Nothing remarkable here.

It would be nearly impossible to fail with a movie based on a George Bernard Shaw play starring Sophia Loren and Peter Sellers. But somehow director Anthony Asquith manages to do just that.This movie intends to be a socio-political satire and a romantic farce. Rather than trying to hit both marks, the director attempts to find a path halfway between the two, thereby missing both. Combining satire and farce requires skilled direction; ironically, Stanley Kubrik did so brilliantly with Sellers in 'Dr. Strangelove'. Mind you, I could spending 90 minutes watching Sophia Loren reading the phone book. When she's on the screen (especially in this movie) it's impossible to notice anything else that might be going on in the scene; so please forgive me if I missed something.There are a few genuinely funny moments; my favorite being when Sellers attempts to give away "free money" on a street corner in a poor neighborhood. However, it seems the director is holding Sellers back on a tight leash.Despite my lackluster review thus far, I definitely recommend watching this. Upon examination, 'The Millionairess' is "anatomically interesting beyond question"; (quoting Dr. Kabir). The style is quite forward-trending, considering it was released in 1961. It beckons the Brit-pop of the mid-'60s. The sets, costumes, etc., although quite stagey, are nonetheless effectively interesting. -- "In conclusion..." ...watch it!

This is a very unique film. Definitely not of the norm comedy. A role very unusual, yet, quite interestingly portrayed by Sophia Loren. I didn't think I would enjoy it as much as I did. I am a great admirer of Ms.Loren. A great beauty, and a wonderful, unique talent that is distinguished by none other. All the great talents poses a quality that makes them stand apart and speak to us in their individual way.And of course, the wonderful Peter Sellers. Who else could've done this role with such humor, believability, heart and sweetness. I've been an admirer of his for a long time as well.I found myself taken back to simpler time and into this silly, funny, outrageous film. Yet, with meaning that bears paying attention to. It left me with a silly smile and a bit of thought to boot.If you don't give something a chance....you won't have the opportunity to expand your thinking. And, you just never know.....you may like something that you didn't think you would.

Sofia Loren was 26 when this film came out. She was as gorgeous as I have ever seen her in any other film, and more than any still photo. The man behind the camera really knew how to capture the dynamic way her speech and movement showcased her looks.

Lol!! This movie is odd, humorous...and oddly humorous.
Seriously, towards the middle it got really funny & had some really sweet moments. I liked it!
