Reviews for The Secret of Santa Vittoria
Lost without a message to sledgehammer home, Kramer turned to bombastic comedy with this World War II yarn.
Carrying charm, suspense, romance, the production offers Anthony Quinn at his seasoned best, a plot and unfoldment that holds the spectator.
There's not one affecting, surprising or spontaneous moment in the picture.
