,,,and a classic family.
This is simply one of the best films ever. Its one of my most favorites and hopefully it will be released on DVD very soon.
Shirley MacClaine is the queen bee and Marcello Mastriontanni is the bees knees! Fantastic performances all around and a rich story that will leave you remembering the film for years to come. The cultural aspect here is cheerful and insightful and the whole idea of living in NY in the 60s was a blast to me when I first saw this. ( I was 11- so I had an imagination- sue me!)
Highly recommended! 10 stars.
