PUNQ

Rated 15 Apr 2021

A troubled rushed marriage in a world of horse racing. Kind of charming when it wanted to be, but I couldn't help feel the story wasn't really for me. Or there not being that much to it. Perhaps that was why they decided to shoot it in Technicolor, to cover-up it lack of substance. I mean, I liked both Cornel Wilde & Maureen O'Hara in their parts, but this was a production that tried to capture the female audience a little too much, maybe?
