Too much of everything

Please don't spend money on this.

A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Any film with Walter Slezak is a potentially interesting movie, and "Come September" with its attractive photography and clever film editing, is no exception. In this one, Slezak has an opportunity to speak Italian. In one of the film's cleverest sequences, he mistranslates Rock's protestations to the police. His Italian is fluent but still spoken with his characteristic German accent. And as usual, he is a sheer delight. Bobby Darin is much less amusing. In fact, he's as boorish as usual. I wasn't enamored of the strident Miss Dee either, but Lollo is exquisitely clothed and dishabille. Good old Rock looks appropriately confused, but there's some clever directorial work at the climax in which Rock and the police gesticulate on one side of the train window to the silently mouthing Lollo on the other!

This is a classic movie. It is filmed in Italy and showcases some beautiful sites. The cast is chosen wisely. Rock and Gina are stunning together. They also showcase their own comedic elements which is refreshing to see. They make Italian references which are quite funny too. The movie is a great asset to buy. It is around $8.49 which is a great deal. This is a great investment financially. Overall, this movie has elements of comedy, romance, friendship, etc. There is everything for the whole family to see and its appropriate for little kids to watch. Check out the filming locations!

The one thing I would criticize in "Come September" is that we don't see enough of the incredible Bobby Darin! It would have been great to see more of him. Although this was his first starring feature role on film, and his role was the "junior" or "juvenile" lead, his talents way outweighed his opportunities to show his stuff here. Otherwise, Gina Lollobrigida was beautiful, as always, and the scenery was fabulous! I wish we'd had more songs from Darin in the show (the version I saw on DVD credited him with a "Come September" theme song, but I have not heard it - is there a recording?). Also, gotta love Slezak! All in all, a wonderful escape from a sometimes stressful and dreary world. We need more movies like this and more movie stars whose performances and appearance help to lighten the load for us all. That is the immeasurable value of the entertainer! They help to give us our dreams!

Come September is a unique comedy, sparkling with the touch of the Italian summer, American opulence and oriental moods. A must see for people who love cinema and want to keep smiling. This escapist saga is about two people who are in love but cannot get married due to various reasons, the principal one being the hero's unpreparedness. Paradoxically, the time he really decides to tie the knot, he faces the most bizarre week of his life which leads to another September, god knows, how many more.The best part of the film is that it leaves a lot to the imagination, at at the same time guarantees that you go home feeling good, having spent some quality time. Icing on the cake is the beautiful Italian landscape , it evokes both a sense of grandeur and nostalgia, though Mulligan has ensured that the film does not become a tourist's guide to Portofino and Italian Riviera.The film is a showcase for Lollos beauty and pneumatic appeal and Rock's masculinity. Assistance in the form of the comic skills of Walter Slezak makes this film a laugh riot in the climactic scenes. This is Lollobrigida's biggest hit in the US and India, and deservedly so; Rock Hudson makes a great partner for her, much as he was doing in this early 60's era with Doris Day in many films.Childish it may be, Come September is loved even today. I have spent many afternoons viewing the film and admiring the Italian sun.. it acts as an relaxant in my otherwise busy work schedule
