Printemps à Paris

Jean-Claude Roy would become ,later on, a specialist of the porno movie as Patrick Aubin; in this film ,there's a forerunner :a strip tease scene ,the only daring thing in what is a harmless vapid work.

Filmed in color with wide screen,which was very rare in the French fifties: it's to throw pearls before swine,because it's a bomb, a nothing movie.

Boy meets girl whose bike has a flat tire : he drives her to Paris for she intends to visit the French capital ;As far as the screenplay is concerned ,there's nothing else to add : Paris by day,with La Concorde ,la Madeleine ,le Sacré-Coeur ,and mainly , which predates Roy's future "career ", Paris by night with Moulin Rouge,French Can Can , the above-mentioned strip tease .......and an appearance by Charles Trénet.

One can save a good gag: a bum (why did Jean Tissier get involved in that business?)steals an angler's wallet, then takes it back to his owner and gets a reward !Crime does pay!

Just the story of a young provincial woman , Gisèle who wants to visit Paris and a Parisian elegant man (using a car with a Belgian registration). A relationship who begins with mistrust: the young woman is cute: for her the Parisian men who speak with elgance are seductors. So begins the play of hide and seek between them. In the night they visit cabarets and on the day they walk through Paris.

A pleasant comedy with the good performances of Christine Carère nd Philippe Nicaud.
