Redgrave pere meets Mills fils., 14 October 2003
6/10
Author: Jake (jemstream@hotmail.com) from Melbourne Australia

In this so-so British comedy Michael Redgrave plays the business magnate father of a socially awkward daughter who causes all manner of misunderstandings for her father and family friend Roger Livesey when she becomes friendly with the son of their American business associate. The plot is reminiscent of the kinds of things Walt Disney used to make at around this time, a fact brought home even more so by the fact that Juliet Mills (sister of Hayley, who was to appear for Disney that year in The Parent Trap after her success in Pollyanna the year before) plays the daughter.

Unfortunately, the chuckles (laughs would be an exaggeration) do not come all that frequently, and the picture as a whole somehow also seems to smack of a British establishment aura which would have made it perfect fodder for a Conservative party fund-raiser at the time. Nevertheless, it is all quite competent, and a reasonable enough diversion for 90 minutes or so.
