I love this movie despite what others say! Some people think that Fred Astaire is to Old for Audrey Hepburn but I don’t think that it matters. Audrey does all of her own singing and has a lovely voice and Fred Astaire is also incredible. There are some really good dance scenes in this movie and the costumes are some of the most amazing ones out there. I love the ending to this movie too! Jo Stockton (Audrey Hepburn) and Dick Avery (Fred Astaire) fall in love and it ends with them floating down a river on a raft. I rate this movie five out of five popcorn!- Oh and Maggie Prescott (Kay Thompson) is also really funny, a good singer and a good dancer! How could I forget her?
This is a really good movie. I love the tale of how a young girl working in a book store becomes a model so she can meet her hero, and of course the classic ending to an Audrey Hepburn movie, she falls in love.
