FUNNY FACE Centennial Edition on DVD
Paris, the City of Light, shines even brighter when Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire team up and bring their luminous star power to this dazzling, Gershwin-tune-filled romp - now presented as a two-disc Paramount Centennial Collection edition! Hepburn is Jo Stockton, the shy, reluctant Greenwich Village bookstore clerk who is transformed into a modeling sensation by Fred Astaire, the fashion photographer who discovers her and grooms her for stardom. Kay Thompson adds to the fun as Maggie Prescott, the publisher and editor of Quality magazine, who agrees that Jo has the "new" and "fresh" qualities Prescott seeks for her publication's new look. And who could resist undergoing a complete transformation, when Paris is the destination... and love is in the air? Timeless songs, glittering Parisian settings and Stanley Donen's skilled direction make Funny Face a song-and-dance extravaganza that will delight and entertain you, now and forever!
