My husband & I had a wonderful evening. What a treat to meet and hear Leslie Caron speak AND to see a movie classic. We would not have known of this event if not for Goldstar. We look forward to attending more American Cinematheque events. Goldstar, thanks for another fabulous evening!Written on Dec 20 2010

SPECTACULAR! Fell in love with Gene Kelly all over again and Leslie Caron is a charming and delightful woman who looks and sounds 15 years younger than her age. Remarkable! And the film premiered at this very same theater about 60 yrs. ago!! I always appreciate Goldstar for bringing special events to my attention and for saving me tons of $.Written on Dec 20 2010

Description
Leslie Caron began her career as a ballerina before Gene Kelly discovered her and cast her to dance opposite him in An American in Paris in 1951. She followed that auspicious debut with a series of beloved musicals that include Daddy Long Legs, Lili and Gigi, and tackled more serious roles in films such as The L-Shaped Room, for which she was nominated for an Academy Award. In the decades following her stint as an MGM leading lady, Caron has never ceased working, giving stellar turns in European art house films (Damage, Valentino) and contemporary comedies like Funny Bones and Le Divorce. In 2007, continuing her string of acclaimed performances, she received an Emmy for her guest appearance on Law And Order: SVU.
An American in Paris
1951, Warner Bros., 115 min.
Director Vincente Minnelli’s most popular musical and 1951’s Oscar Best Picture winner features irrepressible Gene Kelly as a struggling-to-make-it painter in Paris, caught between the romantic aspirations of a wealthy patron (Nina Foch) and his true love, played by the young Leslie Caron. Kelly sings, dances and cracks wise with his smart-aleck buddy, pianist Oscar Levant, while trying to choose his fate.
The film also received Academy Awards for Screenplay, Score, Cinematography and Art Direction. [35mm]
Discussion following the film with Leslie Caron, with a signing of Thank Heaven: A Memoir at 6:30 PM in the lobby of the theatre.
