Audience Reviews for The April Fools

Every couple has a movie. This was ours. It is romantic, and very funny. Catherine Deneuve is at her loveliest and it is easy to see how the henpecked and bedraggled Jack Lemmon character, Howard Brubaker, would fall head over heels for her. The scenes with Myrna Loy and Charles Boyer are beyond charming. Jack Weston is hilarious as Brubaker's neighbor and fellow commuter.
