Breezy, watchable, charming… I’m surprised more people haven’t seen this one. I found it to be a well made movie: sturdy script (if low on laughs with some undernourished characters), excellently cast, masterful early 60s summer soundtrack, and — most memorably — gorgeous pastel palette in every frame.
Is It Good?
Good (5/8)
