DVD Reviews of Come September

DVD Review: Review from the Under 30 Crowd
Summary: 5 Stars

I totally annoy my friends with "old movies" but after seeing this one, some had to admit this was pretty good. It's very entertaining and it gets a good laugh out me even after seeing it the one-millionth time. In my opinion, it provides a real refreshing change from a lot of the movies we see today. Feel good factor guaranteed!

DVD Review: Romantic Comedy
Summary: 3 Stars

A New York business man(Rock Hudson)visits his villa in Italy every September, to relax and to romance his italian girlfriend(Gina Lollobrigda); but, when he arrives unannounced a month eary(July) he is in for the surpise of his life. His luxury villia has been turned into an hotel filled with a gaggle of American girls being pursued by a herd of pining boys. To say that he is astounded, is putting in lightly and in his attempt to set things right, i.e. regain control of his villa; he manages to lose his privacy, his girlfriend and his mind. Then he comes up with a plan of his own. You'll have to see the movie to know what that plan is and whether it is successful or not - good viewing.

DVD Review: Totally Delightful
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is just full of stars that will never be forgotten...
I watched this movie with my mother so very many times when I was a little girl.
When I watch it now I can almost still feel her sitting next to me laughing.

DVD Review: "I don't have to make sense! I'm Italian"
Summary: 4 Stars

"Come September" (1961) is a light, funny, and delightfully old-fashioned romantic comedy which is as charming as the colorful dresses the girls were wearing during "Age of Innocence," a period that extended roughly from the end of World War II into the mid-1960s, and as pretty as the Italian seaside where American millionaire Robert Talbot (dashing Rock Hudson) has a luxurious villa. For six years, he's been spending his vacation there in September with his Italian girlfriend, Lisa Fellini - a stunningly beautiful and sensual Gina Lollobrigida. One year, he changed his plans and arrived in July. To Talbot's utter surprise he found out that his devoted major-domo, Maurice (Walter Slezak stole all his scenes as an employee who has his very own ideas of loyalty and devotion) , has been making nice money by turning his villa into a popular and posh hotel "La Dolce Vista" once his employer leaves for America. Lisa is tired of being a " September girl" and decides to marry another man. On the top of all, Talbot finds himself chaperoning a group of six American teenage girls vacationing in Italy, and fighting a generational war with the group of four American college boys whose hotel reservation he cancelled and who settled in a tent just outside the villa and began courting the girls. Talbot's biggest concern is Tony (Bobby Darin), the leader of the gang, a medical student who wants to seduce young and innocent blonde Sandy (Sandy Dee), the psychology major. The film is a nice way to spend two hours. Darin sings the song" Multiplication" that he had composed for the movie and I wonder if the song was one of the reasons Dee and pop idol Bobby Darin fell in love with each other in real life and were married just after the filming was over. Hudson and Lollobrigida have a nice chemistry and there is also their dance together. While watching her dance, you would wholeheartedly agree with Tony that never 206 bones that a human body includes were constructed so perfectly. To quote him further, "She is a beaut; you don't see many like that". So is the movie - they simply don't make them like that anymore.

Ah! For the days when movies had a moral fiber in them. Refreshing!

Description of Come September

An american visits his italian villa in the off-season and catches his caretaker running it as a hotel. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 05/06/2003 Starring: Rock Hudson Gina Lollobrigida Run time: 112 minutes Rating: Nr Director: Robert Mulligan
Hanging out at an Italian villa with Rock Hudson and Gina Lollobrigida sounds like a painless way to kill a vacation--and Come September is a pretty painless movie, too. Rock is a millionaire who spends a month at his home on the Riviera every year, except this year he's come early and surprised his staff, who've been running the place as a paying hotel. This is one of those comedies of sexual frustration--Rock can't get alone with Gina, because the "hotel" is overrun with American teenagers (chief among them Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin, who married after meeting on the shoot). The plot is labored, and director Robert Mulligan shows little feel for farce (he would shortly hit his stride with To Kill a Mockingbird). At least the location shooting has a nice summer breeze to it, and Darin sings "Multiplication" in a nightclub, complete with hepcat moves. --Robert Horton
