Hey Flora. 20 is pretty good….or 80% of his movies. He apparently only directed one scene in Gigi…as he was filling in for V. Minnelli who was overseas when they re-shot his scene. I have only seen 8 of his movies. The one I have seen the most is Walk Don’t Run….which was Walters and Cary Grant’s last theatrical movies. Of the ones we have both seen….I would probably put High Society and Easter Parade as my favorites. Good stuff as always.
