CGiii Comment

Sometimes everyone just needs a sweet little movie to while away the hours.

And this is it - a fantasy with Marilyn Monroe.

It's a soft portrayal of coming to terms with the harshness of life...seen through the eyes of a young boy - working in a bar.

Religion, racism, alcoholism and desire are all presented, gently.

It's a shame that this little film slipped through the net...because, it delivers a fine message - life goes on.
