| User Reviewjay nMeandering comedy/drama that is too much Gassman and not enough A-M. She still gets a better shake than poor Eleanor Parker who is almost completely wasted in a rather demeaning role as a doormat wife. Hard to find so if you have the chance and are a fan of either lady give it a shot but it's a minor credit for all. |
| User ReviewDonald WFor some reason Ann-Margaret decided to make a cheap Italian movie. The story is about an Italian businessman going through a mid-life crisis. He falls in love with a 20 year old played by Ann-Margaret. She speaks English and he speaks Italian but the dialog is all dubbed into English. Back then the Italians would dub their movies into whatever language they needed to run the movie in several different countries. The jokes don't translate to English and the story has been done many times in better movies. Even the clothes Ann-Margaret wore were drab and ugly. Why would you pay a leading American sex symbol to be in your "sex comedy" and dress her like a prude? |
