Avanti!
1 9 7 2 (USA)
Billy Wilder's most neglected masterpiece is a sublime
romantic comedy that stars Jack Lemmon as a harassed executive falling
for he daughter of his father's mistress (Juliet Mills) in Italy.
The film is drawn out, yet plenty of wit and style in
the script and classy acting by a good cast sustain interest. Director
Billy Wilder isn't at his top form, but his execution is satisfactory.
Also with Clive Revill and Edward Andrews.
