An ultimate audio-visual feast

The story of an American painter picking up girls, but the narrative angle has long been a problem, and the plot has become weaker after that. But this classic musical film has three selling points to make up for: the famous tunes of American composer George Gershwin, the vigorous dancing of the protagonist Gene Kelly, and the uncompromising performance of director Minnelli. Created fancy scenes and scheduling. An ultimate audio-visual feast. (4/06)

Winner of the Oscar for Best Film (1951) and five other awards, ranked 68th in the American Film Institute (AFI) 100 Best Films (1998 Edition). http://mcyiwenzhi.blogspot.com/2009/01/american-in-paris-1951.html

    Decisively fell asleep at a certain singing and dancing exercise... This kind of meme of my own NTR is really useful!

    The heroine is ugly and cheating, the poor second male is so happy to be wearing a green hat, and the poor second female is used as a spare tire not to mention the money, the more the female lead looks like Sister Feng. . . . Supplement: Originally it was 3 stars, but the bizarrely long song and dance and the fucking ending made me change it to 2 stars
