Ma Belle Marguerite/Guetary
Richard Green | Saint Louis, MO USA | 08/29/2005
(3 out of 5 stars)

"Delightful, intimate, charming. Includes the actual dubbing tracks for his songs from "An American In Paris," including the vocal from the outstanding Folies-style number, "I'll Build A Stairway To Paradise." Was there ever a more stylish song and dance man, than the Georges Guetary we see in that movie scene?



Interestingly, in his duet with Gene Kelly, "'S Wonderful," Mr. Kelly seems strangely threatened or desperately competitive with the ineffable Mr. Guetary. I was as shocked as Mr. Kelly to find someone more charming than he.



Most of the songs are in French (I think it's French!) but this does not hamper my enjoyment of the disc."
