Jerry Mulligan is an exuberant American expatriate in Paris trying to make a reputation as a painter. His friend Adam is a struggling concert pianist who's a long time associate of a famous French singer, Henri Baurel. A lonely society woman, Milo Roberts, takes Jerry under her wing and supports him, but is interested in more than his art.
Vibrant, painterly sequences transform the screen into a living canvas during the legendary final ballet. This Technicolor dream trades standard stagecraft for a sweeping, cinematic movement that feels entirely fresh.
