Leslie Caron (born July 1, 1931) is a French film actress and dancer.
She was born in Boulogne-Billancourt, France. She was discovered by Gene Kelly while dancing with a ballet troupe. The famed dancer chose her to appear opposite him in the classic musical An American in Paris.
She went on to star in Daddy Long Legs with Fred Astaire, Gigi with Louis Jourdan and Maurice Chevalier, and Lili. She continues to act, appearing recently in the acclaimed film Chocolat. She is one of the few leading ladies (or actors of any type for that matter) from the classic era of MGM musicals who is still active in film.

Watching Gigi, apparently the cat was drugged because it hated Leslie Caron and the director was mad. Poor cat.

Of course, it doesn't help that Leslie Caron looks like a child. Did everyone involved in this go home icky at the end of the day? Yeuch.

Thought I'd enjoy Gigi, but so far it's just creepily paedophilic, youth-obsessed and faintly misogynistic. I love Leslie Caron, though.
