unusual 70's film, Niven is quite funny, 5 February 2006
8/10
Author: Tony Rome from Long Island, New york

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

This film is very hard to find on video. It was released on VHS in the 1980's by Embassy home video. The film was shot in a wide scope, and the credits at the beginning are cut off on the small screen. This is a very funny movie with Niven and Lollobridgida as the uncle and aunt of John - moulder brown. Brown is humorous in a physical comedy role as the nerdy nephew. I laughed out loud at the crazy invention that brown is presented with. The film is derived from a book by Vladimir Nabokov which I am currently looking for to read. I recommend this film to Fans of Niven, or anyone that enjoys zany silly movies. Jerzy Skolimowski went on to direct Moonlighting, a 1982 film staring Jeremy Irons, this too is a funny film.
