Movie Reviews of Daddy Long Legs
Movie Review: Song and dance
Summary: 5 Stars
The narrative, musical expression, and dance numbers in the movie Daddy Long Legs are sweet and moving (Daddy Long Legs). The transfer to DVD is quite good. It is a movie to be cherished and enjoyed for there is little chance that this movie genre will ever return.
Summary of Daddy Long Legs
Fred Astaire becomes both the benefactor and suitor of Leslie Caron in this charming story of a playboy who falls under the spell of a beautiful French orphan. While traveling through France, Jervis Pendleton lll (Astaire) anonymously sponsors an 18-year-old girl named Julie (Caron), whom he sends to college in America. Two years later they finally meet face to face and start to fall in love. But complications arise and their happiness is threatened when Jervis embarks on a noble yet misguided attempt to do "the right thing" about their age difference. Featuring imaginative production numbers and a Johnny Mercer score that includes the 1955 Oscar? -nominated hit for Best Song "Something's Gotta Give", Daddy Long Legs is a song-filled blend of dance and fantasy for romantics of all ages.Drama DVD Video
