Gigi (1958) - 3 stars

One Sentence Plot Summary: A rich, parisian jerk pursues an underage girl while onlookers sing.

Starring: Leslie Caron, Louis Jordan, Maurice Chevalier

Best of: Despite being a musical, it's mostly entertainaing in a cute sort of way.

Worst of: It's still a musical. Plus, I'm pretty sure the main romantic relationship is built around pedophilia.

I'd have liked it better if: the opening number weren't called "Thank Heaven for little girls." No, really...it is.

Also nominated: Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
