This movie isn't the next great movie of the world, but it's not all bad either. Joan Plowright and Peter O'Toole play Lord and Lady Foxley, a rather snobby English couple that has nearly run out of money.

It's catchy--perhaps even too catchy (I'll have to songs stuck in my head for days sometimes)--and fairly clever, with good lyrics. The script alone would give it a solid B, but with the music, I'll say A-
