An American in Paris Quick Review
I am usually interested in musicals, especially the ones that are in the AFI top 100. This film is not deserving. The relationship that is built between Gene Kelly and his female co star is lackluster at best. Maybe it was my mood?

Broadway must be the Champs Elysées
by Jacques COULARDEAU (OLLIERGUES France)
Another film I had never seen and that had become a myth. For the time it was a pretty good film with a lot of dancing, a small lot of singing, a great lot of romanticism, divided loyalties, but no jealousy, just love and gallant attitudes: better yield to the love of a lady than to marry her out of some forced gratitude. Then a sprinkle of French and good nice spots in Paris. A good touristic vision of that Paris that has probably never existed. and there we are we have a fairy tale in a satin shrine, but life is so much more different. Americans and bubble gum. The kids and everyone loves them. A real dream on and in a cloud. And yet it is charming even if with the charm of an absolutely surreal and unreal vision. In other words it is a perfect musical for Broadway, and that kind of show is perfect on a stage, and on a stage it is too often acted. The big gigantic staircases going down to the embankments of the Seine sound like some wooden sound stage because they are a wooden sound stage. It would have been so much better in the real setting. But I guess no camera or cameraman ever set one tip of a foot in Paris. That's what I regret about this mythic film: it does not carry nor convey the feeling and smell of reality. But a rather funny entertainment if you like forgetting about the real world.

An American in Paris
by Manuel Fernandez
Everything was great. I ordered three movies: An American in Paris, Meet Me in St. Louis and Oklahoma. I enjoyed them thouroughly. Everything arrived in a timely matter and the merchandise was in great condition.

S'wonderful!
by Dennis (New York, NY USA)
Always a pleasure to see Kelly on film at his best. Leslie Caron, in her first film, made it very clear it wasn't going to be her last.

An American in Paris (Two-Disc Special Edition) Summary
Musical about a young G.I. who remains in Paris after World War II to study art. Jerry Mulligan wants to live the life of the great painters -- holed up in a Montmartre garret, starving for his art. But the reality is less romantic than the fantasy, so when a rich American gallery owner offers to support him, he agrees -- even if the bargain means joining her entourage of lovers. Then he meets Lis
Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 09/16/2008
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."
