"I'm Not Carlotta!"
3 September 2018 | by mleatherwood1 – See all my reviews

Poor Brenda Vaccarro is really in trouble as an office worker mistaken for the sought after Carlotta in this comedy/drama which showcases a capable cast including Roddy McDowall and Vincent Price (in an untypical low brow turn) as hoods and Jack Warden as the police detective who tries to help Brenda out of this mess. Joanne Worley as Brenda's confidante and Michael Learned as a thug also appear, as does Edmond O'Brien towards the end. A spunky performance from Vaccarro and all around likeable characters help this movie hold its interest until the satisfying conclusion. This was made as an ABC Movie of the Week.
