An American in Paris (1951)
Gene Kelly charms his way through romance, friendship, and the artist’s life in this joyous musical classic. <em>Part of the series <a href="/technicolor-series">The Wonderful World of Technicolor</a>, a seven-week celebration of Technicolor’s most dazzling achievements, showcasing the films that define cinema’s golden age of colour. The Tuesday evening screening will be introduced by series curators Adam Cook and Hilary Jay.</em> As you catch up with this year’s Oscar nominees, why not revisit one of the greatest films ever to walk away with Best Picture? <em>An American in Paris</em> follows American expat painter Jerry Mulligan (Gene Kelly) as he pursues love, art, and friendship in Paris, navigating romantic entanglements and rivalries along the way. The film stands as one of Hollywood’s supreme entertainments—a joyful fusion of Vincente Minnelli’s visual sophistication and Kelly’s athletic, charming artistry. A massive hit upon release, it is also a pinnacle of Hollywood experimentation, culminating in a breathtaking 17-minute dream ballet that remains one of the most dazzling and ambitious set pieces ever staged on film. Few movies capture Technicolor’s expressive possibilities with such verve, making this a perfect entry in our celebration of colour at its most sumptuous.MusicalPT1H53MRated G2026-03-01Gene Kelly
