A Touch of Class (1973 Marvin Frank & co-scr)

It doesn't work now - was it ever funny? Certainly not Segal in a pathetic sulk in Malagar. Then Glenda Jackson being the happy mistress in Soho? Tut, tut Ms Jackson, what were you thinking? Not helped by yucky songs or a grubby print.

Glenda won the Oscar, and the screenplay - believe it or not - was nominated.

Nadim Sawalha, the hotel clerk, was in tons of stuff (more recently Syriana) and is the father of Julia and Nadia.
