Title: Love the story & Doris Day's lounge singer character.
Review: Doris Day's wise cracking, slang speaking character is such a different role than is usually associated with her, but no less adorable. "Romance" is filled with classic Hollywood cheese, rapidly fired one liners and quirky people doing quirky things. The exotic places where the cruise ship stops are a fun escape from the norm, and are populated with stereotypes that reflect the average unseasoned traveler's attitudes towards tropical locations at the time of filming. Although, I feel that only adds to the film's charms as it is essentially an escape into a different world for the average 1940s American. The character actors throughout the film are a snapshot of things as they were before unapologetic stunt casting removed these types of artists from mainstream work. A breezy classic romantic comedy where no amount of mishaps and misadventures can keep the main characters from being happy in the end.
