Really funny with a really great performances by Dudley Moore and Liza who made this more than just a comedy but also a great human connecti
Dudley Moore plays a charming drunk in this old school romantic comedy.
One of my all time favorite movies! Has humor, love, and a moral to the story.
In 1981 this was cute, funny and warm hearted. Laughing at an alcoholic is just not supposed to be cute or funny anymore.
It starts off rough, but keep with it. Liza and Dudley are a great combo.
Decent for watching it 1 time. Some very funny parts. But overall, it's not a 3 star, in my opinion.
Dudley Moore's peak well written & directed by Steve Gordon in his only ever director role. Once in your life you'll find her...............
Just boring to me, the butler has the best lines and the rest is forgettable
1 of a handful of decent Dudley fun flicks that was left to him for a space of @ 10 years from this point. Another sad loss 2 comedy!
It’s an easy to watch, happy-go-lucky film that just makes you feel good
