Standout Aspects

Cinematography

Glorious location shooting that basically IS the movie.

Costume

Haydée Politoff's endless wardrobe changes for doing nothing.

Best for:Solo: When you want to feel like you're on vacation without moving.·Background: Gorgeous scenery you can zone in and out of.
Heads up:Sexual Content: 1960s European 'liberation' with dated gender politics.·Triggers: Casual colonialism treated as picturesque backdrop.
