This was a charming film that likely would not be made today. Maureen O'Hara, the wife of a senior diplomat runs away from her husband and children to live with widowed Italian musician, played by Rozzano Brazzi. Her children follow her to Italy to try and take her back home.

Once in Italy, they discover an unlikely ally.

Movies today would not, I believe, be so 'judgmental' in their view of O'Hara's and Brazzi's relationship. This is why I don't think this film would be made today. The children tried to do the right thing, and make their parents see it as well. The children in this case knew what the right thing was and tried to do it.

At least, that's how I see it.

This is one of Olivia Hussey's first films and she, along with the rest of the cast did superbly here.
