Reviews
" Moderate laughter entertainment that builds on proven gags and well-known stars, but otherwise has to offer neither solid nor clean plot structure. "
" Entertaining Hollywood comedy, embellished with postcard views of Italy; another " Pillow Talk " with Rock Hudson, whose partner this time Gina Lollobrigida is called. "
