8/10
A movie to watch at least once a year
4 May 2021
I absolutely love this film; it contains that cozy atmosphere that suits a perfect rainy lazy afternoon program. Although its plot may seem a little grim, it is in the most funny possible way. Its filled with absurdity, but in a way that feels very fluid and natural to that particular situation and characters.

I don't give it a perfect 10 because, however painful it is for me to admit this (because his one of the greatest actors of his generation), Cary Grant delivers an over the top perfomance that sometimes is just annoying. His character is supposed to lead the viewer through the absurdity of the situation but ends up - involuntarily - being just another crazy piece of the scheme.

But this in no way removes the charm of the movie: is just something that, for me (having watched several times), end up drawing too much attention in a not so funny way.
