Better Late Than Never: Review

starstarstarstar
Bridget (Kimberley Partridge) is the orphaned daughter of a very rich couple. Her grandmother (dead before the film begins) has left her a fortune and the news that either Nick (David Niven) or Charley (Art Carney) is her grandfather (Grandma slept with both of them and never was sure which one was the father). Bridget is to choose between Nick, a down-and-out song-and-dance man working a Riviera nightclub, and Charley, a failed New York photographer. In spite of the talent among the cast and creative team, the movie misses. Director-writer Bryan Forbes's other scripting and directing achievements include some highly regarded work (screenplays for COCKLESHELL HEROES and THE L-SHAPED ROOM, for instance, and directing THE SLIPPER AND THE ROSE; INTERNATIONAL VELVET; and THE WRONG BOX), but this offering is thoroughly predictable. Niven, in one of his last appearances, manages to do what he could to lift the material, and Carney can always be counted on to deliver a solid performance. leave a comment
