The Millionairess

Rating:
Summary: This movie is great for the fashion!
Review: As a clothing designer, I loved this movie as it inspired a whole line of clothes. If you like Peter Sellers and Sophia Loren, then it's a bigger plus!

Summary: Impossible to watch!
Review: FoxLorber should be adviced to immediately withdraw their DVD-version of "The Millionaires" from circulation! Softer than soft and paler than pale, but worst of all: a pan and scan copy of a CinemaScope film! Abominations like this should no longer be allowed on DVD! Either it's the correct aspect ratio, or nothing! For years, I've been waiting to see this flawed but entertaining film again, but after five minutes the disc was taken out and returned to the shop where I bought it. And they were fully understanding. FoxLorber have issued some great, eagerly awaited stuff on DVD, and I thank them for that, but please make sure that we soon can look forward to a version of this film mastered from a decent looking print - AND in CinemaScope!

Summary: Peter-Sophia : face to face
Review: This is a very amusing film with delightful performances of its stars (Peter Sellers- Sophia Loren)and nice second roles(De Sica-Graham Stark). Easy going film highly entertaining.Recommended!

Summary: Mildly entertaining, but there's always Sophia
Review: This is a very slow-paced comedy with very few smiles. But anytime you have Sophia, it's not a total loss. However, this DVD print looks like it was made from an old bad print. The color is very faded and the sound is of static quality. A very disapponting DVD.

Summary: If you like Sophia Loren, you'll love this...
Review: When first reviewed, this movie didn't score particularly well. It's a bit of a star vehicle for the two main characters and is a bit light on plot. As a comedy it is amusing rather than side-splitting, but does manage to hold the attention. Where it scores is its attention to detail in the area of 1960's fashion. Sophia appears in any number of outfits, and looks gorgeous in all of them. Sellers works hard as an Indian doctor, but doesn't come over with his customary brilliance. De Sica is excellent in his role of a backstreet sweatshop owner, but it's the female lead that this film is all about. Sophia is simply stunning, which is enough reason to watch.
