A Breezy Comedy with Wilder's Touch, 8 May 2000
10/10
Author: cinefilo-6 from Porto Alegre,Brazil

Richard Quine is one of most underated director of his time.This jewel,is a funny comedy with all-star cast in the style of The Pink Panther and Some Like Hot.Highlights Curtis seducing Wood and Fonda and Bacall fighting for jealous reason.The Critics at the time hated this movie,but nowadays with the hit of " There's Something About Mary",this movie deserves another look.Well,people enjoy this funny movie directed by Mr. Quine.
