Gigi (DVD, 2000)

I purchased this Product for my granddaughter and it arrived exactly as described....and at a very reasonable price. No disappointments!

If you like "My Fair Lady" and "The Sound of Music," you will love "Gigi." It's a fantastic film with great music set in 1900 Paris. It's a sweet story about a young man named Gaston, and how his platonic friendship with a girl named Gigi turns into love.

Louis Jourdon is a exquisite actor, and together with the rest of the cast, including Leslie Caron and Maurice Chevalier, "Gigi" is simply beautiful.

This movie should be in anyone's collection who likes musicals. Set beautifully during the turn of the century Paris, with wonderful costumes, romantic story and funny lyrics. It's a must see!

A little girls dream, to grow up, dress up and fall in love! A true cinderella story with some twists that make this movie all it's own! Lots of singing and dancing, if you love true classics you'll love this movie!

Thank goodness someone understands that people want the WIDESCREEN version. This movie must be seen as it was filmed to appreciate its beauty.

Directed by Vincent Minelli, this film stars Leslie Caron as the encourageable GIGI (from the original novel "Colette"). Stars Louis Jourdan, Hermione Gingold and the great Maurice Chevalier. The backdrop is Maxim's. A young starlet also has a role in the film by the name of Eva Gabor. Costumes are amazing. Music and Lyrics by the amazing team of Lerner & Lowe. Only 2 other musicals are on par with "Gigi," and they are "Singin' in the Rain" and "The Wizard of Oz." "Gigi" won 9 Academy Awards in 1958, including "Best Picture."

Recently purchased to replace the copy I gave to my daughter. Love the sets and costumes, as well as Maurice Chevalier in his quintessential character role. Romantic, indulgent, and the perfect movie to share over champagne and manicures.

My wife got this from the library and *loves* the story. She asked for a copy for her birthday and so I got it here.

She plays it over and over just for the music. She's read the original story and just immersed herself in this character.

I cannot recommend the acting or physical aesthetics of this film highly enough. It is a beautiful experience, totally.

Great Movie!! A fairy tale story ..... great for rainy days !Chevaliar is such a classy performer. The music is timeless.... A must see for anyone who likes classic musicals, Hollywood doen't make them like this anymore.

To me, everything about this movie is stunningly beautiful! I never cease to be touched by this sweet, romantic, visually appealing masterpiece. It is as if early 20th century french impressionist paintings come to life, accompanied by wonderfully memorable songs. I don't think it could have been cast any better. It's not surprising that it won 9 academy awards. It probably will always be at the top of my favorites list for classic movie musicals. A film the entire family can enjoy.

IT IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE OLD MOVIES AND VERY HARD TO FIND IN VIDEO STORES IN MY AREA. I AM SO GLAD TO HAVE A PLACE TO FIND OLDER MOVIES AND ONES I'M NOT AFRAID TO WATCH IN FRONT OF CHILDREN.

Not only was Gigi the best film of the year in 1958 with 9 Oscars, it remains one of our favorites today. The setting of Paris is beautiful and the songs timeless. Our other DVD of Gigi got scratched which prompted me to buy another. When ever we want to see an uplifting musical, Gigi is my wife's first choice. A wonderful movie that most will enjoy.

This is a classic. So many great songs and wonderful actors, not to mention best pictyre of 1958. I bought it to replace the VHS version I already had. Great movie to brighten your spirits. Great scenes of Paris, and maurice Chevalier, there just aren't actors of the chrisma any more

Music, set design, story line, costuming...ALL are magnificent! I watch this over and over just like a little kid!
Came in swift order in perfect condition.

Colorful characters, fabulous settings, a storyline with a happy ending and film moments that will never be duplicated, such as "I Remember it Well."

And of course, Maurice Chevalier . . . :)

Great Movie. A classic! Thisw movie will appeal to everyone. It has great music, great dancing, humor, love, etc. You will this movie.

My parents shared the appreciation of this movie and other like them with me ,I passed it down to my daughter who asked for it for Christmas. We enjoy watching the movie, sharing time and mother,daughter time together. It's sorta like the master card commercials, DVD $ -- spending quality time with your child -- Priceless!

I love this movie! They hardly ever make movies like this anymore. Firts of all it is a refreshing way to handle the subject of sex. It is about a young girl who does not give in to the norm in her family. All cast members are delightfully intertaining. The actors are all very talented and amusing. This is a musical and I love musicals! This movies keeps you interested from beginning to end. I recommend it highly!

When I spend this much money I think I should receive the merchandise. This is one of the movies we thouroghly enjoy and we were looking forward to viewing it again
