Notes et avis

Some my say that it should be remade because it's black and white but it was done so well, how could a remake better the original? Adding colour, sex and bad language would kill the charm. Sometimes remakes are just not required.

A classic fairy tale, that may have some cliche, predictable moments, but it's strengh lies within the great performance of the characters.

Great and funny comedy/romance from the greatest actress of all time and one of the great male actors, Gregory Peck.
