The Young Girls of Rochefort (1967) is quite simply, a fantastic 1960’s musical. It possesses a compelling storyline and a set of unique characters which keep the audience emotionally involved. The soundtrack was masterfully composed by musical legend Michel Legrand, and includes some of the best music ever to grace a motion picture. This is a movie that visually delights the viewer with bold colors and movement entertaining without the use of irony or pessimism. Catherine Deneuve, as Delphine, and her real-life sister, the late Françoise Dorléac, as Solange, are enchanting as struggling yet incredibly talented performing artists in this provincial seaside town of Rochefort. The film’s supporting cast, including American screen legend Gene Kelly, dance and sing in a way that could only come from this particular era of film. So, if you are a fan of 1960’s musicals such as The Sound Of Music, Gigi or Jacques Demy’s other famous work The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964) you owe yourself a viewing of this musical masterpiece. You will not be disappointed!Read full review
