Private Screenings: Leslie Caron (1999)
*** (out of 4)
Leslie Caron sits down with Tuner Classic Movies host Robert Osborne as they discuss her career in Hollywood, which she got started with the help of Gene Kelly. Her first film, AN American IN Paris, made a huge impact on her career and this led to other films like LILI, GIGI, THE STORY OF THREE LOVES and IS Paris BURNING?. All of these films are discussed here with Caron who interviews quite well as she has an answer for everything that's asked. Osborne, as usual, does a great job at keeping the conversation going with his always interesting questions. I must admit that I haven't seen too many of Caron's films but hopefully that will change in the near future. This interview certainly does a good job at highlighting her career and making one want to see the movies. She also discusses Kelly, Francois Truffaut and Cary Grant.
