Something's going on in Canary Wharf between the multi-hatted M. of the title Sophia Loren and Indian doctor Peter Sellars, who doesn't want money or romance. There's nothing wrong with the acting of either, though something about Wolf Mankowitz's script or Asquith's direction makes the film feel clunky.
Made by Fox in the UK, thus the likes of Alastair Sim, Dennis Price, Alfie Bass, Pauline Jameson, Derek Nimmo, a briefly glimpsed Roy Kinnear; plus Vittorio de Sica. Shot by Jack Hildyard in clunky CinemaScope. It was a George Bernard Shaw play. I wonder if that was clunky?
