Leslie Caron = Not attractive


I think she aged beautifully, but in this movie, though she is an incredible dancer, I found her so utterly unattractive and unappealing! It really got in the way for me.

And does anyone else think Beth Broderick is the reincarnation of Nina Foch?!?!

She underwent a bit of a transformation between this film and "Gigi" where she is (to me, anyway) very lovely and appealing. Better makeup, hairstyles and possibly work on her overbite. And just maturing, growing into her looks, as most of us do.

She wasn't and isn't "conventional" looking.

I thought she was absolutely stunning. Far better looking than Nina Foch for example.
