5.0 out of 5 stars Made In Paris- Romantic Comedy Made For Ann-Margret, April 18, 2010

This review is from: Made In Paris (DVD)

Made In Paris is a romantic comedy that seems custom made for Ann-Margret. The film was released on February 9, 1966 by MGM. This colorful, gorgeously filmed movie features a simple story, but really showcases Ann-Margret's perfect figure in beautiful clothes against beautiful Paris and New York City in the sixties.

Ann-Margret plays Maggie Scott, an Assistant Fashion Buyer for Barclay Ames, a New York Department Store. Her boss, the store's Fashion Buyer is Irene Chase played by the lovely Edie Adams. Irene is getting married and must send Maggie in her place, to beautiful Paris, to purchase the gorgeous Fontaine gowns that Barclay Ames carries exclusively in their New York store. The store's owner's son is Ted Barclay played by Chad Everett, who definitely has a romantic interest in Maggie. Ted calls his friend in Paris, Herb Stone played by Richard Crenna, to ask him to keep an eye on Maggie, as he has heard of Marc Fontaine's (Marc Fontaine, the Parisienne Coutier is played by Louis Jourdan) reputation as a suave womanizer. When Maggie arrives in Paris, Marc Fontaine eventually takes a romantic interest in her, as does Ted's friend Herb Stone, although Herb's interest seems to be just for a night. The 3 men don't have much personality, like James Garner or Rod Taylor have in Doris Day's romantic comedies, but perhaps they pale in comparison, being up against Ann-Margret's abundance of energy in her acting and dancing. Besides a few dance numbers in night clubs, Ann-Margret has a singing scene with Reta Shaw where they sing, You Gotta See Your Mama Every Night, Or You Can't See Your Mama At All. Count Basie And His Octet provide some great music. Also included is the original theatrical trailer, which was a real surprise, as the majority of the WB Archive Collection movies just have the movie with no extras.

This is a typical sixties romantic comedy, the plot and storyline are simple, but a gorgeous 24 year old Ann-Margret steals every scene. The film has the most beautiful clothes, apartments and scenery, which are great eye candy for viewing. This is a rarely found movie and is definitely worth buying if you like sixties romantic comedies, but until Amazon's price comes down, you can find this movie on the Warner Brothers Archive Collection website for $17.99 plus shipping.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great 60s comedy, January 5, 2011

This is one of Ann-Margrets funniest movies she did, Made in Paris is classic mid 60s comedy. The best thing I noticed about this dvd as well is that it was all shot in wide angle so you saw much more of the movie than you did when they showed it on the TCM channel which they only ever showed in full screen so you lost quite a bit of the cinematic scope of the movie. Ann-Margret at this time is at the height of her beauty and the costumes they have her wear in this movie compliment her stunning figure. One draw back although is I wished that Warner Brothers had put the featurette of Made in Paris on the dvd which show case Ann-Margret wearing the costumes in a screen test that was narrated by the late Richard Crenna who played Herb Stone in the movie. Overall Ann-Margret who played the young and naieve Maggie Scott Assistant fashion buyer for Barclay Ames in the film played it right to the tea, her dance sequences are always fantastic to watch as she does so in one of the nightclub scenes where she really gets her groove on. For the true Ann-Margret fan this is a must have movie to have in your collection.
