Tous vedettes!

I was about 25 when I watched this movie in one of Moscow cinemas, where there was a cultural week of French movies. I liked it so much that I watched it twice or three more times later on. The music and the general atmosphere of the movie seemed so fresh and impressive for me, living in the communist country.

Lately I tried to find this film on DVD or in the Internet but only managed to get a RIP of quite bad quality. I'd like my daughter to watch this movie and I wonder if she will like it the same way as myself.

It was a pity to know that the actor who played the main male character, died of AIDS at the age of just 32.

Lovely is the word! In fact - inspiring! Not a rip-off of alder American musical classics like Wes-side story - or even Grease (why not). Excellent musical score. Plenty of intricate choreography - make this french attempt at American musicals - tasteful and definitely worthy of a home video collection. Story is not contrived at all. Some trite twists are cleverly disguised as necessities for the plot development. Multiple love stories are in a widest french variety range one can imagine! From "The Graduate"-like - to "Three's the company"-like. A lot of fun to watch. i gave it 10 out of 10 - just for that fun-to-watch part - and excellent musical score.
