Amazon.com:
Cary Grant is the befuddled English earl casually puttering around his tourist attraction of a grand old estate in casual dress while a bull of an American millionaire (Robert Mitchum) crashes into his life and seduces Grant's sophisticated lady (Deborah Kerr). It's pure fantasy, of course, with its cool, cultured lovers swapping witty banter with the same calm they swap gunshots in an old-fashioned duel. Have adultery and jealousy ever been so civilized? Stanley Donen never shakes this very British drawing-room comedy of manners free of its talky, stagebound source or its deliberate snail's pace, but he does manages to bring a lightness that softens the wit with an American lilt. Ultimately, though, it's all about a crack cast in fine form: Mitchum's sleepy-eyed insolence, Kerr's easy elegance, Jean Simmons's flighty outrageousness, and especially the charm and measured grace that is Cary Grant. --Sean Axmaker

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Delightful Drawing Room Comedy
This isn't for everyone. It is for anyone who appreciates smart, witty drawing room comedy at close to its best. Not quite as good as "Indiscreet," but close. In fact, I was surprised that I was not at all disappointed when I saw it again. As for the DVD, no special features to speak of, but the transfer quality is pretty good. Worth buying for those who like this sort of subtle, witty and intelligent entertainment.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - God-awful plot, fierce miscasting, witty repartee
The plot of this movie is as stupid as stupid gets: brash American boy meets married English girl, and charms the pants off her in 15 minutes, despite the fact that she and her husband have a warm, loving relationship. The husband then challenges the brash American to a duel to save his marriage. It's even worse when you consider that the brash charmer is Robert Mitchum (a man who exudes menace), and the abandoned husband is Cary Grant, the world's most charming man. And Jean Simmons as the flighty, ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The Grass is greener - Always great to see
This movie presents great actors and actresses, in some beautiful moments that remind us very good memories. Deborah Kerr, Jean Simmons, Cary Grant and Robert Mitchum are wonderful, that's all.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A bit of a Switch for Cary Grant
This was a very interesting movie and one I had missed in my earlier selection of movie purchases. It is a later Cary Grant but still the same unique style and finesse. His charm comes through even though the plot is somewhat convoluted. The movie appears to reflect issues of marriage and fidelity for a changing society. It is a delightful romp into a more serious issue in a way only Cary Grant can deliver.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Cary Grant!
I have always loved this movie! Yes, it's the Cary Grant formula, but it's a good story, a little different for sure, and the scenery here is beautiful! Very entertaining.
