i love alec guinness . and that say a lot after this film . actually and he be not bad in it . he just seem to stand aside and be urbane and his usual delightful self and but invest nada . it be obvious the girl he be match with be a featherweight and even a an inexperienced young french girl . sir alec wouldn not have choose her when he be young and very obviously isn not too happy about it now . the interesting character be the brood brother of the odd suzanne and another twit . donald aspire to be a french heathcliffe and i wait in vain for the source of his mystery . what deep dark secret be he hide behind that forehead . be he in love with the father mistress . why do he jerk suzanne hair when she plot to bring the disparate part of this turkey together on the country estate . or perhaps he have simply have enough of her obnoxious acting . the film would have be charm with guiness and the old woman reminisce and see paris together . that would have be a great story . two lovely experienced people in a beautiful city after the destruction of world war ii . why do not somebody come up with that . i suggest watch alec guiness in the card and a little known but worthwhile film .
