COMMUNITY REVIEWS
A very pleasant surprise, this bleak B&W oldie has a smashing sense of humor, side-splitting!
submitted by Tassos on December 18, 2021, 11:04am
and very welcome today, on a very bleak and totally cloudy day, with its grey skies and rain and sleet falling outside. (Its 11 AM and it looks like evening out!)
SO, as I said in the title, outstanding sense of humor in the script, which is more than enough for me.
But there is more! Such as, for example, a very young, unbelievably attractive Claudia Cardinale, probably one of her first movies. (the movie was released in 1958, so when it was filmed, she was only 19-20 at most.
