Loyalty-Divided Spy And His Schizoid Misadventures In A Politically-Divided City
DIRECTED BY ANTHONY MANN (UNCREDITED: LAURENCE HARVEY)
STREET DATE: JULY...
The many musical performances, both in-world and integrated, are good (particularly a tightly coordinated split screen number) and the music itself is even better. Director/producer Val Guest, for all his potshots taken at the coffee shop “rebellion” of the youth set, does a formidable of depicting the budding scene and the neon-y, urban and modernized world surrounding it. The film is never better than when the kids get to groovin’ on the dance floor. It’s the newfangled widescreen frame a-hoppin’ and a-boppin’. Clearly, the espresso- or, er, “expresso”- is freely flowing!
