Silk Stockings

“Sheer delight!”

In 1957 Paris, three bumbling Soviet agents have failed to bring a composer home, and Moscow sends Ninotchka Yoschenko (Cyd Charisse) to fetch him and them. Rouben Mamoulian puts her opposite Steve Canfield (Fred Astaire), an American movie producer who has no plans to let the composer go. She arrives ready to condemn the decadent West, a stern woman in a gray suit with a mission to finish.
