PRESTON AMES ART DIRECTOR Th is is somewhat the way I remember the Left Bank of Paris when I was a student at the Beaux Arts: An attic room with its twisted stairway, a street with its shops and cafes, a flower stand hidden behind some old shoring, a cellar converted into a night club. Here a good part of the picture was shot and with the teamwork of Director Vincente Minnelli, Choreographer Gene Kelly, Cameraman Al Gilkes, and Art Director, the studio was able to get from this set what it, in part, had originally intended to do abroad. The sketch of the street was brought to the screen by a matte shot executed by Warren Newcombe. Page 6
