So after 50 years, last night I watched THE AMERICANIZATION OF EMILY.
I had seen so many UNFUNNY and USELESS Glenn Ford WWII "comedies" that I thought this was just another one of them......I didn't really pay attention to the fact that it was written by Paddy Chayefsky...which makes all the difference.
I enjoyed it very much.....some really great performances by James Garner, Julie Andrews, James Coburn, and Melvin Douglas....and a funny appearance by Steve Franken
