It's enjoyable...
... however I had one big gripe with this.
The Ball. It was outrageously long. Most of it was really pointless, and so much dancing, more dancing, and yet more dancing. Ruined what could've been a great film.
The budget for all the costumes must have been astronomical. The people looked good in the film, being well dressed. The settings and buildings were good to look at, especially the interiors.
The acting in this was superb. Burt Lancaster delivered a really good performance. Another likeable character was Angelica's father.
Loved learning about the history from that time period. Sicily is a fascinating place.
This film is a one time watch.
