The Last Time I Saw Paris
The sensational story of youth on a fling
Directed by Richard Brooks
Produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
A romantic drama about the collision between youthful passion and the grinding realities of marriage and ambition, set against the romantic backdrop of post-war Paris.
Reporter Charles Wills, in Paris to cover the end of World War II, falls for the beautiful Helen Ellswirth following a brief flirtation with her sister, Marion. After he and Helen marry, Charles pursues his novelistic ambition while supporting his new bride with a deadening job at a newspaper wire service. But when an old investment suddenly makes the family wealthy, their marriage begins to unravel — until a sudden tragedy changes everything.
