Its France, Its Astaire, Its Hepburn - what can I say...............



This finale musical number by Ms Audrey Hepburn and Mr Fred Astaire in the 1957 Paramount Pictures' Funny Face is one of the most endearing,revering,and inspiring romantic scenes ever photographed on the silver screen.The entire sequence (set in the picturesque Le Chateau de la Reine Blanche) is remarkably interspersed with brilliance,elegance,exuberance,jubilance,and romance. Ms Hepburn's beauty and poise (in her Givenchy's well-designed bridal silk gown) are solidly stunning. And Mr Astaire's charm and fervor (as the leading man and the dance master) are validly defining. 'S wonderful! 'S marvelous! That they should care for me! 'S awful nice! S' paradise! 'S what I love to see!
