Recensione in evidenza
A British comedy; A story about a hesitant, inexperienced young couple negotiating the 'permissive' society. This film is a spin-off from a British sitcom, but it eschews the two television series as background to tell the story of unlikely lovebirds. It is set against a backdrop of greater sexual freedoms and independence in the early 1970s and has a theme about women growing in confidence, aspiring to true parity with men in their sexual and professional lives, and the complications of desire at the same time. Its setting in the North West of England lends a weightier frankness about a female in that region at that time-her likely prospects based on the working class norms-that the young and married often become marginalised because of the domination by the male once they become married, leading to motherhood at a relatively young age and possible domestic drudgery. It is a gauche comedy, entertaining thanks to actors Richard Beckinsale and Paula Wilcox, and innocent fun for the naive and clumsy interplay and playful courting. Wilcox combines being prude with a Northern tint of bourgeois snobbery, while Beckinsale is wonderfully vulnerable and helpless as he veers between laddism and romance nervously. The film isn't directed with much panache, and it is a slight story, but it has quaint dialogue.
