Quick Reaction: Funny Face

This is a lovely little movie with some enjoyable songs. It brought me right in, starting with "Think Pink!", and kept me interested with Funny Face", "Bonjour, Paris!" and others. I'll be honest though, I kept getting sucked out of the romance by how Fred Astaire is obviously twice Audrey Hepburn's age and no one ever says anything about it. I get it. Astaire is one of the best there ever was at this. He's literally the first person in IMDB's actor database. Of course the studios would want to use him for as long as possible. Just point it out a bit more in the movie. Is that so much to ask for?

Verdict: Weakly Recommend
