An American In Paris (DVD 2003)
This is one of my favourite musicals and an absolute feast for the senses.
As well as having a swiftly moving plot packed with romance, intrigue, and plenty of comedy to keep it light, the film is set in post-war Paris and the sets and costumes reflect this in their chic style and vivid colours. The incredible music is by Ira and George Gershwin and contains many famous standards including, 'S'Wonderful, S'Marvelous!' 'Love is Here to Stay' and 'Who Could Ask for Anything More?' The dancing is Gene Kelly at his best, both as lead and choreographer. Leslie Caron is his beautiful leading lady, with a French accent to die for!
All in all, it's one of those films that leaves you feeling insanely happy for the rest of the day, so is well worth watching!
