i saw this recently with my wife and discover it good than caine believe and although it not much cop . britain great ever screen actor do not seem too interested in this role and which be a pity a he might have elevate it with more conviction in his playing . rex harrison seem even less bother and perhaps unsurprisingly and a his character be very poorly write . william holden be well and but his screen time be fleeting and and again and his character be not well script . beverly johnson be as beautiful a woman a i have ever see and but be give very little to do and the film might have gain a great deal by concentrate more on her story . ustinov steal the show and but basically by play a comic character quite out of keep with the film serious tone . the music be poor and omar sharif make one of his many pointless cameo ( his career have be base on this for decade now ) . richard fleischer have to be blame for not direct this more effectively and he be an infuriatingly unpredictable film director and and this be one of his weaker movie .
