The Reluctant Debutante (1958) Review
I just love this movie. It's one I watch over and over.Sandra Dee plays Jane, a young American woman who goes to London to live with her father (Rex Harrison) and new stepmother, Lady Broadbent (Kay Kendall). When Lady Broadbent finds out her snooty relative Mabel Claremont (Angela Lansbury) is launching her daughter in the very last London Season, Lady Broadbent is determined that Jane will have a perfect coming out. Though Jane tries, she is bored to tears by the dull men she meets, until she sees a gorgeous drummer with a very questionable reputation.
This is a very humorous movie, and one of the first that Sandra Dee was in, so this is a great flick for fans of her work (another of my favorites with her is "Gidget"). Rex Harrison, as the charmingly tolerant father & husband, is probably best known for the roll of Henry Higgens in the movie of "My Fair Lady," and if you liked him in that classic, you'll likely enjoy this movie as well. And of course, a much younger Angela Landsbury is very fun to watch as she and Kay Kendall play off each othr as highly competitive but exceedingly polite social rivals.
This is a great one to watch with your girlfriends, or your mother/daughter, or to just curl up on the coach with some good ice cream on a Sunday afternoon. Being a movie from the 1950s, it's very tame, with no course language or nudity, and the sexual content doesn't go beyond a few kisses, though there are a few implications when Lord & Lady Broadbent speculate on what could be keeping their daughter out so late with her young man.
I'd also recomend it to those who enjoy the subtle dry social wit of the recent movies based on the works of Oscar Wilde: "An Ideal Husband" and "The Importance of Being Earnest".
