Arabella (1967 Mauro Bolognini)

Rare Films Day, beginning with from-video dubbed Italian comedy, somewhat cropped unfortunately.

Minuses: Lack of plot and laughs. Thankless role for James Fox.

Pluses. Virna Lisi in an array of gorgeous 20s costumes. Four Terry-Thomases and a Margaret Rutherford. Giancarlo Giannini pretending to be gay. Funny, bizarre score from Morricone.
