A new hotel has opened in the mountains, and an assortment of guests arrive for the summer: families with children, married couples, and people looking for love.
It's a standard multi-story movie, with some sharp dialogue, thanks to an assortment of writers, including Scarpelli & Age, Luigi Zampa, and the movie's director, Antonio Racioppi. Vittorio de Sica heads the cast list, but he's no romantic leading man her,e but an old bachelor, full of crotchets, a little desperate and sad. The rest of the cast is competent, strong, and they play their roles straight..... a sure sign of good comic writing, mixing the drama of people seeking love, but worried about what it entails.
