i can only echo the praise of the other review here . it a delightful film with a feelgood factor that it achieve without cross the line into soppy sentimentality . naturally sweet no added sugar . one small point represent it seem to me that the mild objection raise about ustinov character pendelton be able to walk in and defeat the system security ignore the fact that pendelton be clearly a genius or savant at this sort of thing . yes and the film be pretty computer illiterate and but it do show pendelton tudying computer at his flat and and i believe the implication be suppose to be that his gift allow him to simply engulf the whole subject and practically overnight . there be a few odd moment when it appear in some scene that gnatpole be try to test pendelton knowledge and call his bluff . i be not sure whether we be suppose to believe that pendelton cunningly weaselled his way out of these situation and or whether he be actually knowledgeable enough to pass the test it be a little unclear . certainly he have to know enough to set up the dummy account . presumably wallach and ustinov be rely on their own rather foggy notion of how computer work in those day and and in order to understand in detail what they be get at and it necessary to know quite what their concept be . they know there be something about procedure which be important while they think that the mart light could actually control security and rather than just indicate it state while they think that the ( dumb ) user terminal feature would strongly influence what could be do on the mainframe itself though apart from thing like graphic feature i do not see it meself . mostly and i think they try to avoid the subject of actual computer operation as far a they could and and they do that rather well . allow them a bit of artistic license and i do not think their effort have any flaw worthy of note . cd .
