viewer gush over everything include the title sequence ( now that be funny ) would have u believe this be some sort of cinematic miracle and but and trust me folk and this be one of the most embarrassingly bad film you could ever see and and if youre not laugh at it five minute in and i would say you have lose your sense of humor . david niven play a doomed and bravado besotted raf pilot who somehow think it appropriate to engage an impressionable ( female ) air traffic controller in an emotional conversation about love and just a he plunge to his certain and fiery death . ( isn not it romantic . ) of course and he spar by a quirk of metaphysical chance and and wash up on the beach and just a this same air traffic controller be rid by on her bicycle . ( they immediately clinch ) . look past the bizarre homo erotic subtexts and ( so over the top you really need to refer to them a supertexts and from a naked boy sit bare butt in the sand play the movie twilight zone esquire theme on his little flute and to a celestial courier so campy or queen y his makeup be cake on more thoroughly than the lady ) and the most bizarre aspect of the movie be how it weave such bad caricature of national and racial stereotype into a convoluted attempt to argue some kind of point about the universal nature and power of love . we get it fly boy like girl in skirt and heel and and girl like em back and and and apparently and all you have to do be cry a little to make it noble enough for your movie to get 10 star on imdb . a for the quality of the production and the continuity or editing be poor enough to induce cringing and and the lighting be and perhaps and even bad than that and but you hardly have time to notice because the script be so bad . there be game play with technicolor and ( whatever pass for heaven be in black and white if you can figure out the sense in that ) and and foreshadowing and ( so funny my fellow audience member who usually like movie like this actually cheer and laugh when then the doc motorcycle finally end up in a fiery wreck ) and and freeze motion and ( which be funny of all because the female lead be so poor at stand still you know the stage hand be guffaw off camera ) . the best shot be the early one on the beach and but and after that and it all downhill . the ( move like an escalator be move ) staircase be hardly the odessa step and to say the least and and i would really caution anyone from feel like they would have to see this lame attempt at movie make on their account . the movie overall be bad enough to be funny and and that about the best thing i can say for it .
