Featured review
Screwball comedy not without charm
A British-West German romantic comedy; A story about an international arms dealer who clashes with a liberated journalist. Screwball comedies require a good pairing: a female dominating the relationship and a male's masculinity challenged, and a humorous battle of the sexes ensues. Roger Moore is amusing as the urbane, slightly rakish neighbour making overtures to Susannah York's feisty, pacifist feminist. In support, Lee J. Cobb and Shelley Winters are another good pairing providing some funny moments. The love-against-the-odds theme is charming but plot gets in the way eventually and there is a second-rate farce in the final third and a stub of an ending. Art direction is first-rate thanks to the Academy Award-winning Jack Maxsted.
