It still looks pretty good today, with marvellous Technicolored design, athletic dancing from Kelly and a superb Gershwin score, but some sequences have dated.

One of the great MGM musicals.

...its defining trait is insistence.

One of the most imaginative musical confections turned out by Hollywood in years.

It's hard not to be charmed by Gene Kelly's featherweight smiles and amazing dancing. But the film as a whole is -- and let no one contradict me on this -- a complete trifle.

Inspired by the late George Gershwin's impressionistic musical suite of the same name, the picture is one of the finest musicals Hollywood has ever produced.

While not nearly the musical it's cracked up to be, this 1951 film is absolutely required viewing for anyone who wants to see the studio system (MGM style) at its gaudiest, most Byzantine height.

Gene Kelly remains one of the best and brightest of the Golden Era musical stars and An American in Paris shows him in fine form.

Imperfect, then, but intermittently awe-inspiring.
