"The Film
Musical At Its Best." -- Look
This 1955 Oscar-nominated musical romance features the incomparable Fred
Astaire in some of his most stunning dance sequences.
Daddy Long Legs is a magical musical, following a young French girl
(Leslie Caron) through college, her education sponsored by a mysterious man
with long legs. Millionaire Jervis Pendleton III (Fred Astaire) is from old
money, and although generous with his wealth, he must learn how to give of
his emotions. Amid sparkling musical numbers and dream sequences, comic
relief comes from Fred Clark as Griggs, Jervis' assistant, and Thelma Ritter
as Jervis' secretary.
