Title: ARISTOPHANES ......
Review: WOULD APPLAUD HEARTILY ... and IF he were around today, he'd probably write about her [pity though that in ancient times - she'd be played by a man !] Tough act this would be to follow since the Mercurial Mercouri holds the patent ~ and what a patent! A Greek slant on "My Fair lady" [Pygmalion} and perhaps just perhaps Miss Mercouri is perhaps too intellectual for this role? Nah! She's in splendid form! So's the rest of the talented cast. Great soundtrack too.It's the old tale of the foreigner [a smitten American tourist] trying to 'reform' a local 'lady' who is quite multitalented in her own way - along the way quite a few noses are bent, glasses are broken [a great running gag in the taverna] and hearts are broken and mended.Shocking for its period [1960] just THAT towel draped around her neck and no visible sign of anything else??ENJOY this one - a rare find!
