Oliver and Caine on screen, the late great Joseph L. Mankiewicz (Barefoot Contessa, etc.) behind the camera. What more can you say? 8/10.

In two parts. Here is Part 2.

I haven’t seen this since it was in theaters, but I thought it was really good.

The first date I ever went on I saw this movie at the Ziegfeld Theater. Hubby saw the play on Broadway.

Great movie, and so is the modern version where Caine plays the role of the husband.

A remake was made a few years ago.

Michael Caine played the older man part and Jude Law played Caine's old role.

It was pretty good.
