Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
