Mark B Remember when you were a child and your parents told you not to do something? So, you went ahead and did it. I had one of those moments which led me to watching or should I say, enduring this awful movie. As soon as I saw Doris Day in the cast, I should have run a mile. She was very much a singer/actress of her time. I just think of her in all those silly, camp musicals, so I have no excuse for watching Caprice..... which I did. Bizarre miscasting with Day and Richard Harris. Woody Allen would have fitted in far more comfortably to replace Harris while Claudia Cardinale should have played Day. She tries so hard to play the sexy blonde in this production but just looks like someone's mother who has just spent all morning in the hairdressers. All it needed was Dean Martin from the dreadful Matt Helm series to come bursting onto the scene and it would have been complete! This is a truly terrible movie. Anything Day says cannot be taken seriously and the comic-book plot is almost too much to bear. Is the film supposed to be a comedy?? I think not. It's just awful and meaningless and empty. And it's very much a film "you will regret having watched the next morning." Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/10/25 Full Review Audience Member This piece of trash, sums up everything that was wrong with an era of film, set to move away from the old Hollywood system. Just one of many bad deals, thrown together by Doris Day's husband/agent. Martin Melcher turned down Mike Nichols' offer for Day to play Mrs. Robinson in The Graduate (1967). Caprice (1967) barely grossed $4 million while The Graduate (1967) topped $100 million. The only reason anyone should watch this film, is if you're a fan of camp. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Critics didn't care much for this film. Nor did Doris Day. You'd NEVER know it tho. She's classic MOD and it's a rich lush beautifully filmed project. The costumes are stunning and so is Doris. Enjoy it!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member The continuous double-crossing within the film is the best part of the comedy, the rest of it is pretty much a sickly-romance. Doris Day is looking very aged in this one. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member This is an example of a movie so dumb that it's almost brilliant. Almost. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member It's seriously not that bad! I actually found it quite interesting and Doris Day is pretty stylish here running around as a spy. I found a few parts really funny!
