THREE MEN IN A BOAT
(Romulus-Lion International) G Cert. | "FREELY adapted" from the wellknown book (which I’m afraid 1 haven't read), by Jerome K. Jerome Three Men in a Boat is pleasant enough I suppose if you like the less restrained sort of comedy, and the settings on and beside the Thames of a more leisurely past are pleasant. But personally I very soon tired of seeing almost every incident played with the brakes off. Even those who like ham don’t want an hour and a half of nothing else. Still, I did get a few laughs out of itI liked the cricket match with such oldtimers as A. E. Matthews at the wicket The three men who go for a boating holiday are Laurence Harvey, David Tomlinson and Jimmy Edwards, the girls they meet are Shirley Eton, Jill Ireland and Lisa Gastoni, and Ken Annakin directed.
