this is hands down one of the best movies that i have ever seen. i love french musicals (if you like this, you'll also like "peau d'ane" and "8 femmes") and i burst into tears when gene kelly appeared, i was so excited. francoise dorleac gives an adorable performance, as does catherine deneuve. the musical numbers are fantastic, the costumes are colourful, beautiful and well coordinated, and the choreography is stunning. everything down to the cameos is exquisitely placed. definitely uplifting, well-cast, and lovely. the only qualm i had with this movie is that i wanted more... i would love to see what happened to the characters where the story left off. they were so lovable that one cannot help feeling attached to them.
