Movie Reviews of Irma La Douce

Movie Review: A colorful, exquisitely-acted story, with a fabulous animated trailer.
Summary: 5 Stars

It's a wonderful film that will be viewable for all time. MacLaine, (spelled "McLaine" on the VHS cover!), and Lemmon are perfect, as is the entire cast of stellar talent.

I had forgotten that the trailer is absolutely wonderful. Drawn sketch animation - I don't know the correct term for this most talented artist. And the costumes by Orry-Kelly are tres tres perfect. Andre Previn, music. This is one time I would list all involved for their fine contribution, but you can look all that up for yourselves. Quintessential cinematography and direction.

Movie Review: Jack & Shirley invade Paris
Summary: 5 Stars


Looking for fun, laughter and Oscar-winning music by Andre Previn, then sit down and be thoroughly entertained by two of Hollywood's great stars Shirley MacLaine
and Jack Lemmon. Watch the sparks fly between (Jack) who plays a bumbling Paris Cop
who raids a house in the red light district in Paris where Jack's boss is a customer and (Shirley) who plays a street walker. Jack gets fired and becomes Shirley's pimp - The fun and laughter begin.

Movie Review: A Highly Entertaining French Farce
Summary: 5 Stars

An all time tour-de-force for Jack Lemmon and Shirley Maclaine (whose performance was Oscar nominated). Jack plays a poor schnook street cop, who bumbles his way from losing his job to pimping for Irma (Maclaine), the top hooker of the neighborhood, with whom he he falls madly in love. Jealously doing everything he can to prevent Irma from "plying her trade", Lemmon becomes his own rival in this hilarious comedy of bizarre plot twists.

Movie Review: Irma La Douce
Summary: 5 Stars

I ordered this because I hadn't seen it for many years....and
Jack Lemon was at his best. Shirley MacClain's portrayal of
a hooker in Paris was priceless....her green stockings are quite
memorable! I've seen it several times since I received it, and
find it totalling amusing each time.

Movie Review: JUST A CLASSIC
Summary: 5 Stars

SINCE I WAS A CHILD, WHEN WATCHED THIS FILM IN TV, I DREAMT OF BUYING A COPY IN THE FUTURE.
FINALLY GOT IT AND IS REALLY A TREASURE LIKE THE BEST OF THE BOOKS, THAT YOU CAN SEE MANY TIMES WITHOUT GETTING BORED.
