I've always had a special place in my heart for Audrey Hepburn and I admire her work. However, I just can't understand why she made this movie.
I've watched this movie three times and on each occasion I found it almost impossible to watch. It's just so disjointed, redundant, and ridiculous. The last time I watched it I tried very hard to give it one more chance but to no avail.
One would think that all the big name actors would give it a boost. However, this cast turns the movie into one big "Who's Who" of WASHED-UP actors: Omar Sharif, Romy Schneider, Maurice Ronet, Irene Papas, AND unfortunately Hepburn herself.
I hate to say that. Yes, she is a legend. Yes, she is an icon. Yes, she is loved. It's sad, but she was washed-up as an actress by 1967. Every movie she made after "How to Steal a Million" in 1966 is nearly impossible to watch, especially "Two for the Road" and this flop. That includes the critically acclaimed "Wait Until Dark" in my opinion. Even "Robin and Marion" just doesn't come together.
"Two for the Road" has got to be the most over-rated movie ever. Torture! Pure torture! The only thing good about it is the music by Henry Mancini.
I don't know if it was the material, her co-workers, the changing times, or what. It is sad, but somewhere along the line Audrey lost the magic. Bloodline was the final nail in the coffin.
We love you, Audrey, but someone must have lied to you.
