This film is incredibly funny. What a great comic Dudley was.
This film is a treasure if you need to laugh, and want to laugh at how crazy most humans are. In viewing this film recently, I better understood what great comic and great actor Dudley Moore was. I miss him.Rex Harrison acted in the original version of this story. Dudley made the film so much more funny. By seeing both versions you can why Dudley was a comic genius. I miss him. Dudley makes clear what screwballs we humans are. And he takes ordinary script lines and makes them very funny. Many of the elements of a Shakespearean comedy are in this film, but unlike the plays, this film has a terrific music score, has beautiful photography, and has simple dialogue. What makes this film great, for those mature enough to understand it, is Dudley Moore. I am not sure, but, to me, the concert hall looks very much like the one at the California Institute of Technology.This film is a remake of the much earlier black-and-white version, and the remake, unlike most remakes, is superior to the original.
