Description

This Oscar nominated film has the legendary Cary Grant as a government attorney who can't seem to shake his bad fortune. Living on a houseboat, widowed and left with three unruly kids, he hires Sophia Loren as a governess. The magnetic Loren and the charming Grant add up to a cheeky, urbane comedy.

    good movie, but this transfer is so color saturated you’ll have to adjust your monitor to view it in normal color. good movie, bad transfer.

    Grant plays a widower father of 3 children and Loren his maid. It is a ridicules plot from beginning to end. Grant stands out, as always, and tries his best to pull this story, and all of its characters, up to his level.

    I cannot believe that this movie isn't available to rent. It's a great movie and I loooooove Sophia Loren. . . but gimme a break! I don't want to buy it. I just want to rent it. I assume this is the studio's doing and not Apple; nonetheless, someone's making a huge mistake.

    Sophia Loren and Carey Grant! It doesn't get any better than that. If you ever wanted to see a movie that has Sophia Loren in it, this is the one to see!

    This is a cute little film with an unbeliveably catchy song. With Cary Grant and Sophia Loren comes perfection. A fun, hilarious little movie!
