I wasn't too big of a fan.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't much of a fan, either....
ReplyDeleteStill, I'm sorry the dude is dead.
Then again, he WAS 88, so.......
The only three Blake Edwards films I can think of without hitting IMDB are "A Shot in the Dark", "Operation Petticoat" and "S.O.B." The first two I love, the third I haven't seen since I was a kid, and I can't help but wonder if I were to see it as an adult if I'd have a better understanding an opinion of the satire of the movie biz it presented.
