Amazon.com essential video:
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." --Tom Keogh

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.

Very enjoyable. My husband and I are seniors and found it refreshing to review such an outstanding program....and one without a lot of 4 letter words in it which seems to be standard in todays movies. The acting and story were great. The dancing was superb! We had both seen it when it first came out and it was a joyful experience to view it again. Highly recommended.

I saw AN AMERICAN IN PARIS for the first time when I was ten years old, back in 1954, and I think it's the second best musical of all times only because SINGIN' IN THE RAIN is better. In both of them, the personality of Gene Kelly shines as actor, dancer, singer and choreographer. Not a coincidence. Here, director Vincente Minnelli deserves the credit as the real inspiration of the film, because his trade mark is absolutely clear in the sequence of the ballet, a glorious gem unsurpassed until now. ...

An American In Paris is a simple love story at heart, embellished with lavish sets, baronial dance sequences, comedic interludes and grandiose music. It is one of the finest musicals ever made, featuring the marvelous talent of Gene Kelly and newcomer Leslie Caron, along with the voice of Georges Guetary and the piano skills of Oscar Levant.
Heartrending romance is illustrated through elaborate musical sequences that top nearly everything that came before it, and although considered an ... Read More
