With all eyes on the Paris Olympics, we thought it would be fun to revisit AN AMERICAN IN PARIS. The 1951 "Best Picture" winner, stars Gene Kelly and Leslie Caron singing and dancing to the music of George and Ira Gershwin. This one is guaranteed to turn any frown upside down.
Synopsis
When ex-GI Jerry Mulligan (Kelly) remains in Paris to pursue life as an artist, he is discovered by a wealthy patroness interested in more than his art. But Mulligan falls in love with a French shop girl (Caron) who is engaged to his best friend.
