Title: Only for Hardcore Fans
Review: Movies about moviemaking are generally narcissistic exercises, and this film is no exception. Too bad so many inexperienced filmmakers get caught in the classic trap of making a film about their own activities. Here it is done with a big budget and two of my favorite stars. It is said this film sat in the can for two years before it was released so this is Holden/Hepburn (reunited after Sabrina) circa 1961/62. The story is dull, fluffy and filling like whipped cream, the dialogue is reasonably good, and I am a great fan of both these people. The period of the early 60's offers forth it's abundant and wasteful values, interesting just in that aspect alone. I love that apartment. Audrey is absolutely gorgeous, William is in unbelievable shape, and they both exude huge amounts of energy all for a bunch of fluff. Enjoy!
