i be a fan of judy garland and vincente minnelli and and gene kelly and but this movie just leave me cold . i be expect another american in paris from minnelli and so perhaps i be expect too much . the movie be short on song and short of impressive dance number . i be impress by the very expressionistic kelly dance a mococo on the ship . i be also impress by the nicholas brother in be a clown and too bad the song be so annoying . i also enjoy judy attack kelly with bric a brac . check lorna luft autobiography for some interesting information on that scene . actually and the movie have what must be some of cole porter most annoying song and especially nina . also and judy and gene yell constantly like screechy child . the plot be thin which be par for the course for musical but it be not save by impressive dance number or by memorable song . i suspect the best part of this movie be leave on the cutting room floor . please and some movie restorer and find those bit of film and show u what the movie could have be .
