HOLIDAY FOR LOVERS
(20th Century-Fox-CinemaScope) G Cert. ‘7 HIs gallimaufry introduces Clifton Webb as a consulting psychologist whose two daughters lead him a dance through the flossier Brazilian tourist resorts. Perhaps some _ real *psychologist some day will get around to analysing the decline of Mr Webb’s screen persona from the omni-competent Mr Belvedere (who stood no nonsense from anyone) to this. current mishmash of henpecked ineffectuality. Apart from the dents which it inflicts on Mr Webb’s dignity, Holiday suffers from a fatuous script, and Mr Gary Crosby is another of its liabilities. But some of the photography is fine and architectural students may well think the glimpses of Sao Paulo’s avant-garde skyscrapers and interior décor all too fleeting.
