Reviews

Now, as a man who really doesn't much like children in films unless it's "Oliver!" (1968), I guess I was asking for trouble when I started to watch this. The opening scene features cinema debutante, the 13 year old Gloria Jean ("Pip-Emma"), giving us the equivalent of an audio postcard of Charles Previn's recent holiday in Switzerland. Yep, a good old fashioned yodel! Luckily, I couldn't be bothe…
