Gigi Reviews
Wide screen too wide
It's a good movie, but no My Fair Lady, imo. My problem was though I have a wide screen TV, this film went way off my TV in either direction, and the figures were rather large. Never had a film do that before. There didn't seem anyway to get two characters on the same screen unless they were close toether. Never had this problem before. No adjusting would work.
I enjoyed Maurice Chavalier the best and especially enjoyed his performance when he sang with Hermione Gingold. "Ah Yes, I Remember it Well." Leslie Caron is much better at dancing than singing. She was too big to be a child, and her character's change from child to young lady happened far to quickly. Actually, she never looked the child she was supposed to be.
It's a snore
I am a proclaimed lover of musicals and movie musicals and I was incredibly disappointed by Gigi. As if the overdone french accents aren't enough to turn one off altogether the acting is ridiculously overdramatic and forced. The one redeeming thing in most musicals is at least the song and dance aspect, however for me that might have been the worst part. The songs were repetitive and catchy in a way that makes you want a lombotomy or temporary memory loss to get those stupid tunes and words out of your head. The moral of this story is, spend your time and money on the plethora of wonderful movie musicals and stay far away from this one
