Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

SpecialsTarget Disturbing yet enthralling

Winifred The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

writers_reign On paper no one sets out to make a clinker but someone in the background got it woefully wrong in the planning stage of this one. In film terms Paris is its own reward and how hard do you have to work to make it sing. Harder by far than anyone on both sides of the camera was prepared and/or able to in this case. For reasons that don't really hold water Alec Guiness plays a gotrocks who takes his totally insipid twenty year old son to Paris. Without anything added you have a viable idea right there. On paper. In fact all concerned contrive to snatch a suet pudding from the jaws of a soufflé'. The chemistry on display between ANY two members of the cast would struggle to illuminate a Toc H lamp. The only reason I can think of for producing this is someone needed a tax write-off.

mark.waltz Colorful, sweet and tender, often lightly funny, this English romantic comedy deals with a widowed British father and his son who visit the city of lights and find a new kind of love that only Maurice Chevalier could sing about. The wonderful Alec Guennis is a perfect lady lover, quite different than the cad he played in the same year's "The Lady Killers". Vernon Gray is his much more serious son who has a more nervous reaction to romance, especially when his father begins to spend time with a much younger woman (Odile Versais) who has more in common with father than son. Gray, needing to lighten up, begins to see an older woman (Elina Labourdette) who has her hands full in loosening him up, while Sir Alec really gets his groove back.Among the funny moments are Sir Alec and Odile soaked by a street cleaner then trying to slink back into his hotel, Sir Alec caught outside the door wearing suspenders locked on the inside, and Sir Alec being caught in a tree by his finger wagging son. Sir Alec proves that it takes real talent to be funny, reminding me how certain lines he said years later while playing Hitler made me laugh because it sounded like his blind Butler from "Murder By Death" saying them. The film takes a twist near the end that comes out of nowhere, but I managed to just grin and bare it even if I didn't believe it. Even though I have no interest in traveling overseas, this at least did take me there again temporarily, just as I did a few weeks ago with the very different "Paris Blues", and as I have many times through "Funny Face", "Silk Stockings", "Gigi" and of course "An American in Paris".

blanche-2 Paris - Alec Guinness - color - one might think that would be enough, but alas, it isn't. "To Paris, With Love" is a 1955 Rank film about a father and son (Guinness as Col. Fraser and Vernon Gray as John Fraser) going to Paris in order to matchmake for one another. Plus, Col. Fraser wants more time with his son.They meet women, all right, but it seems that Col. Fraser is attracted to a young woman closer to John's age, and vice versa. A widower, he wasn't necessarily looking for love, either, but his quiet lifestyle bothers his son. "At 42," the Colonel says, "one has a few good years left." The perception of age has really changed.Unfortunately for all parties, the film moves like lead and is about as dull as a movie can get, except for the beautiful shots of Paris. Alec Guinness is marvelous but wasted. There is one very funny scene at the door of their hotel room, but it's not enough.Very hard to concentrate and stay interested in this film.

annmason1 I love Alec Guinness. And that's saying a lot after this film. Actually, he is not bad in it. He just seems to stand aside, be urbane and his usual delightful self, but invest nada. It is obvious the girl he is matched with is a featherweight, even as an inexperienced young French girl. Sir Alec wouldn't have chosen her when he was young and very obviously isn't too happy about it now.The interesting character is the brooding brother of the odd "Suzanne", another twit. "Donald" aspires to be a French Heathcliffe and I waited in vain for the source of his mystery. What deep dark secret was he hiding behind that forehead? Was he in love with the father's mistress? Why did he jerk Suzanne's hair when she plotted to bring the disparate parts of this turkey together on the country estate? Or perhaps he had simply had enough of her obnoxious acting.The film would have been charming with Guiness and the "older woman" reminiscing and seeing Paris together. THAT would have been a great story! Two lovely experienced people in a beautiful city after the destruction of World War II. Why didn't somebody come up with that? I suggest watching Alec Guiness in "The Card", a little known but worthwhile film.
