?

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.

I enjoyed the bonuses, but it's the film itself: Beautiful Restoration! I've previously had a vhs tape and then a dvd of this favorite film, and never considered them deficient, but then I watched this version. It is so vivid.

An American in Paris is a fantastic musical film from the 50's. I always loved Gene Kelly and while he starred in other great musicals, this film is probably my favirite.
