With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of romantics and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter. The chemistry carries it. A good follow-up to Pretty Woman.
- The mood
- Light and funny, romantic.
- The pace
- Paced for all ages, at 1 hr 54 min.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- It's in Portuguese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1941: an older pace and style.
- Probably not for a grown-ups-only night in.
While rehearsing the annual play, a clerk tries to regain the attention of his beloved, in a comedy of equivoques.
