The storyline itself, unfortunately, is a little less impressive. Essentially a Pygmalion-tale about an innocent waif seduced by an older mentor into a world of glamour and fame, Hepburn&#8217;s &#8220;transformation&#8221; never rings quite true. She&#8217;s a philosophy-loving beatnik who inexplicably falls in love with the much-older Astaire the first time he kisses her, and allows both her weird crush on him &#8212; as well as her desire to travel to Paris to meet the fabled philosopher Emile Flostre (Michel Auclair) &#8212; to convince her to give the glamorous world of modeling a try. (Oh, how would-be models in the audience at the time must have been simultaneously drooling and seething at the fairy-tale opportunity Hepburn nearly gives up!) <\/p>\n<p>Yet the entire affair &#8212; like most musicals at the time &#8212; is best viewed simply as a fairy tale, one that shouldn&#8217;t be analyzed too closely; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dvdtalk.com\/dvdsavant\/s2794face.html\">as DVD Savant puts it<\/a>, &#8220;<em>Funny Face<\/em> is meant to be a carefree bubble of jokes and music, and on those terms there&#8217;s little to complain about.&#8221; While the age difference between Hepburn and Astaire really is too much to swallow (after all, Astaire is no debonairly graying Cary Grant), it&#8217;s nonetheless a delight to watch these two dancing on-screen together &#8212; or apart, for that matter. Indeed, Hepburn&#8217;s best dance is her stunning solo outing in the Beatnik cafe, which is out of sight, man! Meanwhile, Astaire does a fine ditty with a &#8220;red cape&#8221; outside Hepburn&#8217;s apartment window, and there are numerous other fun songs (courtesy of a fine Gershwin score) and dances sprinkled throughout. Film fanatics will also surely be interested to see polymath Kay Thompson &#8212; known, among other things, for being one of Judy Garland&#8217;s closest confidantes, as well as the creator of the children&#8217;s book character <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Eloise_%28books%29\">Eloise<\/a> &#8212; in one of her precious few screen appearances, here playing the delightfully acerbic, Diana Vreeland-esque fashion magazine editor who drives the entire narrative. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> Even non-fashion-lovers will be tempted to rewind the lovely Parisian fashion shoot montage several times &#8212;
