Aug 10, 2021Olivia DeHavilland and her 26 year old daughter (Yvette Mimieux) vacation in sunny Florence, Italy for an undetermined length of time, but why? It looks all very idyllic but the mother hovers near her daughter incessantly....it turns out that the daughter is developmentally challenged and the mother has not accepted what looks to be her little girl's fate. And so, a soap opera, yes, but one that looks at living with tragic lowered expectations. While the solution offered is bonkers (and perhaps criminal) at least the presentation is first rate. Barry Sullivan delivers a minor and short-lived respite from some of the angsty sentimental slush. And...Italy, scenic all on its own.kevin w Super Reviewer

Jan 25, 2008An absolutely beautiful story! I'd reccommend this film, the book, or the musical to anyone!

Oct 30, 2007Nice drama in a beautiful setting. Except for the ludicrous casting of George Hamilton as an Italian the film benefits from an excellent cast. Olivia is strong as the worried mother, Rossano dashing and Yvette breathtakingly beautiful like a china doll come to life.
