Floral Capital Exotic Dance

This rare musical in the history of cinema, which is not only the representative work of Gene Kelly and Leslie Caron but also the debut work of Lisa Minnelli, takes place in post-war Paris. American painter Jerry Mulligan (played by Gene Kelly) stays in Paris after his retirement, but his works receive little attention. Soon, Jerry meets a French girl named Lisette (played by Leslie Caron) at a restaurant and develops an admiration for her. Meanwhile, a wealthy American female sculptor is willing to sponsor him and make him famous, but on the condition that he becomes her lover. The most outstanding scene in the film is a seventeen-minute ballet carefully designed by Gene Kelly. This dance is ever-changing, splendid, and extremely touching. Additionally, the film features many other wonderful scenes, such as the duet by the Seine River.
