Dolores GRAY, an American star, lands in Paris where she is greeted by five admirers who fight over the favour of accompanying her on her strolls through Paris. Bob takes her to the funfair: an acrobatic dance number by MARGIT and MARGOT. Ted shows him Raymond GIRED performing Charles Trénet’s “Retour à Paris”. Peter introduces her to the pleasures of gardens and sentimental walks, and she sings him “C’est si bon”. Stephen invites her to see the STEPS Brothers, while Steve takes her to hear Edith PIAF record “L’Hymne à l’Amour”. Finally, the film ends with a cabaret number with the BLUEBELL GIRLS.
