Overview
"Can-Can" features Frank Sinatra and Shirley MacLaine lighting up the screen in the vibrant, two-time Oscar-nominated film adaptation of Cole Porter's iconic Broadway musical. Alongside Maurice Chevalier, Louis Jourdan, and Juliet Prowse, the film tells the story of Simone Pistache (MacLaine), the owner of Montmartre’s notorious nightclub, Café Le Bol Du Paradis. Simone frequently finds herself in court due to the scandalous banning of the can-can dance. Her lively lawyer and boyfriend, Français Durnais (Sinatra), refuses to settle down and marry her, prompting Simone to play up to his romantic rival, Parisian judge Philipe Forrestier (Jourdan). With dazzling production numbers and Cole Porter’s unforgettable music, "Can-Can" is celebrated as “big, brassy, colorful entertainment” (Los Angeles Times). C’est magnifique!
