Paris Blues Ratings & Reviews
Apollo Guide
Dan Jardine
Roman Holiday for beatnik hipsters

Cole Smithey
Louis Armstrong lends his legendary horn to great effect in a musical sequence in this classic gem of a movie.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
A low key, plotless but charming film that benefits from its appealing cast, Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward, Sidney Poitier and Diahann Carroll, on location shooting in Paris, and Oscar-nominated jazz music from Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
The jazz is hot, the romance is not so hot.

Four writers have adapted Harold Flender's novel, whose sole asset was the idea they have minimized ...
Artforum
Melissa Anderson
Despite how square this movie about hepcats seems -- if only from the admittedly unfair vantage point of more than five decades on -- expressions of raw emotion stir Paris Blues to life.
Variety
Variety Staff
Within its snappy, flashy veneer is an undernourished romantic drama of a rather traditional screen school.
Oregonian
Shawn Levy
Newman is terrific in the picture, running both hot and cool, but he's upstaged by Woodward, who delivers stunning and surprising emotion in the final scenes. It's really worth seeing.
TIME Magazine
All it lacks is something to pull these parts into a sensible whole.
TV Guide
The story is slim but the jazz is great.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
Paris Blues feels strikingly original in its ambience, relationships, and dialogue.
