It's coming on TCM in a couple hours. I'm debating whether to watch it or work on my script. What say you? Worth watching?

Re: To watch or not to watch....Funny Face
Watch it. Hepburn is wonderful--when she sings she's not dubbed--, Astaire is, well, Astaire, the story is based not-so-loosely on the career of Richard Avedon (who did all the still photography for it), and the big drawback is that it's dated. Paris is a series of clichés, right down to the bérets and adagio dancers, but there are a number of setpieces staged by Donen which are classic. And the music is first-rate.
