Question

Dick Avery dances with a cape and one of these objects while singing “Let’s Kiss and Make Up” in Funny Face. In a film named after these objects, a woman sings to a man that “you smell of gasoline” (15[1])to which he responds “it’s just another perfume”. Madame Émery and her daughter (15[1])Geneviève run a boutique that sells (15[1])these objects in a Jacques Demy film. (15[1])A parrot-themed one of these objects says (*) “that’s gratitude (10[1])for you” as its owner watches the Banks family at the end of a 1964 film. Don Lockwood sings that he’s “laughing at clouds so dark up above” (10[1])while hanging (-5[1])on to a lamppost and holding one of these (10[1])objects. For 10 points, Gene Kelly’s character twirls around what sort of object while performing “Singin’ in the Rain”, (10[1])which is also what Mary Poppins uses to fly? ■END■
