What a delightful movie! Thank you so much for reaching out to us about it; it was a joy to see you and a joy to see the film. We cackled all the way home about it.
You're welcome! It was a pleasure. I really enjoyed not just seeing a movie in a theater, but seeing a movie in a theater with people.
Van Heflin really did steal every scene he was in, which was impressive given that everyone else in the film is also doing their level best to steal every scene, and having a wonderful time doing it.
"I should be on the stage—I'm a good actor, eh?"
(Becca says I should tell you, though, as I told her afterward, that he looked juuuuuust enough like Art Garfunkel to distract me. They don't even look all that alike, but it was just enough somehow to be a slightly surreal extra layer.)
