Reviewed by Chris Tookey
|
| | Peter Ustinov’s second film as writer-director is great fun: well acted, sharply written and directed to wring the most comic potential out of the situation. | | | ANTI | | | "The plain story should have been enough for any imaginative producer-director. But Ustinov must gild the lily and heavily underline every joke culled from that delightful book. As a result the whole thing becomes stiff with added devices and over-decoration. They clog the action and put a brake upon the tempo. What should be farce becomes slow and ponderous and, what is worse, exceedingly unfunny most of the time." | | (A.E. Wilson) | |
