Country: GB
Technical: col/scope 84m
Director: Ken Annakin
Cast: David Tomlinson, Laurence Harvey, Jimmy Edwards, Shirley Eaton, Jill Ireland, Lisa Gastoni
Synopsis:
Three friends decide to hire a boat and sail up the Thames to Oxford, encountering hazards, challenges and fair maidens along the way.
Review:
Anemic pictorialisation of an English classic, unsuited to Cinemascope in spite of what one might think. The exquisitely turned understatements of the original become clunky visual comedy.
