Customer Reviews of Daddy Long Legs
charming tuner of the Jean Webster novel DADDY LONG LEGS, Jean Webster's novel of a young orphan being sponsored by a mysterious benefactor, is perfect material for a splashy movie musical and the result is this 1955 charmer starring Leslie Caron and Fred Astaire. <

>Jervis Pendleton III (Fred Astaire) is a rich playboy with little care for the outside world. On a business trip to Paris, he encounters Julie Andre (Leslie Caron) an enchanting 18-year-old orphan. Determined to see her succeed, he sends her to a college in America. <

>Leslie Caron looks beautiful and Fred Astaire is suave and charming. The score features the hit song "Something's Gotta Give" as well as the infectious dance number "Slue-Foot". Roland Petit and his ballet company staged the several striking dream sequences (they also contributed the ballet sequences in the Leslie Caron vehicle THE GLASS SLIPPER, and Caron was a pupil of Petit's). <

>Also featuring Fred Clark, Thelma Ritter, Terry Moore, Kathleen Giveny and Ray Anthony's orchestra.
This Film Is For Romantics
I'm currently on a kick to buy all of my all time favorite romantic movies and this is definitely one of them. I fell in love with this movie when I was a kid and have enjoyed watching it ever since. The dancing -- how could it not be great with Astaire and Caron? The music -- two fabulous songs came out of this movie: "Dream" and "Something's Gotta Give." The incomparable Thelma Ritter adds her wonderful presence. (Watching this film again, I suddenly realized that three of my favorite movies have her as a supporting player: Daddy Long Legs, All About Eve and Pillow Talk). And there's a wonderful dance sequence at the college gym called "Slue Foot."
If you are an Astaire fan or a fan of great musicals, you owe it to yourself to check this one out.
a great classic musical
Fred Astaire and Leslie Caron are wonderful in this film. They dance so beautifully and make a wonderful couple. Leslie's cotumes ar ebeautiful and elegant. It's a great story as well.
