Daddy Long Legs with Fred and Leslie Caron.... and another pairing of older younger actors and actresses... Astaire was in his mid 50's and Caron was mid 20's but it seemed to work... I watched this film like 10 times on the old Million Dollar Movie when I was a young boy.... Fell in love with it then and now I can watch it whenever I want as I have it on DVD.... Directed by Jean Negulesco and gowns by the famous Jean Louis (who made the famous Marilyn Monroe sheer number she wore to sing to the President).. Apparently it made an impression on me, as my wife is considerably younger than I am (11 years)....
