September 17, 2009Great songs and dancing, and it's a bit of a privilege to have both Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire in one film.

November 14, 2006It's creepy to watch Audrey Hepburn hook up with a marionette. She's a doll and that's the only reason to see this movie.

October 22, 2009This was so cute! Audrey Hepburn is, as always, gorgeous and delightful. I love the 'intelligent, witty book store clerk meets beautiful, romantic, and fashionable Paris lifestyle' ploy. Audrey Hepburn truly is 'the Quality Woman.' Fred Astaire was, also, perfection.

January 28, 2009Hepburn is radiant and Astaire wooden in this rather uneven 50s classic. They both sound fantastic but Astaire is not his usual graceful self and Hepburn is rather forced. But who cares when she looks this good.
