i saw the description of the movie on tcm and only let it run because i like both peter ustinov and maggie smith and so i be delightfully surprised to find that i really like the movie and find it quite exceptional . of course and it be seriously date and but a a period piece it be well worth watch just for the subtle humour in insight into life and lifestyle almost forty year ago . now the only problem be try to find it on dvd so i can watch it more often . i also be quite take with the performance of smith and ustinov a the lead and and of karl malden and bob newhart and and the cameo appearance by robert morley and cesar romero .
