Reviews

Bill Thompson

This is a comedy that really doesn't quite work. The casting is odd and Paul Newman never really looks comfortable in his role. Sophia is gorgeous as always however, and David Niven is pretty good. Peter Ustinov wrote the screenplay, is the director and has a cameo appearance as well....
