Kelly plays an ex-GI who loves Paris and loves even more an alluring (but engaged) perfume-shop clerk (Leslie Caron in her beguiling screen debut).Dance sequences spun around Gershwin songs accent Kelly's romantic pursuit.And the final 17-minute ballet -- combining the title symphony, Impressionist set stylings and Kelly's unique talent for telling a story in dance -- lifts this winner of six academy Awards including Best Picture into the ether of timelessness.Love Is Here To Stay, Kelly sings.So Is An American In Paris.
