Steve D I am embarrassed for Jimmy. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/24 Full Review Audience Member Jimmy Stewart has lost what made him famous. Here he is an old man without charm, without sparkle. Any light that shines through is from the boy, Billy Mumy, as he is too young to understand Stewart's rule for the other cast members: do not outshine me! Thus, we see an almost invisible Fabian, and other cast members that can't be remembered. Also, eight year old boys do not have sexual crushes on Brigitte Bardot. Hollywood always makes this mistake -- thinking it looks cute. Eight year old boys are catching frogs with other eight year old boys. A poor movie and Jimmy Stewart at his worst. Stewart's 1930's heydays are over and no one has told him. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I LOVE this movie...somehow, I guess because it was a bit controversial for it's time, it was over-looked. I have tried to order online...Seems like The Scandinavians, French and Russians love this movie for BRIGITTE BARDOTs part, playing herself...you can order in a different than American Format. I mean it also has a cameo with Barbara Streisands husband and FABIAN...what more can you want from a mid 60s movie that predicts our current governmental crisis? Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Half a star for Jimmy Stewart at age 57 (though clearly too old to be a father of an 8-year-old), half a star for Glynis Johns at age 42 (she's perky and kinda fun), and half a star for a few shots of San Francisco at the beginning. There's not much else going for this one, folks. The script is awful. The use of the narrator (Ed Wynn) is awful. The boy who is a savant at math and who therefore can pick horse races is ridiculous. Yes it's a family film and meant to be light, but they can be so much better. It seems Director Henry Koster or the studio had a real dog on their hands, and tried desperately to liven it up with a next-door-neighbor artist who has his wife pose in the nude, and the inclusion of Brigitte Bardot. Bardot's scenes are late in the movie, brief, and a snooze - so don't hang on to watching this for them (as I did). Bail early.
