Made in Paris

About This Movie

So, 'Made in Paris' is this charming little romantic comedy from '66 that manages to capture that whimsical Parisian vibe really well. You’ve got Ann-Margret playing a fashion buyer who's swept up by Louis Jourdan’s suave designer character. The pacing is light, with a nice flow that keeps the mood breezy—perfect for a lazy afternoon watch. The performances, especially Ann-Margret’s, bring a delightful energy that feels genuine. There’s also this fun interplay between the characters that makes the love story feel more playful than sappy. Plus, Count Basie’s music adds a nice jazzy touch that complements the whole aesthetic beautifully.

This film has been released on a few formats over the years, but finding a quality print can be a challenge. It's not as widely talked about, which might explain its scarcity in collector circles. However, for those who appreciate light-hearted comedies and 60s fashion, it definitely holds a certain appeal. The cast is a notable mix that adds to its unique charm, making it a conversation piece among fans of that era.
