Review of The Americanization of Emily (1964) by Brent C — 30 Jul 2014
An excellent sort of dark comedy set in the days leading up to and during D-Day. Garner is totally perfect as the wise cracking, sarcastic laid back naval officer. He is more interested in finding hard to find commodities and taking care of the Admiral than fighting any war.
The writing is excellent, Julie Andrews is great as Garner's love interest and Coburn and Douglas are also great in supporting roles. The last thirty minutes are wonderfully ironic and just perfect.
