Three ladies at the mercy of Gene Kelly, and he at the mercy of them.
Gorgeous fruit cake of lavish splendour and hilarious comedy, with Gene Kelly still on top and matched by three crushing ladies, who both help each other out of complications with him and intrigue against each other and agaisnt him. His condition for keeping them in his troupe of three, "Les Girls", is that they must keep out of personal complications with private relationships. Of course they all get a complicated reltionship with him, and he with them, one at a time, ultimately ending up in court for libel, since one of the hree graces (Kay Kendall, the real star of this film as the unsurpassed British comedienne number one,) can't help wiriting a book about a certain suicide, which was more complicated than just one. Both she and Angèle are married at that, and when the truth gradually gets seeped out, their husbands get mixed up as well. It's a complicated story, and the great, final and ultimate question is, what is the truth? Which no one can amnswer, or at least not in one way.

The direction is superb by George Cukor, who always handled his ladies well, and as if that was not enough, the music is by Cole Porter. What could be any better? This film is simply replenished with only superlatives.
