Starstruck: Gene Kelly's Love Letter to Ballet

Starstruck: Gene Kelly's Love Letter to Ballet (2021) is a music, drama film directed by Oscar Sansom rated 8.0/10.

In 1960, American dancer and actor Gene Kelly created for the Paris Opera Ballet an original choreography that was highly acclaimed at the time, yet rarely performed thereafter; a genius work that the Scottish Ballet, accompanied by the stirring and evocative score by composer and pianist George Gershwin, epitome of orchestral jazz, brings back to life sixty years later.
