Movie Reviews

Groucho Reviews - 10/10 by Peter CanaveseA triumph for tireless dance advocate Kelly, the Freed Unit, and the American musical itself. [Blu-ray]
Apollo Guide - 10/10 by Brian WebsterThe combination of Kelly's dance and charisma, Gershwin's music and Minneli's direction makes this a movie that's hugely enjoyable, even for those who don't generally look for movies that are packed with dancing.
Time Out - 10/10 by Geoff AndrewA musical both ludicrously overpraised (especially in Hollywood) and underrated.
Common Sense Media - 10/10 by Joyce SlatonUnforgettable musical is great for parents and kids alike.
Observer (UK) - 10/10 by Philip FrenchThe Gershwin songs are magnificent, and the climactic ballet a tour de force that won the great Hungarian-born cameraman John Alton an Oscar.
Tim Dirks' The Greatest Films - 10/10 by Tim DirksAn American in Paris (1951) is one of the greatest, most elegant, and most celebrated of MGM's 50's musicals, with Gershwin lyrics and musical score
Chicago Tribune - 10/10 by Howard ReichWhile not nearly the musical it's cracked up to be, this 1951 film is absolutely required viewing for anyone who wants to see the studio system (MGM style) at its gaudiest, most Byzantine height. Art and technology have never been in closer harmony than in this Vincente Minnelli-directed rendition of George Gershwin's concert masterpiece.
CineVue - 10/10 by Joe WalshThe sumptuous colours, outstanding choreography and toe-tapping tunes are nothing but first-rate.
Austin Chronicle - 10/10 by George MorrisThe camera tracks, cranes, and dollies through the dance space, anticipating with the boldness of the greatest director working at MGM in 1951, that the New Wave is, indeed, not so very far away. Finally, like all of Minnelli's collaborations with Lerner (Brigadoon, Gigi, On a Clear Day You Can See Forever), An American in Paris is a paradox - a musical that embraces solitude and romantic despair. It is a resplendent motion picture.
The Spectator - 9/10 by Virginia GrahamIn the musical line there has been little of any quality since On the Town; so it is with a deep contented sigh that I can now point a recommending finger at something nearly as good, almost as stimulating and undoubtedly aesthetically superior.
